Serena Williams gave a very cheeky answer when asked about her friendship with Meghan Markle in a recent interview.
WATCH: Serena Williams jokes she’s never heard of BFF Meghan Markle
Speaking with supermodel Naomi Campbell in her YouTube series, No Filter with Naomi, the former world number one tennis player wasn’t giving anything away about her friend’s recent move to the US.
Naomi asked: “Are you happy that your girlfriend’s moved to America? Meghan Markle?”
“Don’t know what you’re talking about. Don’t know nothing about that,” Serena replied while laughing.
“I mean, they’re on the West Coast,” Campbell continued. “It’s a big deal!”
She joked: “Never seen it, never heard of her, don’t know her.”
Meghan’s friendship with Serena goes way back to long before she joined the royal family.
Williams and her husband Alexis Ohanian attended Meghan’s royal wedding in Windsor, and the tennis ace even hosted Meghan’s baby shower.
Serena has spoken out in support of Meghan in the past, and at a Wimbledon tennis conference in 2019 expressed concern about the negative press surrounding her royal pal.
“I didn’t know there was negative media out there. Any time I see her name attached to anything, I don’t read it,” she said. “She couldn’t be a better friend to me. Low moments, high moments, she’s always there, and that’s all I want to be to her.”
