MyKayla Skinner Pleads for ‘Cyberbullying’ to End Amid Simone Biles Feud
Retired gymnast MyKayla Skinner is calling for a “cyberbullying” cease-fire.
Skinner found herself in hot water recently after she questioned the caliber of gymnasts on the Olympic team. Among those upset with her comments was her former teammate Simone Biles, who took to Instagram Threads to quip, “Not everyone needs a mic.”
Skinner went on to apologize, but Biles shaded her again during the Paris Games when she ironically called out her team’s “lack of talent” and laziness in an Instagram caption—two things Skinner had accused the team of being. Biles later confirmed on X that the photo resulted in Skinner blocking her.
