Simone Biles remains undecided about the 2028 Olympics, but the lure of competing in LA is very real
Biles says she is weighing a comeback for Los Angeles 2028, with family plans and reproductive health among the factors, while 36 million Americans have inflammatory skin conditions.
- On Tuesday, 29-year-old gymnastics icon Simone Biles remains undecided about competing at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, telling The Associated Press, "I don't know what the decision I should make, but I don't necessarily have to make it just yet."
- Balancing her personal life, Biles cited her marriage to Indianapolis Colts safety Jonathan Owens and reproductive health as significant factors weighing on her decision. Starting a family and the physical toll of training complicate a potential return.
- Emphasizing her peace with retirement, Biles said, "I feel really, really comfortable with what I've done in the sport." Teammate Joscelyn Roberson reinforced this, reminding her, "Remember, you don't have to come back."
- While Biles contemplates retirement, Olympic teammates Suni Lee, Jordan Chiles, and Jade Carey are already pointing toward Los Angeles. Biles joked these competitors would be "just fine" if her sabbatical turned official.
- Outside the gym, Biles continues her advocacy, partnering with the "Skin to Believe In" campaign to support roughly 36 million Americans living with inflammatory skin conditions. Her broader impact extends well beyond gymnastics.
