Loose Women star Judi Love jumped to tennis icon Serena Williams’ defence after trolls made cruel jibes about the tennis star’s second pregnancy
Loose Women star Judi Love jumped to Serena Williams’ defence after trolls made cruel jibes about her second pregnancy. The tennis star, 41, announced she is expecting her second child with husband Alexis Ohanian in May and debuted her bump on the Met Gala red carpet.
Serena revealed her pregnancy as she was interviewed at the Met Gala, confirming there were in fact three of them at the chat â herself, Alexis and the baby. Speaking to La La Anthony during a Vogue livestream, her husband and the interviewer offered to have a drink in Serena’s honour.
While most people were over the moon to hear the exciting news, some cruel trolls said Serena is having a “geriatric pregnancy” referring to a medical term that applies to any mum-to-be over the age of 35. Loose Women’s Judi called them out and questioned why the star shouldn’t welcome a second child at her age.
“Because Serena is 41, a couple of commenters have called it a ‘geriatric pregnancy’ but that’s out of order. I know it’s a medical term, but she’s a happy, healthy, beautiful woman who has had an incredible career,” Judi said. “Why shouldn’t she have another baby? You don’t see them calling it ‘geriatric sperm’!”
