Simone Biles shared some photos to her social media page this week that show apparent changes she has made to her look.
Biles shared three photos of herself in a bikini. She is lounging on a day bed in what appears to be a poolside-type setting. The Olympic champion had husband Jonathan Owens with her in one of the photos, and she had tagged the location as San Pedro, Belize.
Here is a before photo from two years ago for comparison:
There is little doubt that her body has changed. The question is whether or not this has any foreshadowing about her gymnastics future.
Biles, 28, has not stated yet whether she will attempt to compete in the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles. The gymnast has competed in the 2016, 2020 and 2024 Olympic Games and has taken home 7 gold medals, two silvers and two bronzes. She has also won 30 World Championship medals.
A change like that to her body might signal she does not intend on continuing to compete. We’ve seen how this sort of thing can negatively affect athletes.
