“I’m Really Excited for Her”- Simone Biles Close Friend Weighs In on Her Paris Olympics Appearance Plans After Marriage With Jonathan Owens

Simone Biles is arguably the greatest gymnast the world has ever seen. At 25, the American has won everything there is to win in her sport. Her status is so legendary that she has not one but FOUR gymnastic tricks named after her. She left her fans in awe every time she performed, and they always wanted to see more.

Biles has been away from the sport for over a year now. Fans across the globe have just one question on their minds: ‘When is Simone coming back?’

Aly Raisman weighs in on Simone Biles returning for the Olympics

Yahoo Sports brought forth a fast-paced talk show called ‘The Rush.’ Jared Quay plays the host, as he fills our needs for sports news by keeping them short, simple, and funny. The show targets mobile and other wired audiences and covers a range of topics from NBA, gymnastics, soccer, etc.

In a recent episode of the show, Quay invited American gymnast Aly Raisman. Raisman is a former Olympic champion who competed at the 2012 and 2016 Olympic games before retiring. Incidentally, she was America’s most decorated gymnast at the 2012 games, with two golds and one bronze medal. She and Biles share a close bond and often spend time together.

During the episode, Jared asked Aly about her thoughts on Simone Biles’ return to the Paris Olympics. “I am sure she’s putting in so much thought into it. So, I think either way, I’m really excited for her, I’m curious. I don’t even know if she actually knows the answer yet. So, I guess we’ll have to wait and see,” said Raisman.

Notably, Aly and Simone were teammates during the 2016 Rio Olympics. While Biles won four golds and one bronze medal in her debut Olympics, Raisman won one gold and two silvers in her last Games. During the games, Raisman and Biles set the perfect example of the symbolic passing of the torch, with one gymnast making her debut while the other making her last appearance.

Biles on her future

The now 25-year-old Simone says she already achieved her wildest dreams when she won four gold medals at the Rio games. In the following games, Biles withdrew from most events because of mental health issues and has since been away from the sport. Talking about a return to the sport, Simone once mentioned she would want to see what more she was capable of.

But, the gymnast has been enjoying life outside of the gym for over a year now. Speaking on a potential role as a coach, Biles said she didn’t know if she was ready to be a coach yet. At 25, Biles says the world is her oyster, and she doesn’t think she has to have it all figured out.
