Alright, let’s talk about this Venus Williams and Hank Kuehne thing. I heard about it from my neighbor, you know, the one who always knows everyone’s business. She said somethin’ about Venus, the tennis star, and this Hank fella, a golf player.
Now, I don’t know much about tennis or golf, to be honest. I’m more of a “watch the chickens peck in the yard” kind of gal. But from what I gather, Venus is a big deal, like, real big. Wins all sorts of trophies and stuff. This Hank guy, he’s good at hittin’ that little white ball into a hole, I guess. Seems like an odd match if you ask me, a tennis lady and a golf man. But hey, love works in mysterious ways, or so they say.

So, when did these two get together? Well, from what I’ve heard, it was around 2007. Yep, way back then. My old mule, Bess, was still kickin’ strong back then. Anyway, they say Venus and Hank, they were pretty serious. “Serious” as in, like, planning a future together, maybe even gettin’ hitched, you know? The newspaper folks, they called it a “serious three-year bond”. Fancy words for folks who ain’t never had to slop hogs, if you ask me.
- The Engagement Rumors: I even heard tell that they got engaged. Engaged! Like, put a ring on it and all that. But then, somethin’ happened. Don’t rightly know what. These famous folks, they’re always so hush-hush about their personal lives.
- The Breakup: By 2010, it was all over. Just like that. One minute they’re lovey-dovey, the next, poof! Gone. Like a fart in the wind. Makes you wonder what went wrong, don’t it? Maybe he didn’t like her serve, or maybe she didn’t like his swing. Who knows? It ain’t none of my business, I reckon.
- Hank Moved On: And then, this Hank fella, he up and married another woman, a gal named Andy, in 2011. Well, good for him, I say. Life goes on, even after you break up with a tennis star. That’s what I always tell my grandkids, “Don’t you go cryin’ over spilled milk, or a lost love.”
Now, some folks are sayin’ they got married in 2020. But that don’t sound right. He was already married to that Andy gal, wasn’t he? Maybe them internet folks got it all mixed up. You can’t trust everything you read on that there internet, you know. It’s full of stories, some true, some not so much. Reminds me of the time my cousin swore he saw a two-headed calf. Turned out, it was just two calves standin’ real close together.
Venus’ Career: Now, Venus, she kept on playin’ tennis, of course. Started young, she did. Fourteen years old, can you imagine? Why, at fourteen, I was already milkin’ cows and helpin’ Ma in the garden. This Venus girl, she was beatin’ grown women on the tennis court. That’s some kinda talent, I tell ya. She played her first professional game in somethin’ called the Silicon Valley Classic, beat some champion lady. Folks say she’s one of the best ever. And she’s got seven of them Grand Slam things. Whatever those are, they sound important.
Family Matters: I also heard somethin’ about Venus’ parents, Richard and Oracene. They got divorced in 2002, after bein’ married for a long time, 22 years they say. That’s a shame, ain’t it? Divorce is tough, no matter who you are. Happens to the best of ‘em, I guess. Even tennis stars’ families ain’t immune to it.
So, that’s the story of Venus and Hank, as far as I know it. A whirlwind romance, a breakup, and a whole lot of speculation. They were together, then they weren’t. He married someone else. And Venus, she kept on winnin’ tennis matches. Life’s funny that way, ain’t it? You never know what’s gonna happen next. One minute you’re pickin’ beans, the next you’re hearin’ about tennis stars and golf players. Makes life interesting, I suppose.
Now, I gotta go feed them chickens. They’re squawkin’ louder than a politician at a town hall meetin’. You take care now, ya hear?
