Simone Biles Demands ‘Justice’ for Jordan Chiles Continues to Deal with Fallout from Court Decision to Strip Her of Olympic Bronze Medal and Give It to Her Romanian Opponent
Simone Biles is continuing to support Team USA teammate Jordan Chiles amid ongoing controversy over her bronze medal in floor exercise at the Paris Olympics.
“We were FaceTiming, texting, just being girls,” Biles told People magazine while promoting her partnership with the hair care brand. “I was talking to him one day and I said, ‘You know, Jordan, you have to feel all these emotions. Don’t let these emotions get the better of you.'” This is the healthiest way to let it all out. ”
It was a tough August for Chile, who won the bronze medal on floor exercise in Paris on August 5, after a call from U.S. coach Cecil Lundy questioned the difficulty of her gymnast. As a result of the call, Chile increased its score by 0.1 points to 13.766, just ahead of Romanian gymnast Ana Barbosa’s 13.700. That night, Chile celebrated the podium, but since then the medal has been redistributed to Balbos after the Randy Arbitration Court’s decision.
Best, who earned money on the ground on August 5, claims that Chile is not too broken. She’s “still that girl,” Biles told People magazine, adding that her performance speaks for itself.

“We saw what you did,” Biles says of Chiles. “And it’s unfortunate because nothing like this has ever happened before and it’s really unfortunate, but we would love for all three girls to get medals, but unfortunately that’s not the case in artistic gymnastics. “We think they followed the right procedures to make that decision?” Biles continued. \’no. This is why we want this justice for Jordan and why we support and continue to grow. \ ‘
Currently, Chile is not planned to return your medal, USA TODAY, but a 23 -year -old soccer player is clearly from the test, but he is a 23 -year -old man.
Chirin temporarily swears a social network, but she acknowledges that she shares some interesting messages with her. “I know she’s not on social media, but some of the funny things I’ve seen, I was like, ‘Okay, Jordan, can I send you something that I think you’re really going to love right now? ’” Biles told People magazine.
“So I was sending her little things, and one of them was like four or five girls guarding a medal, and I thought that was the cutest thing.” Then I sent her Flavor Fluff’s bronze medal (the one he made for her) and then I sent her LeBron’s tweet.
“So support her and know that she still has your full support.”

Chiles returned to social media on Friday, posting a screenshot of X’s post on her Instagram story that read, “She’s 10 and still recovering from not deserved it.”
She previously called the decision to strip her of her medal “unfair,” while the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee also told USA Today that there had been “significant procedural errors” by the CAS. According to CAS, the Americans’ appeal was filed in one minute and four seconds, exceeding the one-minute time limit.
However, USA Gymnastics said it had evidence to support its claim that the appeal was filed within the 47-second time limit. Former Olympian Arie Riseman also said the CAS decision was “confusing” and that the appeal would not have been accepted if the ruling had been delayed.
“There are designated and trained officials. It’s their job to save time, “she said every week. If you do not have this window, you will not be able to accept the request. They accepted the survey. In other words, the person who formed it was less than a minute. \ ‘
Biles and Peppers is ready to participate in Gold on America Tour, which will start next month.
