Simone Biles, the 7-time Olympic medalist, has been inactive in the competition since her withdrawal from the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. In the meantime, she has been vacationing and enjoying her time off-arena. Currently, in Cancun, Biles posted a fabulous pool picture on Twitter with the caption that read, “work hard, travel harder”. The post garnered a hilarious response from one of her fans.

In a reply to the tweet, the fan asked her to be careful and not drop her engagement ring into the water. They likened the scenario to when Kim Kardashian lost her diamond earring in the ocean in an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians. “Okay but be careful wearing that diamond in that pool. We don’t want this…. 😂”, the tweet said with a gif of the incident attached.

Kardashian’s diamond earring

Back in 2011, the entire Kardashian-Jenner household was on a family vacation in Bora Bora. Kim Kardashian was present with her then-husband, Kris Humphries, the KKW mogul. As a practical joke, Kris threw Kim into the ocean, causing her to lose her $75,000 diamond earring.

Understandably, Kim was endlessly flustered at the loss of her ring, making everyone scramble around looking for it. Meanwhile, Kim was getting consoled by Kris Jenner. This incident led to the birth of, debatably, the most iconic line ever said on the show. Kourtney Kardashian chipped into Kim’s hysteria with a “Kim, there’s people that are dying.” There have been innumerable references to this clip over the years.

In the end, Kim kept crying over the ring until Kylie Jenner found it, ultimately saving the day.

Simone Biles’ engagement ring

Gearing up for the wedding, Simone Biles got engaged to Jonathan Owens, a football player for the Houston Texans in the NFL. The couple announced their engagement earlier in the year after nearly two years of dating. 

Jeweler Zo Frost, who also posted a close-up of the blinding ring on his Instagram, designed the engagement ring. The diamond is a 3-carat rock with F color and VVS2 clarity. Certainly, losing this gem in the pool would not be a pleasant experience for the athlete couple.
