Family Drama as Serena Williams Sends Stepmother, Lakeisha Packing from Home

Lakeisha Juanita Williams, the stepmother of Serena Williams, has alleged that the tennis star ordered her and the son from her marriage with Richard Williams to leave her home.

Serena’s step mother is out of love with the Williams family, so much so that her divorce from Richard has been contentious since June when he filed for a divorce.

In June, the 75-year-old father of famed tennis players, Serena and Venus Williams, filed for divorce from Lakeisha who is his third wife after seven years of marriage.

Now Lakeisha says Serena’s legal team has ordered her out of the Palm Beach house in Florida which the new mom owns with her father with immediate effect.

According to TMZ reports, Lakeisha claims Serena’s people are ‘requesting she and the child vacate the home and threatened to change the locks in the court documents. Richard is the father of 5-year-old Dylan Williams who is also Serena’s half brother.

Richard claimed she moved out last year and left their now 5-year-old son, Dylan, in his exclusive care. But Lakeisha says she’s the one raising their son, adding that school teachers would back up her claims.

Meanwhile Serena just had a baby girl with her fiance on September 1.

Lakeisha is also asking the court to force the sale of another property they own together because she needs the money to take care of Dylan. Lakeisha said that Richard has ‘health issues’ and could die, and is concerned his money would be tied up for years while the court decides who gets what portion of his estate.
