Simone Biles' childhood home in Spring, Texas, highlights her family's early financial struggles. Raised by her maternal grandparents, Ron and Nellie, Biles found stability and support, which helped her excel in gymnastics from a young age. After a break for mental health, Biles made a strong comeback at the recent Paris Olympics, winning four medals. This achievement brings her total to 11 Olympic medals, tying her for third all-time among gymnasts. At 27, Biles is focusing on her life beyond gymnastics. While her future in competition remains uncertain, she is taking on a mentoring role and supporting her fiancé, NFL player Jonathan Owens, at his games.
