Simone Biles recently made headlines – not for her gymnastics achievements, but for how she handled rumors regarding plastic surgery. After sharing photos from her vacation in Belize with her husband Jonathan Owens, fans began speculating about changes in her appearance.
Rather than let the noise grow, Biles acted decisively by disabling comments on the post, making it clear she was not interested in entertaining speculation.
Simone Biles downs colorful shots in broad daylight catching Jonathan Owens slipping
The rumors began when Biles posted a photo of herself in a lime-green swimsuit. A social media influencer reposted the image with a caption suggesting she had undergone breast augmentation, which quickly fueled online discussion.
In response, Biles turned off the comment section – sending a message that she would not tolerate invasive commentary or let the conversation spiral without her control.
Biles takes charge of the debate
Biles’s decision reflects a broader pattern in how she manages public attention. She has always prioritized mental health, especially since her withdrawal from events at the Tokyo Olympics due to “the twisties,” a dangerous condition that disrupts spatial awareness in gymnastics.
Since then, she has been vocal about protecting her mental space and setting healthy boundaries-including taking social media breaks when needed.
Her recent move to limit comments is a continuation of that mindset. It shows she’s willing to set digital boundaries just as she does in real life. Instead of engaging with speculation or attempting to clarify unconfirmed assumptions, she simply removed the platform for commentary altogether.
A candid cosmetic confession
Although she has not addressed the specific rumors around plastic surgery, Biles has spoken openly about one cosmetic treatment in the past. Earlier this year, she posted a lighthearted TikTok video discussing her experience with Botox, which she had tried as a birthday gift to herself.
“I got baby Botox in my T-zone for my 27th birthday… it did not like it,” she said. Biles described how her eyebrow would “randomly go up for 20 seconds,” ultimately concluding, “not doing that again.”
This moment of candor offered insight into her approach – willing to be open, but only on her own terms. By admitting to a small experiment gone wrong, she humanized herself and dispelled the myth that public figures are immune to everyday missteps. It also emphasized that transparency doesn’t always require full disclosure, especially when boundaries are clearly defined.
The pressure on female athletes – particularly those with global fame – is unrelenting. Whether it’s achievements on the mat or perceived changes in appearance, every detail is scrutinized. Biles’s approach to recent chatter is a reminder that not every rumor deserves a response. Sometimes, silence and action speak louder.
Despite the distractions, Biles remains focused on her career and well-being. With continued preparation for the Olympics and a strong sense of self, she’s reinforcing a legacy rooted not just in medals but in personal strength and autonomy.
