Gymnastics and Simone Biles cannot be separated. The 2025 US Classic had proved it. Following her dominant performance at the Paris 2024 Olympics, Biles has taken time off to focus on her personal life, traveling, and enjoying a break from elite competitive routine. But when you have seven Olympic gold medals in your showcase, it’s hard to keep yourself from the sports. Turns out, the GOAT wasn’t done yet, the 2025 US Classic saw Simone Biles pick up right where she left off…
About an hour ago, before the Classic began, Biles was updating her Instagram stories. Her last story before the classic started featured her wearing a gray Miu Miu tank top with sleek straight hair, glossy makeup, and silver jewelry, striking a kissy-face pose. But before all of that, there was another story that read, “we’re baccckkkk” and the tagged location showed Illinois, Chicago. What followed had the fans screaming in the US Classic.
The 2025 U.S. Classic is being held at the NOW Arena in Hoffman Estates, Illinois (a suburb of Chicago) on July 18–19, 2025. Now, as the event unfolded on 19th July, 2025, the camera panned on a certain somebody who had the fans going gaga. USA gymnastics captured the moment and posted it on their X handle, writing, “Check out who is at #USClassic presented by Saatva!”. It was none other than Simone Biles and her husband, Jonathan Owens, marking their presence in the arena. The tweet featured her posing alongside her former teammate, Joscelyn Roberson.

The 11-time Olympic medalist also posted a picture of the NOW Arena on her Instagram story. “my lil babiessss @josc_roberson and @dulcycaylor,” she wrote in her follow-up story. She also dropped six white heart emojis as she captured the two just before they got ready to go off on the mat.
