As she visited the wildlife resorts in South Africa, Biles also managed to spot a goat in an animal farm. Biles made a cheeky comparison with her nickname ‘The GOAT’ as she posted on her Instagram story:

“Hey Twin.”

That wasn’t all. Biles also clicked photos with other animals, including pigs. She later posted a collage on her Instagram story, along with the caption:

“Not sure the farm life is for me.”

After a hectic but successful season in 2024, Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens are on a long vacation trip in order to celebrate their honeymoon they missed in 2023. Previously, the couple had made a long visit to Switzerland.

Simone Biles is one of the most decorated female gymnasts of all time, only behind the Soviet legend Larisa Latynina. The 27-year-old gymnast recently opened up about her motivation behind pursuing gymnastics.

In a conversation with Fox 26 Houston’s Will Kunkel, Biles said:

“My ‘Why’ was to just really have fun and brace it and see how far I could go and hopefully one day get a college scholarship. And that evolved over the years as I started progressing through the sports pretty quickly. Like, ‘oh maybe one day, I can go the Olympics’ and then I was training with some girls I had gone to World and been to an Olympic team. So, that’s kind of why it changed but other than that, it was to embrace who I am, to be strong, to be beautiful and bold.”

Simone Biles has been extremely vocal about the issue of athletes’ mental health, especially after going through a similar situation at the Tokyo Olympics. She was also awarded the ‘Sportsperson of the Year Award’ in late 2024 by the Sports Illustrated Magazine.
