McKayla Maroney responds to Simone Biles’ brutal jibe at MyKayla Skinner following Team USA’s gold medal win at the Paris 2024 Olympics
USA Gymnastics royalty is picking sides in the Simone Biles- MyKayla Skinner feud.
Biles, along with Suni Lee, Jordan Chiles, and Jade Carey, dominated the field at the artistic gymnastic team finals at the Paris Olympics on Tuesday, winning by nearly five-and-a-half points over Italy.
On her Instagram afterwards, Biles posted a picture of the team with a brutal caption – ‘lack of talent, lazy, olympic champions’ – which came as a response to a comment Skinner posted online prior to the Paris Games.
In a now-deleted YouTube video, Skinner blasted the team of Biles, Chiles, Lee, Carey, and Hezly Rivera for not having the right ‘work ethic.’
Now former Team USA star and 2012 gold medalist McKayla Maroney has weighed in, and she’s firmly in Biles’ camp.
‘It doesn’t get more iconic than this,’ Maroney wrote on Instagram in response to Biles’ post. ‘She f’d around n found out fr.’
and we are out here really having fun and enjoying what we are doing.
‘So I think it is just different and it is not to say that I wasn’t shocked that we won because it was still super surprising, my first gold medal ever. It was so exciting. But I think the pressure was so on for us to win gold so we did just did what we were supposed to do.
‘Even going into tonight, we just did what we had to do, but it just felt a little bit different. It was super exciting, we had fun out there and we just did our gymnastics.
Simone added: ‘We’re super excited. We’re honored to represent the US every time we get on a world stage but accomplishing that gold and that goal was just an amazing feeling.
‘I think we all had something to prove from Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and tonight we did just that.
‘It means the world. This was our goal going in, even though we didn’t share it with everybody because it’s just a personal thing that we were working on. But I think for everybody it’s what we came here to do. And we’re super excited to walk away with that gold medal.’
