Simone Biles once talked about her health condition immediately after the Paris Olympics, where she had registered a strong comeback. The 28-year-old Olympic champion gymnast opened up about her 10 day long illness in a conversation with Marca portal as she said,

"At the end of the competition, I went back to the village, I took the elevator and my body literally collapsed. I got sick for 10 days. 2028 seems so far away, and my body ages. Because I've already accomplished so much, I would really need to be thrilled by it. So, to be honest, I don't know. We'll see. I will be there, whether on the apparatus or in the stands, I still haven't decided."

Simone Biles participated in the 2024 Paris Olympics. The then 27-year-old gymnast became the most decorated American gymnast of all time with four medals at the quadrennial event held in Paris. With this, Biles joined the ranks of Czech gymnast Vera Caslavska to become the joint second most decorated gymnast of all time with a total of 11 medals. Simone Biles is still seven Olympic medals behind Soviet gymnast Larisa Latynina, who won 18 Olympic medals overall in her long career from 1956 to 1964.
