Simone Biles has recently opened up about having undergone three cosmetic procedures, sparking curiosity among her fans who couldn’t easily detect them without her revelation.
Renowned as a legendary gymnast, Biles, at 28, is an 11-time Olympic medalist and holds the title of the most decorated artistic gymnast in World Championship history, regardless of gender, with a staggering 30 medals.
Apart from her thriving athletic career, Biles has a significant presence on social media with 17.6 million followers. She is married to Jonathan Owens of the Chicago Bears and serves as an ambassador for Friends of the Children, an organization that provides long-term professional mentors for children in foster care.
In a recent TikTok video titled ‘Get Unready With Me,’ Biles shared more about herself beyond her athletic persona.
On October 29, she candidly revealed to her followers that she has undergone a total of three plastic surgery procedures.
“Two of them you would never be able to tell,” she stated in the video.
This prompted a flurry of comments from fans guessing the procedures, with some suggesting a breast augmentation, while others were left guessing.
Following the post, Biles disclosed that she had a lower blepharoplasty and an earlobe repair, and she hinted at having undergone a breast augmentation.
A lower blepharoplasty involves a surgeon making an incision below the lower eyelash line to remove excess skin in the lower eyelid, a procedure Biles opted for due to what she described as the ‘worst eye bags.’
In the same video, Biles recounted an incident from her youth that necessitated earlobe surgery after an earring mishap.
Speculation about Biles having a breast augmentation began circulating last month after she shared a video of herself on a trampoline with the text overlay stating: “First flip – in a year – at the new house – with new [cherries emoji].”
Biles has often spoken out against rigid beauty standards, highlighting her preference for going makeup-free and not styling her hair while training.
“Outside of the gym, I love to dress up, do my hair and my make-up – but make-up is more of a show-up-and-show-out, whenever I need to, thing. That’s usually not the focus until competition time and for events,” she mentioned in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar.
She also shared that her relationship with beauty has evolved over time.
“Now, I would still say my personal preference is always having a clean face and just being confident in who I am,” she explained last September.
“I’ll have semi-permanent lashes the majority of the time, even if I don’t have make-up on, but I think that it’s really special to fall in love with what your natural face looks like.”
