Serena Williams has a few more months to go before she’s officially a mother, but the women’s No. 1 ranked tennis player already has the “mama bear” thing down.

Williams, 35, is speaking out against racist comments allegedly made by Romanian tennis captain Ilie Nastase. During a Fed Cup press conference on Friday, Nastase — a Grand Slam champion in the ’70s and former world No. 1 — allegedly said of Serena’s unborn child, “Let’s see what color it has. Chocolate with milk?”

Taking a break from her babymoon with fiancé Alexis Ohanian, Williams addressed the incident on Instagram.

“It disappoints me to know we live in a society where people like Ilie Nastase can make such racist comments towards myself and unborn child, and sexist comments against my peers,” Williams wrote.
