The 23-time Grand Slam winner took to X to publicly complain about the treatment she received at The Peninsula Hotel on Monday, sharing her annoyance at the way in which her visit went down.

Sharing a snap of the hotel, she wrote alongside it: 'Yikes. @peninsulaparis I've been denied access to rooftop to eat in a empty restaurant of nicer places but never with my kids. Always a first.'

A member of staff at the hotel's rooftop restaurant, Maxime Mannevy, has reportedly claimed that Williams looked 'unrecognisable', according to her colleague who was working at the time.
