Simone Biles’ niece cheered on her aunt in matching leotard during Paris Olympics
Simone Biles‘ biggest fan may not be her NFL husband after all as the star gymnast’s baby niece has been rocking matching leotards to cheer on her aunt in Paris.
Throughout the duration of the 2024 Olympics, two-year-old Ronni Biles has been spotted wearing similar leotards to Biles’ on social media, including one worn by the 27-year-old during qualification.
The toddler also sported a red, white and blue leotard, which Biles wore during the women’s team final in gymnastics on July 30.
The US won gold in that event while Biles also emerged first in both of the women’s artistic individual all-around and vault competitions to take her gold medal tally in Paris to three.
But, ahead of Biles’ second-place performance in the women’s floor final on Monday, Ronni ‘threw up all over her matching TT leotard,’ as disclosed by the little girl’s mom – Sammi – on Instagram.

‘got car sick + threw up all over he new @gkelite leo,’ Sammi added on her Story. ‘But she’s hanging in there like I champ her wi/her ”TT gymnast” @simonebiles @barbie.’
Sammi later congratulated Biles on her achievements, sharing on Instagram: ‘our sweet baby girl is obsessed w/ her TT’s gymnastics. Such an amazing Olympics for @simonebiles.
‘we adore you and are proud of you beyond words! setting the stage for athletes all over the world as an athlete but most importantly for being a human too.’
On Monday, Ronni felt unwell while wearing a leotard before Biles’ floor final performance
Earlier on Monday, Biles’ husband – Jonathan Owens – claimed that fans ‘wouldn’t understand’ the gymnast’s endurance after she slipped off the beam during the women’s floor final, injuring herself in the process.
Biles refused to feel sorry for herself despite a disappointing end to her Olympic jersey.
‘I’ve accomplished way more than my wildest dreams, not just at this Olympics, but in the sport,’ Biles said. ‘So I can’t be mad at my performances. A couple years ago, I didn’t think I’d be back here at an Olympic Games.’
‘So competing and then walking away with four medals, I’m not mad about it. I’m pretty proud of myself, and it’s always so exciting to compete,’ she added.
