Richard Williams – 80 Years Old

Richard Williams was previously an American tennis coach and the father of tennis greats Venus and Serena Williams. After watching Virginia Ruzici play on television, he decided that his daughters would be tennis professionals and wrote a plan. He began giving them lessons and took them to public courts to practice when they were about four and a half years old.

Williams withdrew them from a tennis academy in 1995 to focus solely on coaching them. By 1999, Serena Williams had won the US Open; the following year, her sister, Venus, won the 2000 Wimbledon title. In November 2021, his biographical movie was released, which received critical acclaim.

Richard Simmons, 74 Years Old

After losing a significant amount of weight in the ’70s, Milton Teagle “Richard” Simmons decided to make money from helping people get back in shape. The ever-flamboyant trainer opened his studio, which was a big hit because of how it welcomed all sizes and encouraged healthy ways to attain fitness.

Simmons quickly became popular in the local scene, and soon, he frequented TV shows. He is best known for his videos called “Sweatin’ to the Oldies.” While many people thought he died following his retreat from the limelight, he is actually alive and tries to lead a quiet life these days.
