Simone Biles turned heads as she got clicked with her gymnastics rival Rebeca Andrade in Madrid recently. Yes, right next to her toughest competitor, Simone flaunted the biggest smile ever. And then, how can we forget her kind gestures? Whether bowing down to Andrade on the Paris podium or patting a child to sleep in an orphan home in South Africa, she has the purest heart. But lately, something went down that clearly didn’t sit well with the gymnastics G.O.A.T. Even from her social media post about it, you could tell she was not happy. So, what exactly happened?

Simone Biles is back at the base, her hometown, Houston, after a brief visit to the Spanish capital for the Laureus Sports Awards. There, the acronym of G.O.A.T. that’s given to her came alive as she was honored with her fourth Sportswoman of the Year award this time. After all, she has carved an irreplaceable place for herself in the sports world. And not just there, Simone is a well-respected and loved celebrity even beyond the gym mats. However, despite her star status, she got caught up in a nasty situation recently. In fact, judging by her tone, she might have been downright furious too. Here’s how it all unfolded.

On April 28, Simone Biles added an Instagram story detailing a bizarre encounter she had with one of her cab drivers. She shared the whole story online saying, “Not my uber driver yelling at me, but when he sees my neighborhood, he starts complimenting, “how nice the houses are,” & when he drops me off, he said ‘I’m so happy you live here and not in those scary places.'” This entire encounter perhaps left Simone Biles furious. She even revealed the ‘good guy behavior’ that the driver later turned on, when he saw the neighborhood she lived in. But Biles? She wasn’t buying it.

Simone Biles continued describing her reaction and her counter-measure in her social media rant about this episode. “Boy wtf, literally zero stars for you buddy,” she wrote. Looks like instead of dragging the argument deeper, Simone Biles decided to stick to the right way, which was to leave feedback on her ride. That’s just so practical! Maybe all she needed was a quiet ride back home, but this incident left her irritated enough to leave a narration of it on social media.

Well, let’s not forget that Simone Biles is not just America’s most decorated gymnast with 11 Olympic medals and 30 world championship medals, she is also a star personality. In 2022, she received the nation’s highest civilian honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom. And just days back, Biles received the TIME 100 Impact Award in New York City, making it to the TIME 100 most influential list. And when a thing like this happens, it’s sure to leave many thrown aback. And mind you, this was just hours after Simone Biles added a story hinting that she was out and about with her husband, Jonathan Owens. We’re guessing she might have been in a great mood until this happened.

Just hours before this ordeal, Simone Biles added a story that she was out on a movie date with Jonathan Owens. She added a snap of the two enjoying a night of cinematic entertainment, reclining in a movie theatre. Well, she was off to Madrid and that called in for a few days of distance. And Owens had to support her achievement from back home, while he hosted a watch party for his NFL squad as it was draft night recently.

However, moving past this incident, there is another date night on the cards for Simone Biles and JO. Yes, a lot is in the books for Simone Biles fans to look forward to. In Madrid, she announced an upcoming shared appearance of hers and JO, as the two are all set to show up at the MET Gala 2025. That said, the event is just a day before their second wedding anniversary, which led the gymnast to confess, it’s going to be a date night! But before we get to that, what do you have to say about this incident that recently went down with Biles? Let us know below!
