Simone Biles is experiencing one of the best years of her life. It's not something related to gymnastics, but Simone is having a great time regarding her personal life. Yesterday, the Ohio-born gymnast announced the arrival of the newest member of her family to her followers through her Instagram stories.
She posted a photo of the latest addition of the Biles family with the caption:
"The cutest lil baby".
The champion gymnast was extremely excited as her older brother Ron and sister-in-law Sammi stepped into parenthood. Simone already has the responsibilities of a gymnast, sibling, daughter, and soon-to-be bride. Now, she will have the additional responsibility of being an aunt to her niece.
But as we all know, the great gymnast can excel in everything that is assigned to her. The new bundle of joy will bring more happiness to the Biles family during the Christmas season. The baby was named Ronni Louise Biles.
Simone was already showing immense love even before the baby was born. Biles and her family members came together to celebrate Sammi's baby shower last month. The multiple Olympic gold medalist shared some pictures from the baby shower and expressed her love for her future niece. She wrote with the photo:
"baby girl is already so loved."
Since Ronni joined the family, she is now the 'Baby Biles' in the family. We can be sure that Simone would be a great aunt to Ronni. Maybe we can expect the young Ronni and her aunt to perform some gymnastics routines together some years down the line.
