While you saw Steph Curry, LeBron James, Kelsey Plum, Coco Gauff, and a number of Team USA’s other superstars at the Opening Ceremony of the Paris Olympics, one missing megastar was Simone Biles.
Simone Biles’ mother announced Friday that Simone would be skipping the Opening Ceremony’s floating Parade of Nations to rest up for her competitions, but did stress the gymnast is feeling good.
“The first competition is Sunday, which is woman’s qualifier, and of course she needs to rest up before that competition,” Simone’s mother, Nellie Biles, told NBC News’ Hoda Kotb during the live ceremony broadcast.
“She is feeling really good. Spoke to her this morning and she’s doing great.”
Nellie Biles said Simone is happy her family and support group of 17 strong will be there to cheer her on in Paris.
