Serena Williams Admits to Using Weight Loss Medication

Serena Williams has revealed she’s been using GLP-1 medication to manage her weight, opening up about her health journey after retiring from tennis.

The 42-year-old tennis legend recently shared that she turned to GLP-1 treatments, a class of drugs that includes popular names like Ozempic and Wegovy, to help her maintain her health and balance after stepping away from competition.

Williams, who retired in 2022 after one of the most dominant careers in tennis history, said the medication has been a tool in adjusting to life after sports. Her honesty comes as more celebrities publicly acknowledge their own use of GLP-1s for weight loss and wellness.

Fans have praised Serena’s transparency, while others debate the growing trend of athletes and entertainers using such drugs to manage their bodies post-career.

Even off the court, Serena continues to spark conversation — this time about health, balance, and the pressures of body image in the spotlight.
