It's difficult to hide anything from the media when you're a celebrity. And here's a little bit of proof: tennis champion Serena Williams may be dating her coach, in secret.

Except it's not secret anymore, given that it's been spreading around the Internet like wildfire.

Here's how the rumors got started: a piece in KpopStarz claims that Williams and her coach, Patrick Mouratoglou, were caught on the street in what seemed very much like a romantic night out. Apparently, the two were very handsy with each other, and after a little time in public the two retreated two a hotel room.

That doesn't sound like the usual rapport between an athlete and a coach... There may just be something going here. Something more than just tennis, anyway.

As well, Fashion & Style has a host of new images that have come to light from Instagram, showing off the coupling of Williams and Mouratoglou. While some of the photos seem like regular athlete/coach behavior- him watching her play, or talking to her behind the scenes at the U.S. Open, there's a lot of intimate looks and little touches present that don't normally exist unless there's romance involved.

Could they really be boyfriend and girlfriend? It's entirely possible. Especially given omages like the one above- which show the two looking like far more than a professional pair.

Along with some recent rumors that Williams is pregnant, it's been a busy year for her in the public eye. And in that regard, Sports World News also indicates that the tennis champ might be considering retiring from the game, but it's not clear if this has anything to do with her new beau- or, if she'll really be retiring at all.

Check back soon for the latest on Serena Williams- both in her tennis life and her love life.
