Simone Biles blazed the gymnastics floor at the World Championships 2023. Back in Antwerp, after a decade since her debut, she made the ultimate comeback to the global stage after the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. Her comeback had a clear motive, but the familiar anxieties that had led her to withdraw in 2021 resurfaced, casting a shadow of doubt. Biles took to TikTok and shared a candid video captioned “A Whole Bunch of Word Vomit bc Nerves.” In the video, she took her fans behind the scenes as she prepared for the championships. She opened up about her major anxiety, saying, “I was so nervous last night and so anxious, and I don’t know why.”

As Biles returned to America after a stellar performance in Antwerp, Jonathan welcomed her in the most heart-warming way.
