Serena Williams’ recent slimmed-down appearance amid her postpartum weight-loss journey has sparked fan speculation that she may be using Ozempic.
The 43-year-old tennis superstar has been showcasing her toned and svelte physique in social media posts, stunning fans with her transformation.
On Wednesday, the mom-of-two — who retired from professional tennis in 2022 — shared an image of herself on a private plane wearing a black tank top that highlighted her lean arms.
And in a video from earlier this week the athlete — who recently denied claims she’s bleaching her skin — looked slimmer-than-ever as she showed off her dancing skills in a black tennis dress and neon green shorts.
‘Ozempic anyone,’ one fan wrote, in reference to Hollywood’s favorite weight-loss drug.
‘As a full-time athlete didn’t lose weight or get lean somehow she’s retired and she looks more in shape than she was when she played. Can somebody say Ozempic,’ another wrote.

‘That Ozempic weight loss medicine ain’t no joke,’ another wrote.
Someone else referenced her caption, which read ‘Instagram Vs Reality…’, and wrote, ‘Reality is Ozempic.’
‘My Queen are you ok? You look very skinny,’ another asked. ‘She losing a lot a weight,’ one more commentator chimed in.
The comments continued, with another fan writing, ‘Ok, cheekbones!!!’ and ‘Slim & trim looking great.’
‘Looking beyond fit lady S.’
Someone else added, ‘U lost weight sis looking good.’
‘She looks great. Slightly thinner but still very toned.’
‘Snatched,’ yet another person wrote.
Serena has been keeping her fans up to date during her post-partum fitness journey.
In May, nine months after giving birth to her second child, the Olympic gold medalist took another shot at fitting into her Valentino denim skirt.
‘Ok everyone, I have been working my [peach emoji] off!’ Williams captioned the clip. ‘Let’s see what happens with my jean skirt. Can I fit it yet? Check it out!’
She squeezed into the skirt in front of her mirror, getting caught on her butt as she attempted to pull it up.

Although Williams said she’s ‘been gym-ing alot,’ she doesn’t think ‘the needle is moving.’
‘It’s getting there,’ she said, showing the progress before ultimately giving up and pretending to cry.
‘I just wanna cry,’ said Williams. ‘But I’m not. I’m just gonna stop eating all those snacks.’
Williams was met with praise in the comments section by friends and fans who thanked her for sharing her weight-loss journey.
‘Thank you for doing this and showing that it’s a process after giving birth for world class athletes,’ wrote Octavia Spencer. ‘You’re even more stunning and real!’
Williams previously revealed it was her ‘goal’ to fit into the Valentino skirt in another video she shared in January.
‘I got this cool Valentino skirt when I was pregnant and I was like, “I’m gonna be able to fit this when I don’t have a belly,’ she said at the time. ‘I can’t fit it.’
‘But this is my goal. Honestly, I should’ve been able to fit it by now, but I ran into some, um… I got distracted for about a month,’ added Williams.
The 23-time Grand Slam winner welcomed her second child, daughter Adira River, with husband Alexis Ohanian in August.

Williams turned 43 in September and she has been off the tennis court for two years since her swansong at the 2022 US Open.
She is widely regarded as one of the greatest tennis players of all time. She held the WTA’s No 1 women’s ranking for 319 weeks of her career.
Her run from the 2002 French Open to the 2023 Australian Open was legendary, with Williams winning all four singles Grand Slam titles and beating older sister Venus Williams in every final.
She won her last major tournament at the 2017 Australian Open. Williams finished her career one Grand Slam singles title shy of the all-time record, 24, which is held by Margaret Court.
