Simone Biles made several twists and turns to be named the most decorated gymnast of all time, and her family celebrated her victorious achievements with a dinner by the Seine River.
The 27-year-old athlete, who brought home three gold medals and one silver medal, unfortunately did not have time to celebrate with her loved ones due to obligations to the press, according to her mother, Nellie Biles. She told People on Sunday, August 4, that they can only talk to Simone through FaceTime and chat almost daily.
As a result of her return «to the village», - her family will be able to spend time with her on Tuesday, August 6.
For the greatest gymnast in U.S. history, this is considered her comeback after she withdrew from the 2021 Tokyo Olympics due to «twists» issues. She noted on the «Call Her Daddy» podcast that the incident really affected her. «If I could have gotten on a plane and gone home, I would have. But as soon as I landed, I thought, 'Oh, America hates me, the whole world is going to hate me, and all I can see is what they’re saying on Twitter right now.' That was my first thought», - she said.
«I thought I was going to get banned from America, because here’s what they tell you: 'Don't come back unless it’s gold. Gold or nothing. Don’t come back,'» she continued.
Her mother recalled to People, now understanding where her daughter is currently. «Those times were really dark and stressful. To go through that and be in this place where she’s enjoying what she’s doing… it’s rewriting her story. It’s rewriting her on her terms, because she’s in this place she may have dreamed of for many years».
Now she is finally where she wanted to be. The gymnast posted on Instagram after her four major victories and wrote, «more than in my wildest dreams»
