  Looks like "King" Richard's empire is crumbling. Will Watchtower, or his millionaire JW kids help him?

  AILING “King Richard” Williams has turned to his faith as a Jehovah's Witness in the bitter divorce battle with his estranged wife, whose in $600k debt and is on the cusp of losing the family home where Serena and Venus grew up.

  Good grief his son in law is a billionaire!!! Those girls would be nothing without their Dad, whatever their present relationship.

  Time and again sports scientist studies have shown the difference between a good sportsmen and a great one is parental support during childhood. Parents often spend every waking moment to ensure the success of their young prodigy (or gies, in his case!)

  I thought the story, from years ago, was that their mother was a JW but their father was not? And he was the one who pushed them to become tennis players not their mother. Is it true that their dad is a JW, did he become one recently, or is this a mistake? I find that most media “facts” turn out to be wrong. I would suspect they made a mistake here and it’s the mother not the father who is a JW. As for the rest of the “facts” in the story, who knows.
