Gabby Responds to Constant Bullying

Entertainment tonight Gabby’s latest statement comes after a TikTok user claimed she was no longer relevant because of Simone Biles, reports The New York Times.

According to the source, the clip shows the TikTok user asking followers when was the last time they thought about Gabby Douglas.

Gabby responded to the comment and shared her thoughts on the constant cyberbullying she has endured.

“It’s okay! Being bullied all the time makes me so tired and exhausted. I just want to live my life and be in peace. Thanks for the love! It’s definitely needed in this world x,” Gabby wrote.

Despite the TikTok user’s claims, Douglas is still a three-time gold medalist, having competed in the 2012 and 2016 Olympic Games.

According to Entertainment Tonight, the gymnast made history by becoming the first black woman to win a gold medal in the all-around at the 2012 London Olympics.

Simone Biles Cancels 2024 Paris Olympics

The TikToker’s comments come as Simone Biles is dominating the 2024 Paris Olympics.

As The Shade Room previously reported, Biles recently won her sixth world all-around title at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Following Simone’s floor performance on August 1, she won another gold medal, further enhancing her record-breaking status. Biles now holds a staggering 23 gold medals in total, surpassing legends like Serena Williams And Michael Phelps.

Details on Gabby’s withdrawal from the US Championships

Gabby Douglas withdrew from the U.S. gymnastics championships in May due to an ankle injury.

Gabby’s unfortunate injury has dented her chances of making the 2024 Paris Olympic team. The three-time Olympic gold medalist returned to competition earlier this year after nearly eight years out of action.

The gymnast officially announced her return in February and continued competing in April at the American Classic in Katy, Texas, where she qualified for the U.S. Championships.

Despite the unfortunate circumstances, Gabby said ESPN She is proud of her achievements over the past 18 months.

“I love the sport and I love pushing my limits, I hope I can inspire both my peers and the next generation of gymnasts that age is just a number, and you can achieve anything if you put your mind to it,” Douglas explained.
