Simone Biles posts a photo of a rarely seen loved one to mark a special occasion.
Simone Biles has indeed had a whirlwind of activity since the Paris Olympics, from celebrating personal milestones to managing her busy life. Despite her packed schedule, she made sure to take a moment to honor her father’s special day. Her Instagram story tribute to Ronald Biles, who recently turned 75, showcased her deep affection and appreciation for him.
Simone’s close bond with her father and mother, Nellie, is well-known. They’ve been her steadfast supporters throughout her gymnastics career, never missing a competition. This support has been integral to Simone’s success, as she often seeks out their presence and connection before performing.
Ronald and Nellie Biles adopted Simone and her sister Adria after the girls spent years in the foster care system. Despite Ronald being Simone’s biological grandfather, he and Nellie have been the only parents she’s known, and she refers to them as such. Simone has expressed profound gratitude for this life-changing adoption, which she believes gave her a fresh start and set her on the path to becoming the world-renowned gymnast she is today.
