MyKayla Skinner is now so much more than a gymnast. The 26-year-old retired from her sport at the start of August 2021. A former artistic gymnast, Skinner secured the silver medal in the women’s vault at the Tokyo Olympics. She is now enjoying her retirement. Along the way, she has embraced the joys of motherhood. At present, MyKayla Skinner’s cup runneth over.

She and her husband of four years, Jonas Harmer, recently welcomed their first child into the world. Little Charlotte Jane Harmer was born on 21 September of this year. She has kept her parents on their toes ever since. The internet thoroughly enjoyed the sight of the little one and her father enjoying a little father-daughter bonding time.

MyKayla Skinner shows her husband and daughter bonding over the NBA

MyKayla Skinner recently shared a story on Instagram showing the father-daughter duo. To that, she added the caption, “Just some daddy daughter time @jonas.harmer @charlottejaneharmer.” The story began with a view of the television in their living room showing the end of the first half of an NBA game. The Golden State Warriors were leading the Oklahoma City Thunder 69-67 then at the Paycom Center. One could identify Klay Thompson of the Warriors, with his name and number also visible.

The camera then panned to the other end of the couch, where Jonas Harmer sat with his daughter on his lap. He gently rocked her back-and-forth while also keeping an eye on the proceedings of the game. Harmer then turned to his wife and sent a smile her way once cognizant he was being recorded. It was yet another instance where the little one delighted her growing fan following. But, the route to the laughs took the parents, particularly MyKayla Skinner, through a lot of agony.
