Simone Biles 'not ready' to explain 'almost dying' comment

Biles thanked friends and family for support after saying she was not ready to explain a health scare that left her resting in bed.

  • On June 6, Olympic gymnast Simone Biles posted an Instagram Stories photo showing hospital bracelets, describing the ordeal as "one of, if not the scariest experience of my life."
  • Biles captioned the image, "I'm not one to normally share things like this... but almost dying wasn't on my bingo card," while NFL player Jonathan Owens was away for practices.
  • The 29-year-old later shared a video of her trip to Belize with Owens on Sunday, June 14, after recovering in bed while he was in Indianapolis for Colts practices.
  • Responding to a fan's inquiry under her Belize video on Sunday, Biles addressed the incident, stating she is "not ready to talk about it just yet."
  • Biles, who has previously discussed prioritizing mental health in her career, continues keeping specific details regarding her recent hospitalization private while moving forward with recovery.
