As the 2024 year concluded, Jordan Chiles reflected on her journey, taking pride in overcoming challenges and achieveing major goals. Her significant highlight of the year included securing a gold medal at the Paris Games.
Chiles made her second appearance at the Games and clinched a gold medal in the team event alongside Simone Biles, Suni Lee, Jade Carey, and Hezly Rivera. At the same Games, she was stripped of her bronze medal in the floor exercise due to a controversy.
Following her appearance at the Games, she made an appearance at the VMA Awards, where Flavor Flav surprised her with a bronze clock. From meeting icons like Megan Thee Stallion to gracing the SI Swimsuit photoshoot, Chiles had a year full of milestones.
Sharing a few pictures from 2024, including the U.S. Classic, Olympic Trials, attending the U.S. Open, and walking the runway, she wrote:
"Thank you 2024. It’s been a crazy year but couldn’t be more proud of myself being able to push past every barrier that has came my way. From letting go of friendships to gaining even bigger ones, to wanting to become an Olympian to being a 2X Olympian, from watching the VMAs at home to presenting, being in magazines that I’ve always dreamed of, and for meeting the most amazing people in my life, and many more!!"
Chiles added:
"To everyone that has supported me and continue to support me, I love you guys so much! Can’t wait to see what 2025 has in story for Miss That Girl!!"
