The online beef between Simone Biles and her former teammate MyKayla Skinner seems to be intensifying following Biles triumph at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Biles, now the most decorated U.S. gymnast in Olympic history, revealed Wednesday that Skinner appeared to have blocked her on Instagram.

oop Ive been blocked, she wrote on X , formerly Twitter.

Though Biles didnt mention Skinner by name, her teammate Jordan Chiles posted a screenshot of Skinners Instagram profile which reads No posts yet to her own Instagram Stories.

When she blocks Simone, Chiles wrote in the caption.

The drama between Biles and Skinner, who nabbed a silver medal at the 2020 Tokyo Games, erupted last month after Skinner offered a less-than-complimentary take on the current U.S. womens gymnastics team.

Besides Simone, I feel like the talent and the depth just isnt what it used to be, she said in a since-deleted YouTube video, portions of which can be found here . Obviously, a lot of girls dont work as hard ... The girls just dont have the work ethic.

Days later, Biles offered what seemed to be a reaction to Skinners comments.

not everyone needs a mic and a platform, she wrote on Threads .
