Simone Biles, the 4’8” tall athlete but a giant in gymnastics, always has something exciting to share. From incredible somersaults at home to jumping double her height on an international stage, she has left the world in awe of her spotless skills. The intellectual and thoughtful responses she gives on several sensitive issues speak volumes about the level of awareness and maturity she has developed over the years. However, she is a sweet little girl at heart.

Simone and her sister, Adria, were adopted by her maternal grandparents in their early childhood. They have shared a great rapport ever since. Their social media handles are flooded with pictures of the sister duo. Interestingly, they both share strikingly similar looks. In a resurfaced tweet, Simone shared a problem with Adria and made a hilarious request to her.

Simone Biles appeals to Adria

The Biles sisters spent their childhood in foster care until Ron and Nellie, their grandparents, adopted them. Although Simone is only two years older than Adria, she is too protective of her sister. Adria, too, reciprocates the love and care Simone shares with her.

She took to Twitter to make a comical dig at her sister in 2018, “I would give my heart for you 💛 but please stop growing up!!! 😭 “ and shared two pictures. They are seen displaying beaming smiles. Adria and Simone share a deep and meaningful connection.

Sometimes it becomes inevitable to get confused between the two as they share similar appearances. Well, they are different vertically. Yes, Adira is taller than Simone. She wouldn’t stop growing, and safe to say, that once bothered Simone.

Simone shared in an interview that Adria knows how to make her smile even when she’s angry. Adria also shared that Simone doesn’t stay mad at her, though she stays mad at everyone else.

Simone’s height is a plus

Biles not only strives to fine-tune her skills as a gymnast but also attempts to develop as an individual. With time, she has learned to embrace her body and has put an end to lying about her height just to feel taller. Simone’s height works in her favor. Her short height makes it easier to have a competitive rotation speed.

Biles’s new coaches, the French husband and wife team of Laurent and Cecile Landi, said the gymnastics legend’s body is a perfect fit for the sport. Also, she has great speed and incredible pace in her run. These make her stand out and help in scoring more points.
