Simone Biles Weighs Return for 2028 Los Angeles Olympics

Her undecided stance could reshape U.S. team dynamics by forcing a choice between competing at a home Games or starting a family.

Overview

  • Simone Biles told The Associated Press she is undecided but leaning toward a comeback for the 2028 Los Angeles Games, a position she described as “kind of in the works” on Tuesday.
  • Family planning and questions about reproductive health are central to her deliberation and could affect the timing or feasibility of another full Olympic campaign.
  • Recent gym work, including landing a double layout for the first time since Paris, and effective steroid-free treatments for seborrheic dermatitis and eczema have kept a return physically possible.
  • Several current U.S. gymnasts such as Suni Lee, Jordan Chiles and Jade Carey are already aiming for LA, so Biles’s decision would directly change the competition for roster spots and team strategy.
  • Beyond medals, Biles is weighing legacy and personal priorities while continuing public advocacy on mental health and health issues, and the next signs to watch are a formal training plan or an official commitment.
