Serena Williams and Bianca Andreescu are about to play the US Open final and the American will have a special fan at the Arthur Ashe Stadium: Megan Markle.
Why Meghan Markle decided to fly to New York to see the final
It’s well-known that Serena Williams and Meghan Markle share a special friendship. According to reports, their first interaction was at the 2010 Super Bowl in Florida where they clicked immediately. According to Megan “what connects us more than those things is perhaps our belief in exceeding expectations, our endless ambition.”
Therefore the Duchess of Sussex didn’t miss Serena’s final in Wimbledon and she also wants to support her friend at the US Open.
Apparently, Meghan will stay in New York just for the weekend to then come back home. Of course, she chose to fly on a commercial flight as usual.
