Despite Road to Paris, Simone Biles Not in Contention With Olympic Legends

The 2016 Rio Olympics was a one-of-a-kind event for the women’s gymnastics team of the US, especially Simone Biles. Being just 20 years old, she was a crucial member of ‘the final five’. The team also boasted gymnastic greats like Aly Raisman, Gabby Douglas, Madison Kocian and Laurie Hernandez. Beyond the competition, the women have been sharing beautiful camaraderie since training days.

Having said so, though the game has long ended, the friendship remained intact until this date. Oftentimes, the girls reunite for a fun night, especially Biles, Raisman, and Hernandez. It was nothing short of surprising to see how the fellow athletes extended support at the time of Biles’ ‘twisties’.?Undoubtedly, they strengthened their bond more with each passing day. In the same vein, a recent photo has surfaced, which took the netizens down memory lane.?

Simone Biles’ Rio teammate has a special update

Recently, the three comrades who bonded over the Olympics, reunited for a fun night. The Hernandez, being the youngest of the three, is also the goofiest. Posting pictures from their day out on her Instagram, the 23-year-old took her fans back to 2016, when the US team clinched gold.

Hernandez took to her Insta handle to post a frame-worthy picture featuring the three gymnasts standing next to each other. Captioned the post as, “cheese!” The youngest was in the middle, with one arm around the 29-year-old and another around the 26-year-old Olympian. In response, Biles shared the post as her Insta story with the caption, “2016” with a teary-eyed emoji. It was clear that the gymnastic line-up reminded her of the most memorable event of her life.

The picture boasted the 4X Olympic gold medalist on the extreme left, donning a white blazer over a black rib knit. Hernandez had a black and white combination as well, and to balance both of them out, the retired gymnast sported a chocolate brown attire.

The Olympian, not skipping her signature trend, made an appearance with Raisman this time. Usually, it’s her favorite Zoe Miller in the frame with her. But for a change, the two fellow Rio Olympians got ready with each other, but not for the competition.

GRWM for the night

Ahead of her 2024 Paris Olympics, the 26-year-old Olympian isn’t taking her fellow competitors lightly. But in this case, there’s no competition as both her girls are not Olympic participants anymore. In a recent video, Biles shared a screen with the 29-year-old in a ‘grmw’ trend. She captioned the post as, “Getting ready together again, but not for a competition this time. #bittersweet #riololympics2016 “. The sweet part in her caption indicated the event as a whole and the amazing friendships.

The video starred the two gymnasts in their bathrobes, grooving to the beats of “Greedy” by Tate McRae. They instantly transitioned into their fashionista selves in a jiffy while several fans hopped in to drop comments like “OG GOATs” and “you two are legends”.
