On the competitive side, apart from her collegiate career, where she is considered one of the greatest gymnasts with six NCAA Championships medals, Carey is also a two-time Olympic gold medalist, having won gold in the floor exercise in Tokyo and as a crucial member of the women's all-around team in Paris. The 25-year-old also earned a bronze medal in the floor exercise event at the Paris Olympics.

Jade Carey explained her decision to sit out of the elite gymnastics circuit for the 2025 season.

In an interview with Olympics.com in May 2025, Carey opened up about her choice, stating:

“I think after having the college season and just having so much fun and only focusing on that, I didn’t wanna do this summer because I wanted to end on just being able to focus on college gymnastics and take a break.”

She added:

“This summer, I definitely wanna go on vacation since that’s been a really long time coming for me, just be able to go away, relax, unplug, and just truly take my mind away from gymnastics.”

Carey also noted that if she eventually decides to aim for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics on home soil, then stepping back in 2025 would be a strategic move, giving her body and mind the recovery to refocus on long-term goals.
