On May 31, Ronni’s mother, Sammi Biles, shared a snippet through her X handle. It displayed Ronni taking her fun mode of watching Simone Biles’ pictures in the leotard. Showing the pictures to her daughter, Sammi asked her, “Who’s that baby? Is that TT?”  The adorable kid replied with a wide smile and expressed her merriment with a small jump. Meanwhile, in the caption, Sammi Biles wrote, “how we all feel getting to watch TT @Simone_Biles  live this week/end – we know little miss is pumped too” The caption came with a love emoji filled with the purple color. Coincidentally, in Dickies Arena today, purple-colored leotards remained the most common. However, Simone Biles gave a new leotard goal to Baby Biles, as the former appeared in her black leotard today.

As per the latest update, Ronni’s loving aunt has earned the all-around title at the Xfinity US Gymnastics Championships with a score of 60.450, one of the highest ones achieved in the contest. Her vault score remained unchallenged once again. In the past, Ronni aka Baby Biles emulated the movements. Furthermore, she received a special leotard set from GK Elite to keep a match with her aunt Simone. But would today’s high score motivate Baby Biles to emulate Simone Biles’ moves?

Later, the visual was shared on social media, captioning “Watching TT and wanting to be like her.” Ronni’s presence in WCC sessions has already earned her quotes like Tiny gymnast with big dreams.” So is there another Biles on her way to take up the gymnastic world?
