In her story, which contains a promo video by celebrity cruises, Biles wrote she was excited to be the godmother of the ship. In her role as godmother, Simone will name the ship at the official ceremony in Fort Lauderdale on November 4th.
“Simone is truly the G.O.A.T inside and outside of the gym, and I’m humbled and thrilled to welcome her as godmother of our newest ship Celebrity Beyond,” said CEO Lisa Lutoff-Perlo.
Biles is joining Nobel Peace Laureate Malala Yousafzai and Reshma Saujani in the list of godmothers to celebrity ships. Reshma is the founder of ‘Girls Who Code,’ and the ‘Marshall Plan for Moms,’ and serves as the godmother to Celebrity Apex. While Malala is the godmother to Celebrity Edge.
While the role of grandmother to a vessel is a longstanding maritime tradition, the title is considered a lifetime position.
