It’s official: Baby Biles stole the show in Paris — and no, we’re not just talking about Simone’s gravity-defying flips and gold-worthy routines. While Simone Biles had the world on its feet at the 2024 Olympics, one tiny fan had the entire stadium wrapped around her little finger: her niece, Ronni, affectionately known as Baby Biles. Decked out in custom mini versions of Simone’s GK Elite leotards, Ronni wasn’t just attending one or two events — she was front and center for every single gymnastics competition, cheering on her “TT” with the same wide-eyed wonder she’s shown ever since she could first say the letter T.
According to her mom, Sammi Biles, the toddler lights up every time she spots Simone on TV, in commercials, or even on billboards. “She just yells out, ‘T! T!’” Sammi shared — and yes, it’s just as adorable as it sounds. But Ronni’s Olympic enthusiasm wasn’t a fluke — it’s part of a growing list of elite-level moments for the youngest Biles. From rocking her aunt’s black leotard from the 2023 Xfinity Gymnastics Championships to bouncing across the mats at the Biles family gym in Spring, Texas, Ronni is already showing signs of following in Simone’s golden footsteps. No pressure, kiddo — but the leotard does seem to fit.
The most recent update? On May 27, Sammi gave fans a heartfelt peek into her journey as a mother of two, sharing carousel photos of Ronni in full-on gym mode and penning a raw, emotional caption about the highs and lows of motherhood. “amazingly beautiful & can be really hard all wrapped together in a messy bow ,” she wrote. From navigating postpartum with a second C-section and a blood clotting disorder to the reality of zero paid maternity leave, Sammi kept it real. But above all, her words rang with love: “ain’t no hood like motherhood .” What should have been Auntie Simone’s spotlight, was now stolen by her niece in the post!
And with a spark like Ronni’s, it’s no wonder the family is beaming. But while Baby Biles is warming up, where is Aunt Simone? After August 2024, the most decorated gymnast has yet to show up on the mat. And the calendar shows that the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships is around the corner. So, what are the chances of her entering the contest after 2023?
Simone Biles still keeps it in the dark
With the 2025 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships drawing near, fans are asking the big question: Will Simone Biles compete again? If you’re hoping for a definitive yes, don’t hold your breath. In a candid recent interview with L’Équipe, Biles pulled back the curtain on her current mindset — and let’s just say, it’s less about medals and more about meaning. “I’m trying to enjoy life, travel, spend time with my husband, and really live as a woman,” Simone Biles shared her words, carrying the weight of someone who has already conquered the sport — and is now figuring out what joy looks like outside of it. And what about a comeback? She didn’t slam the door shut, but she’s not rushing through it either.
So, it’s a shift that feels both earned and empowering. After years of being defined by perfect landings, sky-high expectations, and global pressure, Simone is now embracing a chapter where success isn’t measured in scores — but in sunsets, slow mornings, and moments with her husband, Jonathan Owens. That doesn’t mean fans should stop dreaming — with Simone, surprises come standard. But for now, it’s clear: this season is about Simone the woman, not just Simone the gymnast. And whatever comes next, she’s already sticking the landing in life.
