Serena Williams revealed in an insightful essay published in Vogue last August her intention to step back from her tennis career and focus on nurturing her growing family. In her words, “Retirement has never resonated with me. What I’m embarking on can be better described as evolution.”
The tennis superstar firmly stated her prioritization of family growth over tennis accolades, stating, “When faced with the choice between enhancing my tennis legacy and expanding my family, the latter takes precedence.”
Serena Williams was candid about her health challenges after the birth of her first child, Olympia, in 2017. She recounted the postpartum period in an essay for Elle, revealing her alarming experience following a cesarean section. She recounted her fear of a pulmonary embolism due to a history of blood clots in her lungs.
Opening up about her medical history, she disclosed that her vulnerability to blood clots had haunted her since 2010. Her fears were heightened by the lack of immediate attention from hospital staff after Olympia’s birth. Nevertheless, her persistence paid off when her doctor was contacted, leading to critical examinations, multiple surgeries, and the discovery of several blood clots.
Williams underscored the sobering statistics that underscore the higher risk of maternal mortality among Black women in the U.S., emphasizing that many of these deaths could be prevented through proper medical attention and respectful treatment. She concluded by emphasizing the importance of listening to and valuing the experiences of every Black woman within the medical realm.
This heartening update is a testament to Serena Williams’ triumphs, not only on the tennis court but also as a resilient mother advocating for improved maternal healthcare for all.
