BREAKING NEWS: Simone Biles Reveals “MyKayla Skinner” former teammate Blocked Her on Instagram Following Savage Clap Back…See more

It seems that Simone Biles’ message to former teammate MyKayla Skinner has been received loud and clear.

On Wednesday, July 31, Biles posted on X (formerly known as Twitter), revealing that Skinner, who was her teammate on Team USA during the 2020 Tokyo Games, had blocked her on Instagram. Biles wrote, “oop I’ve been blocked,” adding several emojis for emphasis.

Around the same time, Jordan Chiles, who is part of the 2024 Olympics U.S. women’s artistic gymnastics team alongside Biles, shared a photo on her Instagram Stories.

The photo depicted someone holding a phone, showing Skinner’s Instagram profile with the message “no posts yet,” indicating that Skinner’s content was no longer visible.

The tension between Biles and Skinner dates back to June, when Skinner made controversial comments in a now-deleted YouTube video.

She criticized the 2024 gymnastics team, saying, “I feel like the talent and the depth just isn’t like what it used to be,” while adding that the gymnasts “don’t have the work ethic.” She did acknowledge Biles positively, saying, “Besides Simone…”

Skinner later claimed her remarks were “misinterpreted.” On July 3, she posted on her Instagram Stories, asserting that her comments were not entirely directed at the current team.
