Serena Williams‘ romance with Brett Ratner has come to an abrupt end after the
director spent a week partying in New York with Sean ‘P. Diddy’ Combs, Jay-Z and Jermaine Dupri.
The pair had been enjoying a low-key relationship for quite some time, but
tennis ace Williams became increasingly frustrated with Ratner always being
away from her.
So after meeting up with Ratner at April’s Delray Beach, Florida, FedCup
tennis match between her sister Venus and German player Els Callens, Williams
inquired about what he’d been doing in the Big Apple for a week, prompting the
answer, “I was hanging out with Puffy, Jay-Z and JD, Jermaine Dupri… Give me
some love. Show me that you care.”
After becoming agitated with the filmmaker’s constant attempts at getting
affection, Williams blasted, “I’ve been home for three weeks and I’ve asked you
nicely and kindly not to come for [just] 24 hours. You come on Saturday and you
leave on Sunday and I’m sorry but that’s just not good enough for me. I’m very
sorry…
“I don’t wanna be [your girlfriend]. I wanna see other people… We don’t
have a relationship. It’s too bad things didn’t work out between us.”
Acknowledging the presence of cameras – shooting footage for the Williams
sisters’ new reality show Venus & Serena: For Real – Ratner asked, “Is this the
break-up episode?”
His attempts to kiss her again for a “Nick [Lachey] and Jessica [Simpson]
moment” were blocked by Williams, who had at least one happy memory from that
afternoon–her sister won the match.
