Simone Biles apologizes for demeaning a former teammate ahead of the Paris Olympics
Simone Biles‘ journey to the Summer Olympic Games in Parismight have seemed straightforward for someone of her ability, but Biles has stared down and overcome numerous challenges in recent years to qualify for her third Olympic Games. Because Biles has been in the public eye for so long, it’s easy to forget that she is only 27 years old — and age, along with experience, has made the superstar gymnast all the wiser.
Biles recently reflected on Aly Raisman, one of her former teammates, and how she treated her in past years — especially when the gymnasts competed to reach the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio. Biles is hoping to add to her medal count and make history in Paris this month — and she now recognizes how difficult it is to maintain such a high level over so many years.
