In case you weren\u2019t one of the millions of viewers that tuned into the 2025 Super Bowl, Kendrick Lamar<\/strong><\/a> headlined the Halftime Show \u2014 but his longtime beef<\/a> with Drake<\/strong><\/a> took center stage. As many expected, Kendrick performed his hit diss track against Drake, \u201cNot Like Us,\u201d which includes a lyric that directly mentions former tennis pro Serena Williams<\/strong><\/a>. At one point during the February 9, 2025, performance, none other than Serena herself came out as a backup dancer, prompting the entire internet to wonder if Drake and Serena ever dated in the past.<\/p>\n Below, Hollywood Life<\/strong> has compiled everything we know about Serena and Drake\u2019s past relationship.<\/p>\n From Compton to NOLA. @SerenaWilliams<\/a> @KendrickLamar<\/a> #AppleMusicHalftime<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/mnzuP7fJ1N<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 NFL (@NFL) February 10, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Yes, Drake and Serena dated in the past. The retired tennis player and the hip-hop artist kept the details of their relationship private.\u00a0In August 2015, a source told Hollywood Life<\/strong><\/a> that the athlete and the rapper had \u201cbeen on a slow burn for a few months now.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThey have known each other for years, and there has always been a spark, but the timing was off,\u201d the source said. \u201cDrake was always saying to her, \u2018When are we going out?\u2019 Serena never seriously thought Drake was interested in her like that though.\u201d<\/p>\n Multiple outlets reported that Serena and Drake dated sometime between 2011 and 2015. It\u2019s unclear how long they were together.<\/p>\n footage of Drake making his song with Rihanna “Too Good” off Views, he reveals to his mom that it’s about Serena Williams<\/p>\n she responds “I gathered that” \ud83d\ude02<\/p>\n \u2013 via 100gigs pic.twitter.com\/SUMZlcU4Vl<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 SOUND | Victor Baez (@itsavibe) August 7, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Neither Drake nor Serena has ever revealed the reason behind their breakup. However, the \u201cHotline Bling\u201d rapper confirmed that his 2016 track \u201cToo Good\u201d was about his and Serena\u2019s relationship. A video<\/a> of Drake discussing the song surfaced on X in 2024.<\/p>\n \u201cI get heavy on a couple joints, but this is more about me and Serena,\u201d Drake said. \u201cIt\u2019s funny because when I make songs about women, I also make songs for them. So, I know what kind of song to make. If I\u2019m gonna talk about them, I\u2019ll at least do them the justice of making them a song that they like. So, I know Serena very well, and I know that she\u2019ll hear it loud and clear, but she\u2019ll also not hate me for it because it\u2019s lighthearted.\u201d<\/p>\n The lyrics of \u201cToo Good\u201d aren\u2019t as \u201clighthearted\u201d as Drake claimed, though. The song describes someone that he felt was taking advantage of him.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m too good to you \/ I\u2019m way too good to you,\u201d Drake raps in one verse. \u201cYou take my love for granted I just don\u2019t understand it.\u201d<\/p>\n In another verse of the track, he claims the unnamed person had \u201chigh expectations,\u201d then he looks back on the time they had together.<\/p>\n \u201cYears go by too fast \/ I can\u2019t keep track \/ How long did we last? I feel bad for asking,\u201d Drake raps in another verse. \u201cIt can\u2019t end like this \u2026 And I wanna tell you my intentions \/ I wanna do the things that I mention \/ I wanna benefit from the friendship.\u201d<\/p>\n Serena has been married to her husband, Reddit co-founder Alexia Ohanian<\/strong><\/a>, since November 2017. They share two daughters<\/a> together named Alexis Olympia Jr. and Adira River Ohanian.<\/p>\n \n\t\t<\/div>\n\n
