From ELLE

  • Meghan Markle is hosting another celebration in honour of her baby shower in New York City today with a number of A-list guests.

  • Serena Williams, who's been friends with Meghan for years, is one of the expected attendees and reportedly helped organise and is co-hosting the event.

  • The tennis star shared a photo in the bathroom from the hotel where the party is taking place ahead of the soirée.


Meghan Markle's baby shower is officially underway in New York City, but before the party began, Serena Williams, who's reportedly a co-host of the celebration, shared a laid-back selfie from inside the venue.

The shot doesn't include The Duchess of Sussex, but it does show the tennis champ in the bathroom, flaunting a pair of black track pants from her eponymous clothing line that read "I am beautiful I am strong" down the side.

"Even on relaxing day I often need to remind myself I am beautiful and strong," Williams captioned the post. "I seriously am grateful for these pants. I needed them today."

Serena shared a two-photo slideshow of herself posing in the all-black casual look. In one of the shots, she holds up her fist and shows off her muscle.


The snaps were taken from inside The Mark Hotel, where Duchess Meghan's royal baby shower is reportedly taking place. The design of the bathroom and the monogram on the towels in the background of William's photo gave it away. Plus, she wasn't seen entering the hotel like the other guests (like Amal Clooney and Gayle King) this afternoon-a hint that she was already inside.

Williams was also seen out with the Duchess of Sussex last night for dinner at The Polo Bar, Ralph Lauren's restaurant in Manhattan. They were joined with the royal's close friends, Jessica Mulroney and Markus Anderson.

The star athlete wore her own line for the evening outing too: a plaid colour block the coat and black high-waist leggings.
