Being present on the red carpet is a statement in itself. It did show that even if she is going through a lot of problems in her life, she isn’t shying away from taking a dip into the fashion scene. Recently, Chiles also attended her very first TV interview with TODAY, where she talked about her mental state after getting her bronze Olympic medal taken away due to a decision made by CAS.

Opening up about the ongoing controversy
Getting stripped of an Olympic medal is just devastating for any athlete who has dedicated their life to achieving glory at the pinnacle of sport. For Jordan Chiles, such an incident unfolded in the floor exercise finals, and until now, she has been fighting the CAS to get back her hard-earned accolade. The gymnast sat down with Hoda Kotb and gave an honest view of her emotions, stating, “Honestly, it’s been really, really hard to comprehend everything that’s been happening.”
While asserting these statements, she was also trying to hold her tears back as this incident has taken a big toll on her mental health. Kotb also stressed the fact that the CAS took her bronze medal because her coach, Cecile Landi, was just four seconds late to the 60-second deadline to appeal about Chiles’ score. The journalist also wanted to convey that for her it “seems like a judge’s issue,” rather than putting the blame and pressure on the athletes involved in this whole fiasco.

Furthermore, the gymnast talked about her mentality, stating, “It’s hard to tell yourself everything is going to be fine when you know you feel like literally didn’t do anything wrong. Everything was very right, everything was in the time that needed to be, and for them to comeback and say that this was four seconds late when we’ve had proof, we’ve had everything that really can show that everything was right.”
Chiles is determined about herself and her coach that they didn’t make any error that could’ve resulted in such controversy. She also credited her fans, who have been backing her up since this incident, and gave out her piece of gratitude for the support.
