Tennis star Serena Williams has poured out her heart on the break up of her relationship with Jackie Long in an extraordinary internet blog.
Jackie Long and Serena are age-mate– Long is a film actor, writer, musician, director and producer. He is also a voice actor for Grand Theft Auto V.
In an emotional 600-word account on her official website, the tennis legend revealed how she fell in love with Jackie Long, only to have her heart broken when her boyfriend (who she doesn’t name) stopped calling and finally told her he ‘needed space’.
In a blog headlined ‘Stand in these shoes (I’m sure u have before)’, Serena Williams wrote of her experience meeting someone she wanted to ‘spend every second’ with.
“You can’t stand being without each other”, she wrote. “You start to feel like you have never felt before, and you do things for him you have never done before.

“He tells you he adores you. He tells you u guys were meant for each other. You care for him. You are falling for him. “You take things slow. You don’t want to make any mistakes. You are feeling this and you feel this could mean forever.”
The despatch is all the more remarkable because the tennis star has until now, been famously silent on the subject of her relationship with Jackie Long.
