Serena Williams is one of the finest sports stars of all time. The Williams sisters had great support from their parents growing up. Almost everyone is aware of Williams’ father Richard’s impact on their professional lives. Oracene Price, their mother, is one individual who is frequently overlooked. She is all set to embrace the early stages of her new life as a full-fledged parent in honor of her mother’s courage. The American star once wrote the most amazing letter for body positivity.
Serena Williams’ appreciation letter for her mother Price.
After giving birth, the athlete sent an emotional tribute to her mother, Oracene Price, on Reddit and thanked her for all the hardship she has gone through while raising them.
What is the letter about?
In the letter Williams compliments her mother for being the toughest person she knows and expresses fondness for her newborn daughter’s strong physique, one that is similar to Williams’ dominance on the court.
Williams then addresses all the horrendous rumors she has had to deal with throughout the years.
“But mom, I’m not sure how you did not go off on every single reporter, person, announcer, and quite frankly, hater, who was too ignorant to understand the power of a black woman.“
Williams continued by citing other injustices and body shaming that she has experienced over much of her life.
“We don’t all look the same,” she said. “We are curvy, strong, muscular, tall, small, just to name a few, and all the same: we are women and proud!” She said.
Williams is a doting mother to her daughter, Olympia.
Serena Williams is one of the toughest individuals in the world but she never trades quality time with her daughter. Serena occasionally treats her daughter to a match with the sport. At other times, they enjoy dancing or playing various games.
