If there’s one person Meghan Markle can count on to not discuss her personal life with the media, it’s Serena Williams. Because everyone knows that the two are close friends, Williams gets asked to dish about Meghan from time to time — and the tennis icon is very good at sidestepping these kinds of questions. What’s more, she also looks like a total bada** in the process.

A few weeks after Prince Harry and Meghan told the world that they would be stepping down from royal duties, Williams competed in the Australian Open. In a post-match press conference, a reporter went for it and asked about Harry and Meghan’s exit. Williams would not take the bait. “Yeah. I have absolutely no comments on anything with that,” she said, per TMZ. “But good try. You tried. You did good.”

She brought a similar energy to Naomi Campbell’s “No Filter with Naomi” in 2020. The supermodel was curious about what Williams thought about Meghan and Harry’s move to Los Angeles, but Williams wouldn’t let out any details. When Campbell asked Williams if she was happy that Meghan was back in the United States, Williams replied, “Don’t know what you’re talking about, don’t know nothing about that.” Campbell pressed a bit, saying that it’s a “big deal,” but Williams refused to budge. “Never seen her, never heard of her, don’t know her,” she answered and proceeded to whistle to signal the end of the conversation.
