However, in 2014, Simone shared the name of another crush, but this time, related to her profession. She revealed it herself by tweeting and tagging him.
Who was Simone Biles’ secret crush in 2014?
Her secret crush is non-other than a professional gymnast, Chris Brooks. He is a four-time gold medalist in the Pacific Rim Championships of 2012. Chris also trained alongside the Olympic’s Jonathan Horton during his college days. He had enough achievements to make another gymnast like Simone make his fan.
Simone’s tweet reads, “Ok, well apparently its no surprise that I have the biggest crush on @cbrooks_wpr! and if not.. whoops, I just told ya.”

As she confessed, her fans reminded her of Alec Yoder, her internet fan back then. The fans’ comments humorously pointed ‘it’s not cheating if Alec is sleeping now.’ Seeing these comments, even Biles couldn’t hold her laugh. Although, interestingly, Yoder also came from a gymnast background, he was on the team of Indianapolis gymnasts.
Now Brooks works as an assistant coach for the Arkansas Razorbacks NCAA gymnastics team. Simone and Brook’s both had different styles and methods of gymnastics. Similarly, they opted for different life paths; for example, Chris is a coach. Meanwhile, Simone is taking a mental health break.
Simone’s ‘forever’ crush Zac Efron
The story of her having a crush on Zac made him aware of this. In 2016, Efron gave a breathtaking surprise to Simone appearing after the competition interview. Biles couldn’t hold her tears seeing Zac in front of her. In addition, the ‘Baywatch’ movie actor also enjoyed her performance from a distance. The entire team of Final Five witnessed and adored him.
In 2013, Simone revealed her long-time crush on Zac by holding his cardboard cutout. In the pictures, she was spotted kissing the cardboard.
Probably, every person Simone had a crush on can be considered lucky because of her legendary GOAT status. But, apart from all the crush-love fog, Biles is all set to marry her fiance, Jonathan Owens, soon.
