NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Olympic champion Simone Biles is once again at the center of online chatter, but this time, it’s not for her gymnastic feats.

The 28-year-old gold medalist sparked widespread speculation this week after sharing a series of sun-soaked bikini photos from a beachside getaway in Belize, prompting fans to wonder if she recently underwent a secret breast augmentation.

The posts, which show Biles lounging in a string bikini beside her husband, NFL player Jonathan Owens, reveal a noticeably fuller bust, setting off viral rumors and commentary across social media.

While Biles has remained silent on the subject, the internet certainly hasn’t.

Simone Biles' tropical vacation photos spark breast augmentation rumors

Speculation began almost immediately after Biles uploaded photos of her tropical escape.

The most attention-grabbing images showed her in a black bikini with visibly enhanced curves, a stark contrast from past appearances.

Among those weighing in was Dana Omari of the popular plastic surgery commentary page @IGFamousByDana, who reshared one of the images on her story and captioned it, “Simone Biles with the breast aug!! She looks incredible.”

One X (formerly known as Twitter) user commented, "Not to be crass but genuine question, am I crazy bc it looks like Simone Biles got breast augmentation? so, doesn't that mean by default that she has retired.? no? i'm crazy? okay."



 

While another reader queried, "Why??? Why on earth would anyone get pieces of silicone on their chest? Looks bad, feels bad and unhealthy." Another reader joked about the difference in the athlete's appearance, saying, "Lol those are a bit different. She had pecs before."

Among the concerns over the rumored change in appearance was this comment: "Yep, she finally did it. Wondering if it will affect her performance now during a competition, but maybe she has retired?"

Biles also uploaded a mirror selfie, offering a closer look at her cleavage, further fueling the conversation. However, she has not responded to any of the rumors or offered clarification.

Simone Biles reflects on past cosmetic tweaks and body image journey amid viral vacation snaps

This isn’t the first time Simone Biles has opened up about dabbling in cosmetic procedures. In a 2024 TikTok video, she admitted to getting baby Botox in her T-zone to mark her 27 birthday but shared that she didn’t enjoy the experience.

“I haven’t got it again because I would be standing there in practice and my eyebrow would randomly go like this,” she said, pulling her brow upward to mimic the effect. “So not doing that again.”

In a past interview with Vogue, Biles also spoke about her body image struggles and how she’s grown to embrace her appearance despite criticism. “They focused on my hair. They focused on how big my legs were,” she said. “But God made me this way, if I didn’t have these legs or these calves, I wouldn’t be able to tumble as high as I can.”

She echoed similar sentiments last year: “My relationship with beauty has changed a lot over time,” and described how her sense of confidence has evolved independently of societal expectations.
