Drake and Serena Williams have been spotted kissing while enjoying a romantic dinner date in Cincinnati, Ohio, on Sunday sparking rumors that the pair is dating again. Serena and Drake previously dated in 2011 and 2012.
Drake and Serena Williams sitting in a tree, K-i-s-s-i-n-g! Now the world knows why Drake has been attending almost every tennis game that Serena Williams has played in the past months – they are dating again.
TMZ has obtained a series of pictures showing Williams and the Canadian rapper kissing and caressing at a restaurant over the weekend in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Back in 2011, the pair was seen making out at a nightclub after her big win over Victoria Azarenka at Wimbledon. The rumored lovers split and reunited in 2012 and broke up again.
A source said:
“Publicly she says they’re just friends but Drake has been by Serena’s side throughout the tournament and when they’ve been away from the public and relaxed, it’s been pretty obvious that they are together. Even Serena’s team have been talking about it in the clubhouse to a few people they trust. She has been incredibly focused on her title bid. But if she’s had a quiet moment she’s spent it with Drake, even going to watch his Wireless set and having dinners in London.”
Some media outlets are not convinced that Drake And Serena Williams are dating. Their sources say that there is nothing serious going on here, just two young people having fun. An insider told Page Six:
“Serena briefly dated Drake around 2011 and even though it didn’t end that well, they have remained friends since. He has been at her side at a lot of tournaments recently, including Wimbledon in July, where he sat in her box next to her sister Venus. Serena is single at the moment and is focused on winning the US Open, and making history.”
Moreover, according to reports, friends of the tennis star are warning her, they do not think she should get too deep, too fast. However, the music sensation has indicated that this time around things are going to be very different. The “Started From the Bottom” singer wants to make the relationship work.
Serena Williams was previously involved with rapper-turned-actor Common, who has said in an interview that he thought Drake was going after him in some of his songs. The Oscar winner explained:
“Me and Serena was together. We broke up. I don’t know specifically her and Drake, it felt like obviously something was going on [after we broke up], I ain’t dwell on it too much. I ain’t have no problem with that, you do what you do. After a while I felt like in some of Drake’s songs he was saying stuff that was subliminal to me.”
