WILLIAMS REVEALS LOVE WOES ONLINE

Tennis superstar SERENA WILLIAMS has written an emotional account of her heartbreak online, after she was ditched by a mystery boyfriend. The sportswoman-turned-fashion designer - who famously dated movie maker Brett Ratner - is usually discreet about her love life, and has kept news of her other partners under wraps. The candid revelation appeared on her website for a few days, before it was removed after media outlets began reproducing it. She writes, "He tells you he adores you., He tells you u (sic) guys were meant for each other. You care for him. You are falling for him... You feel this could mean forever. (Then) It happens. Not the 'L' word. But what you have been most afraid of. He stops calling." Her heartbreak comes as she prepares to defend her Australian Open title at the Melbourne tournament which began on Monday (13Jan08).
