Simone Biles Slammed As ‘Privileged’ Over Bikini Snap In British Virgin Islands

Simone Biles is embracing some much-deserved downtime, but her latest Instagram post is drawing both praise and criticism from fans.

The Olympic gymnast shared a stunning photo from Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands, where she was spotted enjoying a day out on the water.

Rocking a black bikini top, polka dot bottoms, and a wide-brimmed Miu Miu hat, Simone Biles captioned the photo with a cheeky line: “god forbid a girl uses her passport.”

The post, which racked up over 113,000 likes in less than a day, quickly sparked conversation in the comments section. Many fans flooded her with love and admiration.

“Simone is exactly who she thinks she is and I will unequivocally support this woman forever. Love love love,” one supporter gushed.

Another added, “Love seeing you live your best life!!”

But not everyone was impressed. Some users criticized the gymnast, with one writing, “Looks privileged to me.”

Another commented, “Lost respect, when she thought boys can compete in girls’ competitions.”

Despite the criticism, Biles appeared unbothered as she enjoyed her tropical getaway, proving once again that she’s not just the GOAT on the mat, but also when it comes to living life on her own terms.

The Olympic champion stunned fans after sharing a poolside snap in a fierce leopard-print bikini, complete with sleek sunglasses and a glass of champagne at her side.

The gymnast captioned the February 20 Instagram post with a playful “copycat,” showing off her toned physique while lounging on a wooden deck by the water.

It didn’t take long for fans and brands alike to flood the comments with admiration. “Obsessed with everything about this,” beauty giant Sephora gushed. Swimwear brand Mikoh added, “We love you!!!!,” while one fan declared, “Just slayed this look.”

The post quickly racked up over 330,000 likes, with Biles’ followers praising her confidence and style just as much as her record-breaking athletic achievements.

Biles is living her best life abroad, and fans can’t get enough of her globe-trotting glow.

The Olympic champion took to Instagram on February 25 to share a breathtaking shot of herself standing by a pool with a glass of wine in hand, wearing a vibrant orange bikini and a white cover-up. Behind her, lush mountains and blue skies set the scene for a picture-perfect escape in South Africa. She playfully captioned the post, “what day is it?” giving followers a glimpse into her carefree vacation mood.

Fans and friends quickly flooded the comments, with South African locals welcoming her warmly. “Enjoy my country queen,” one user wrote.

Another added, “I feel like I’m traveling with you, this trip is being amazing, you deserve the best.” Others simply gushed over her beauty, with comments like “Cute,” and “Fire!” dominating the thread.
