“Simone’s like a big sister to me.” Best friends are your biggest cheerleaders in every aspect of life, but having your best friend by your side in the same sport? That’s a whole new level of sisterhood! Just look at Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles! These two have been each other’s support system since they first roomed together for the World Championship team trials back in 2018. Fast forward six years, and their bond is stronger than ever—truly unbreakable!

The Biles-Chiles duo has always had each other’s backs, both on and off the mat. Just look at what went down during the 2024 Paris Olympics! Jordan Chiles kicked things off in fifth place, coming in behind the Romanian duo, Ana Barbosu and Sabrina Voinea. After a nail-biting appeal, she snagged a bronze medal thanks to the incredible difficulty of her skills. But then, bam! She got stripped of that medal. Through all the ups and downs, Biles stood right by her side like a true bestie, showcasing just how strong their bond really is!

Simone Biles becomes Jordan Chiles’ biggest rock during Olympic medal controversy

Simone Biles jumped right in to support Chiles when her medal was taken away, backing her up through the tough times. In a chat with PEOPLE, she expressed how unfortunate the situation was, something that’s never happened in gymnastics before. While she wished all three girls could’ve gotten a medal, she was there for Chiles every step of the way!

And if that wasn’t enough, Simone Biles took to X on September 17 to back up her bestie. She called out the chaos the Paris 2024 officials caused, not just for herself but especially for Jordan. While she brushed off her loss to Rebeca Andrade, she made it clear how much this situation hit Chiles. Always standing by her WCC teammate!

But wait, there’s more! Chiles, supported by the US Olympic and Paralympic Committee and USA Gymnastics, filed a new appeal to overturn the ruling that stripped her of the floor routine medal at the Paris Olympics. Here’s the twist—she’s got fresh video evidence from a Netflix crew that was filming Simone Biles during the Olympics! Who knew Biles’ comeback documentary could help Jordan reclaim her bronze? Talk about full-circle teamwork! Biles has truly had her friend’s back, both on and off the mat!

Other times when Biles played a crucial role in Chiles’ gymnastics career

It all began in 2019 when Jordan Chiles was ready to hang up her leotard for good—yep, you heard that right! After not making the Worlds team, this Oregon girl was at a crossroads. But everything changed when she decided to move to Houston and join the World Champions Center to train with the legendary Simone Biles at her parents’ gym. With her eyes set on the 2020 Tokyo Games, it marked the start of an epic comeback!

While Jordan has been vocal about how much she loves training with Simone, especially before the Tokyo Olympics, she shared that it brought back the joy of gymnastics for her, saying, “She really encourages me and just amazes me.” And there’s more! Earlier this year, during an Instagram Live, a fan asked Jordan to describe her relationship with Simone in one word. Without hesitation, she replied: “Unbreakable.” Honestly, that couldn’t be more spot-on!

This is just the start of their awesome friendship, always cheering each other on! So, who’s your ride-or-die and what do you think of their unbreakable bond? Spill the tea!
