She wrapped up from the cold in a tailored black coat and a coordinating handbag, while adding sparkle to her look with gold Mary Jane flats.

The mother-of-one finished her stylish look with a classic red lip and beamed and waved as she left the party.

Serena and Maria had a long-standing rivalry in the tennis world, beginning two decades ago when Maria beat Serena to win Wimbledon in 2004 at 17 years old.

However, Serena secured victory in the following 19 matches between the athletes, with their last match taking place in the 2019 US Open.

The two tennis icons have long since buried the hatchet however, previously posing together at the 2021 Met Gala, and being seen catching up at the Valentino show on Sunday.

Maria retired from the tennis in 2020 after five Grand Slams and a total of 21 weeks ranked number one by ATP.

In September 2022, Serena stepped away from tennis but referred to her hiatus as an ‘evolution’ rather than a retirement.

She won 23 Grand Slams in singles, 14 Grand Slams in doubles and two majors in mixed doubles as well as three Olympic gold medals in doubles and one in singles  across her storied 27-year career.
