On July 22, following her first singles match in more than a year, Williams revealed that she is engaged to actor and former model Andre Preti. While speaking to WTA following her DC Open singles match, the tennis star, who sported a diamond ring on her left finger, called Preti her fiancé.

Venus Williams just announced her engagement to actor-producer Andrea Preti. The tennis legend, who has 49 singles titles to date including two U.S. Open championships and five Wimbledon titles, confirmed the happy news in a post-match interview after winning her first-round match at the 2025 D.C. Open on July 22.

Speculation about the couple’s status has been ongoing since they stepped out in Rome together earlier this year.
