Even undoubtedly, the biggest gymnast to ever exist, wasn’t safe against Larry Nassar.
Simone Biles was one of the former coach’s many victims of sexual abuse; He will spend the rest of his life behind cars after abusing over 100 gymnasts, many of whom were Olympic hopeful, so much less gold medal winners.
Biles revealed in 2018 that she was abused by Nassar, and in a hearing in 2021 she said the FBI “turned a blind eye” to the allegations.

Jordan Chiles, one of Biles’ teammates, was never abused by Nassar, and while the two have created history together, Chiles said the two have “never” talked about his abuse of Biles.
“When it all happened, believe me, I was ruined. I still have never talked to her today,” Chiles told People Magazine. “I don’t think I will ever talk to her about it, because it was her life and you never know how hard it is on anyone.

“I think having my presence was the best I could give her, rather than sitting somewhere and having a whole conversation because it’s very devastating. If we ever have the conversation, I would literally cry.”
“She’s a very, very strong woman,” Chiles added. “We both had the same goals. We both had things that we wanted to achieve and look at her now, she is a three-time Olympic, she has a man, she is a dog mother. She has done great things and she gets going on her life without really having to focus on what her past was.”

Nassar, who was the main doctor of the American woman’s national gymnastics team from 1996 to 2014, was jailed in 2018, and at least 500 people have accused Nassar of assaults dating back to his time in Michigan State.
