The “Suits” alum, 41, was nowhere to be seen at the tennis champ’s baby shower, despite Williams, also 41, planning the same event for Markle in 2019.
The 23-time Grand Slam winner shared a YouTube video Monday, in which she and her husband Alexis Ohanian revealed they’re expecting a second baby girl.
Although it’s possible the Duchess off Sussex asked not to be filmed in order to conceal her attendance, she couldn’t be seen in the video, or any social media posts from the bash.
Page Six has reached out to reps for both Markle and Williams.
In the sweet vlog, the couple’s 5-year-old daughter, Olympia, was seen getting ready for the joint baby shower, noting that she was “team pink.”
Her mom chimed in, “I’m a little nervous because I don’t have any contingency plan if it turns out to be a boy.”
For the big reveal, the athlete donned a white tee paired with a pink miniskirt that exposed her growing bump.
Meanwhile, her tech entrepreneur husband opted for an X-Men graphic tee and black shorts, seemingly hinting that he was hoping for a boy.
Inside the party, guests were seen walking through a rainbow-colored balloon arch where they were met with plenty a food, a dance floor and places to sit and chat.
Back in 2019, Williams helped organize the Markle’s baby shower at the Mark Hotel in New York when she was pregnant with son Archie.
“Planning something like that takes a lot of effort,” the tennis ace told the Business of Fashion.
“I’m a perfectionist, so I’m like, ‘Let’s make it perfect.’”
The pair became fast friends after meeting for the first time at the 2010 Super Bowl in Miami.
Williams was in attendance at Markle’s 2018 royal wedding to Prince Harry, while the former actress flew to New York to watch her pal compete in the US Open the following year.
When Markle and Harry stepped back from their royal duties and relocated from the UK to California in 2020, Williams showed her support for her longtime friend
“Meghan Markle, my selfless friend, lives her life — and leads by example— with empathy and compassion,” she tweeted in 2021 on the eve of the couple’s tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey.
“She teaches me every day what it means to be truly noble. Her words illustrate the pain and cruelty she’s experienced,” she went on.
“I know first hand the sexism and racism institutions and the media use to vilify women and people of color to minimize us, to break us down and demonize us.
“I want Meghan’s daughter, my daughter and your daughter to live in a society that is driven by respect.”
