Iconic American tennis player, Serena Williams and her daughters were denied entry into a restaurant in Paris.
The retired tennis champion criticized a luxury hotel in Paris on Monday evening, August 5, for being “denied access” to the hotel’s rooftop restaurant along with her children.
Serena, who served as a torch bearer at the opening ceremony of this summer’s Olympics, wrote on X: “Yikes @peninsulaparis I’ve been denied access to rooftop to eat in a empty restaurant of nicer places … but never with my kids.”
“Always a first.” She added on a hashtag for the Olympics.
Williams first arrived in the French capital in late July, ahead of the Olympic opening ceremony in which she participated as a torch bearer.
Williams won four Olympic gold medals over the course of her career.
