“Sit Down and Make Some Rules”: Venus Williams Shares Sisterhood Advice From Her Experience with Serena

7-time Grand Slam champion Venus Williams has undoubtedly served as an inspiration to women across the world. Not only do aspiring players look up to her, but her history and legacy inspire the younger generation as well.

The story of Venus Williams is one that resonates with millions around the world. Though the 41-year-old has not been involved in tennis off-late, she has expanded her businesses and invested in many avenues in the meantime.

Her clothing line, Eleven by Venus, has its own Instagram page, where she recently interacted with fans.

Venus Williams introduces the ‘Sister Contract’

The official Eleven by Venus page recently posted an ‘Ask-Me-Anything’ tag on their story. They captioned it, “Drop a question below & have it answered by Venus herself!”

Immediately, fan questions came flowing in from all ends. While one fan asked her about her relationship status, another asked her what she would do if she could travel to the past.

Perhaps the most heartwarming question was when a fan talked to Venus about her own sister. “My older sister and I share the same age gap as you and Serena, but we can’t get along at all. Help?”

Venus helped out the fan with an answer as beautiful as her bond with Serena. She said, “Sit down and make some rules together on how you will treat each other and stick to it. The sister contract.”

She then talked about the happiness and beauty of sisterhood. “Nothing is more rewarding in this world than being a good sister, speaking from experience.”
