Serena Williams appears at Met Gala-related events in New York alongside figures associated with the British royal circle, prompting renewed online speculation about her relationship with Meghan Markle. Multiple reports say Williams stepped out for social events around the Met Gala and posed for photographs with Edward Enninful and Emma Thynn (also reported as Emma Weymouth, Marchioness of Bath, depending on the outlet’s naming). Earlier in the weekend, one outlet reported that Williams attended a pre-Met Gala party with the Marchioness of Bath. The coverage focuses less on a specific dispute and more on fan commentary that Williams’ appearances with these individuals suggest her friendship with Meghan is “cooling.” Another outlet ties the speculation to additional images from the Met Gala itself, again noting the company Williams keeps and highlighting that the conversation has intensified “in recent weeks.” None of the articles provide new statements from Williams or Meghan addressing the situation, and the reports present the public reactions as speculation rather than confirmed information.
