Simone Biles’?remarkable comeback in 2023 has cemented her status as one of the “greatest of all time” in the world of sports. She has had back-to-back victories in the women’s qualifications at the World Championships and the women’s team final at the 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Antwerp. Biles has graced and aced the stage leaving her fans in awe. However, her favorite fan seems to be missing all the action.
Back in Houston, more than 5,000 miles away from Antwerp, Ronni Biles aka Baby Biles, has been diligently supporting her aunt in the most adorable way. Just a few weeks ago, Simone and Simone’s sister-in-law, Sammi Biles, shared a heartwarming picture of Ronni. She wore a matching leotard with her aunt. It was the same as the one worn at the National Championships. Now, as her beloved “TT” continues to make history in Antwerp, Baby Biles has shared yet another heart-warming surprise that has set the gymnastics community abuzz.

In a recent Instagram story, Sammi Biles posted a video of Baby Biles in her crib, playfully engaging with her dad, Ron Biles II. Two colorful rings, the same ones used in men’s gymnastics as an apparatus, dangled above her crib. Baby Biles, attempted to lift herself up on these rings, a sight that touched the hearts of many. Sammi accompanied the video with a touching caption, “watching TT & wanting to be like her,” tagging Biles.
In her subsequent story, she shared another video, still in the crib with the rings, and added, “Covid may have taken over our household, but little miss is a fighter.” This update referred to recent health concerns as Baby Biles had to be taken to the ER due to symptoms of the “cold, flu, rsv season.” Sammi also expressed her pride in TT, Biles, Joscelyn Roberson, and C?cile Landi for their dedication and remarkable success, giving a special shout-out to the WCC team. This video came shortly after Simone Biles, part of Team USA, led the charge in Antwerp during the World Championships Team Finals, securing the gold.
