Serena Williams wants to get married!

The World No 1 tennis star has revealed that she desperately wants to settle down in life and have a family of her own.

She believes that her time will come.

While conducting a question-and-answer session with her fans on Twitter, the 18-time Grand Slam winner said that looking after people before putting herself first is her worst habit.

Williams added that if she wouldn't have taken up tennis as a career, she would have wanted to act.

The American tennis star, who was dating her coach Frenchman Patrick Mouratoglou for about two years, recently confirmed their break-up on Twitter saying, "To answer all your questions I'm single and I have been single so the speculations can stop".

Judy Murray has been eliminated from Strictly Come Dancing post dance-off with fellow competitor Sunetra Sarker.

The 55-year-old tennis coach, who's been admitting from the start that she's the worst dancer on the show, was in the bottom two with the 'Casualty' actress, and had to face a dance-off where she and partner Anton Du Beke performed their Viennese Waltz again while Sarker danced their Samba at Blackpool's Tower Ballroom with her partner, the Mirror reported.

Craig Revel Horwood, Darcey Bussell and Bruno Tonioli including head judge Len Goodman, all chose to save Sarker, and tennis champ Andy Murray's mom thanked fans for their support so far.

Partner Anton said that Judy's enthusiasm had made the whole experience "enormous fun" for him, and the tennis coach thanked him for his sense of humour.

Meanwhile, Ball was forced to apologize for Len Goodman, who had supposedly muttered the f-word in astonishment after Simon Webbe's performance.
