Simone Biles Faces Coaching Transition and Criticism

Simone Biles, who recently added more Olympic medals to her collection at the 2024 Paris Olympics, emphasized the importance of support from her husband, Jonathan Owens, and her teammates in managing her nerves and mental health during competitions. Despite her success, Biles still faces moments of doubt but finds solace in her close relationships, including her husband, who has also shown significant support by attending her events despite his own NFL commitments. Owens, who has transitioned to the Chicago Bears, has been criticized for wearing Biles' gold medal in a public post, though his support remains unwavering. Meanwhile, Biles' longtime coach Cecile Canqueteau-Landi is moving to a new role at the University of Georgia, marking an emotional transition for Biles and her family. Biles will also be leading the Gold Over America tour, which prevents her from attending one of Owens' important games, though she plans to support him remotely.
