7-Time Gold Medalist Simone Biles Isn’t Thinking About the 2028 Olympics: ‘Can’t I Live?’

Simone Biles has the perfect comeback for everyone asking about her future in the 2028 Olympics.

On the September 4 episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the 11-time Olympic gold medalist addressed the endless speculation about whether she’ll make a return. When Fallon brought up the topic, Biles playfully responded, “Everybody wants to know this. I’m like, Can’t I just live?”

She also joked that she might be too old for the next Summer Games in Los Angeles. “I’m getting older—27 is a bit much for a gymnast,” she said, to which Fallon countered, “You’re a baby!”

Biles added, “In real life, I’m like fine wine. Outside the gym, I’m young—tequila with no hangovers. But in the gym? I feel old.”

She even suggested a fun twist: “Maybe we could do something like tag? Tag beam, tag vault, tag floor, tag bars. Just tag someone else in!”

While fans are waiting to hear about her potential Olympic comeback, Biles has plenty on her plate. The second part of her Netflix documentary, Simone Biles: Rising—which she promoted with a hilarious Emily in Paris spoof—will be available next month..

The first part, which dropped on July 17, gave a deep dive into her life, mental health journey, and training as she prepared for the 2024 Paris Olympics. Part two will stream on October 25, showing her as she earns her spot on the U.S. Olympic Team and continues to build her legendary career.

Simone Biles is not just dominating in gymnastics—she’s also crushing it in the home-building department with her husband, Jonathan Owens.

Last month, she shared a selfie from her jam-packed day of home design meetings, rocking tan camo pants, a cropped tan tee, and classic white Air Force Ones.

“House meetings all day,” she captioned the post, adding that she was deep into discussions about everything from landscaping to high-tech audio and security systems.

2028 Olympics or not, we’re still rooting for Simone.

U.S. Olympic seven-time gold medal-winning gymnast Simone Biles had reason to be excited during Sunday’s NFL game between the Tennessee Titans and Chicago Bears.

During the third quarter, Biles’ husband, Jonathan Owens, recovered a blocked punt attempt and returned it for a touchdown. The score cut the Titans’ lead to 17-10 and gave life to the Soldier Field crowd that was largely quieted by an early 17-3 lead for Tennessee.

Biles, who just won four gold medals in Paris, reacted to her husband’s play with two posts on X, formerly known as Twitter — one that said “I ALMOST HAD A HEART ATTACK” and another that said simply “my heart.”

It was only the second touchdown in Owens’ career. The 29-year-old safety is playing in his 49th NFL game and his first for the Bears. He played in 17 games for the Green Bay Packers last season and started his career with the Houston Texans in 2019.

Last season, Owens had a 27-yard fumble recovery score against the Detroit Lions.

Biles and Owens met in 2020, when Biles was getting ready to compete in the Olympics in Tokyo. The two got engaged on Valentine’s Day in 2022 and married in April 2023.
