Martina Navratilova celebrates as JD Vance reportedly denied entry to UK club after staff mutiny

Martina Navratilova reacted to US Vice President JD Vance reportedly being denied entry to a UK Club. The same venue seemingly hosted Kamala Harris a few days ago.

Navratilova is one of the most prominent names in the tennis community, but she is also known for voicing her opinions on political matters and personalities.

The staff of the British countryside pub, The Bull in Charlbury, Oxfordshire, reportedly rebelled against Vance after he tried to dine there. According to reports, the staff arranged a mutiny and said they wouldn't work at the restaurant if they accepted his dinner reservation.

Just a few weeks before this incident, The Bull reportedly hosted Kamala Harris.

A user on X shared the report, which caught Navratilova's attention. The American legend rejoiced, and penned a bunch of 'clapping' emoticons.

"👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼"

Martina Navratilova recently dropped a reaction to Melania Trump's $1B warning to Hunter Biden for dragging her name into the Jeffrey Epstein controversy.

Martina Navratilova slams JD Vance for saying he wants peace amid the Russia-Ukraine conflict

US Vice President JD Vance recently discussed the USA's plan to terminate funding for Ukraine, and emphasized the importance of resolving the differences through peaceful means.

Donald Trump is set to meet with Russia's president Vladimir Putin in Alaska, on Friday, August 15. Ahead of this, Vance revealed the above-mentioned plan in a conversation with Maria Bartiromo on Fox News.

"We’re willing to use those to bring about peace...I think the president and I certainly think that America, we’re done with the funding of the Ukraine war business. We want to bring about a peaceful settlement to this thing. We want to stop the killing," Vance said.

This did not sit right with Martina Navratilova, who did not mince words in sharing her honest opinion about Vance's statement. Questioning his position as the vice president, she shared her thoughts on X:

"He is vile. And has achieved absolutely nothing before being picked for VP. He is the true DEI hire…"

Shortly before this, Martina Navratilova also bashed Donald Trump for mistakenly describing Russia's second-largest city while he was accusing the media of purposely working together to ruin his reputation.
