At the 2024 ESPY Awards, Serena Williams delivered a lighthearted jab at her close friends Prince Harry and Meghan Markle during her hosting duties. As the Duke and Duchess of Sussex arrived at the event, Williams couldn’t resist acknowledging their royal status with a playful remark.
Taking the stage, Williams stated that “it’s actually quite often that she’s in a room with royalty.” With a sly look at the couple, she jokingly said, “But remember, tonight’s mine!” Williams then added, “But please, Harry and Meghan, try not to breathe too much tonight. Because this is my night and I don’t want to be overshadowed by accusations you guys are taking up too much oxygen.”

The Duke and Duchess reacted positively to the joke, albeit a bit awkwardly, and laughed when the camera showed them in the audience. Williams and the Sussexes have been close companions for many years, with the tennis legend first encountering Meghan at the 2010 Super Bowl.
Despite the dwindling social circle of the royal couple, they beamed with pride knowing they still had the support of their longtime friend Serena Williams. The event was a celebration of athletic achievements, but it also showcased the camaraderie and humor shared among the high-profile attendees.
