Serena Williams shut down her bоdy-shаming critics as she made a stunning appearance at the Wimbledon Champions’ Dinner, alongside Novak Djokovic, showcasing her remarkable figure in a form-fitting peach gown.
Following her impressive win over Garbine Muguruza, the 33-year-old six-time Wimbledon champion looked radiant at the London event, arriving in a floor-length gown that accentuated her silhouette. This victory also made Williams the oldest-ever Wimbledon champion, further solidifying her remarkable career and bringing her closer to achieving a calendar Grand Slam.
Earlier, J.K. Rowling had defended Williams after a troll criticized her physique, sharing photos of Serena in a flattering red dress and dismissing the body-shaming comment with a sharp retort. Rowling praised Williams as an exceptional athlete and role model, and her supportive comments resonated widely on social media.
At the event, Novak Djokovic, who recently celebrated his own Wimbledon win, attended with his wife Jelena, marking his first wedding anniversary. Jelena tweeted Serena before the event, letting her know that Novak had requested a champions’ dance, which was a highlight of the evening.
The dinner saw both Williams and Djokovic, who won his third Wimbledon title, posing with their trophies, reflecting on their successful seasons and enjoying the celebratory atmosphere.
