Serena Williams is enjoying her life after retirement. The 23-time Grand Slam champion bid adieu to tennis after playing in the last month’s US Open. It was just her fourth tournament after her comeback from a knee injury. However, with age not by her side, Serena felt that it was an ideal time for her to retire.

After playing her last match, the younger Williams sister has taken a much-needed break from her hectic life. Recently, she hosted a party where she had a creepy surprise for her guests.

The former World Number 1 took to Instagram where she shared some glimpses from her beach dinner party. In one of the pictures shared via a story on her official Instagram handle, a plate full of cockroaches ready to be served could be seen. Further, Serena captioned the picture, “Roach Anyone?”

However, one of her friends accepted Serena’s challenge of eating one. But she nearly vomited after trying it, saying, “I can’t – I’ll throw up.”
