A partner’s birthday is something the couple celebrates with joy. Coco Gauff found herself in such a celebration as she wished her boyfriend, Jalen Sera, his 22nd birthday. The American star aimed to keep her dating life out of the public eye, but being a public figure makes it quite difficult. Gauff has thrown all caution to the wind in her online interactions with Jalen Sera.
Sera has been featured on Gauff’s social media many times and always leaves heartwarming messages for the artist. He congratulated her for her appearance in Time Magazine and also praised her tennis posts, showing their evergreen banter.
She recently took to her Instagram story to share a congratulatory post for her boyfriend. She shared a selfie of her, Sera, and Sera’s twin brother, Terrence, taken by Sera as the three sat in a park. She wrote the caption, “Happy birthday, @jalensera @iamterencejt 2️⃣2️⃣!!🎉🎉💙“. Sera then reshared Gauff’s Instagram story to add to his compilation of birthday wishes.
While Gauff achieved a 6-0, 6-0 win against Arantxa Rus in the Madrid Open, she did not forget to wish her beau amidst her celebrations. She now looks forward to playing against Dayana Yastremska in the round of 32. She aims to achieve a better run in the clay swing while still celebrating her partner.
Sera showed similar dedication to Gauff when she celebrated her 20th birthday in March. He shared a message that was tailor-made for the US Open champion.
Coco Gauff receives an ‘Avatar’ wish from Jalen Sera as she crosses teens
As world number 3 made her run in the Indian Wells Masters, she made her way to the semifinal. She achieved her first win on her birthday, making the day one to remember. However, another instance made it even more special for her. She celebrated her birthday in her home country after reaching the quarterfinals of the BNP Paribas Open. Just after her birthday, she posted about turning 20 and how far she has come.
Many wished her on her birthday, but Sera’s wish stood out. He commented, “Happy birthday, Ms. Waterbender,” and related the 20-year-old standing in water as a character from the cartoon series Avatar. She also responded with an Avatar lingo to the message, “@jalensera Thank you, Mr. Earthbender!”
Although the two are not outspoken about it, their banter online essentially confirms a romance. It is not bound to stop anytime soon, and Gauff will likely confirm her relationship with the 22-year-old artist soon. For now, she celebrates his birthday.
