Exclusive: Biles flaunts her Birkins, Range Rover and Texas mansion – but the $25Million Olympic gymnast has given no hand outs to her penniless birth mom who works as a cashier to make ends meet…see more
With seven Olympic gold medals, over two dozen world championships, and multiple endorsement deals under her belt, Simone Biles is now one of the most decorated – and highly paid – female athletes in the world.
The mom and daughter remain estranged and have little to no contact. Simone has consistently refused to reconcile with the woman who abandoned in childhood her decades ago.
Nor, it seems has the Olympic star offered any financial assistance.
‘Of course I would accept her help,’ Shanon told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview. ‘She hasn’t [offered] it so far. I’m here. I’m okay.’
Simone was shuffled through foster homes before her grandfather Ron Biles and his second wife Nellie adopted her as a six-year-old.
Now, an accomplished Olympic athlete, she hasn’t been shy about showing off what her prodigious talent has brought her, sharing videos and snaps treating herself to a luxury shopping spree to celebrate her successful performance at the Games this past month.
She was even forced to respond to comments from online trolls criticizing her for flaunting her wealth this week after she was seen with an Hermès handbag.
Simone clarified that the purse had actually been a gift in a cheeky Threads post on Wednesday saying: ‘My parents bought me my Hermès bag. Don’t be mad at me, be mad at your parents.’

The 52-year-old, who was forced to give up her children due to her long-running battle with drugs and alcohol, is now sober but has struggled financially, living in the same corner red-brick row house in the crime-ridden neighborhood of Franklinton.
Shanon initially lost her four children – Simone is the third – to foster care and then to adoption when Ron and Nellie took Simone and her sister Adria to live with them in Texas.
Her two eldest children Tevin, now 29 and Ashley, now 34, were taken in by Ron’s sister.
Since then, she has racked up a string of debts as well as offenses that have seen her in and out of the courts for three decades.
According to a Chapter Seven bankruptcy petition filed in October 2018, Shanon said she didn’t have a dollar to her name and just $34 on a prepaid card.
Among her assets were two unusable cars – a totaled Toyota Scion XB 2008 and a non-roadworthy GMC Sierra 2003 – worth a combined $2,125.
She also claimed homeware, electronics, clothes, shoes and jewelry worth $9,650 and even listed her dog, cat, and guinea pig.
Shanon claimed that her home was worth just $9,684.
She owed $14,234 to 21 companies, including medical and financial services, shopping websites, and a $3,834 student loan.
Shanon also reported that she earned $1,688-a-month, with expenses totaling $1,685.
The debt was eventually cleared in February the following year after striking an agreement to repay her main creditor, finance firm Integrity Funding Ohio LLC, in installments.
But the money problems have continued, with Shanon being sued by debt collecting agency LVNV Funding LLC in 2021 with a judgement against her to pay off $916.25.
Despite installments being collected through her wages she was still paying it off up to December 2023.
Shanon spoke exclusively to DailyMail.com this week, in the wake of her daughter’s stellar performance.
She admitted that she lives in hope for the day Simone reaches out so she can ask her daughter for forgiveness for the past she cannot change.
‘It was hard to give up my kids, but I had to do what I had to do. I wasn’t able to care for them. I was still using and [my father] didn’t want me coming in and out of their lives when I wasn’t right,’ she explained to DailyMail.com.
And she has told of her sadness that, to this day, she has no part in major life events such as Simone’s wedding last year to Owens.
She said: ‘I would like to make amends with Simone personally – I’m just waiting for her and Adria. I speak to Adria more than I speak to Simone.
‘I would just ask her to forgive me. Can we move forward? Don’t judge me on my past. Let’s move forward.’
Today Shanon is clean and sober, but she says very clearly: ‘I am a recovering addict and will always be an addict.

“I’m saying this as a wife — someone who watches her husband put his health on the line every single week for his team and for this game. I can accept a loss. I can accept how physical football is. But what happened tonight went far beyond that line. Everyone knows what a legal football play looks like. And everyone knows when a defender completely abandons the play and launches himself at a quarterback who has already released the ball. That’s no longer reaction. That’s a choice. And the hit on Patrick Mahomes was not an accident. He was fully exposed, in the most vulnerable position possible — and the defender still chose to drive straight through him. That’s reckless. That’s dangerous. And that’s how careers, and even lives, can be changed in a split second. What hurt the most was what came after — the celebrations, the smirks, the chest-pounding, as if injuring a quarterback was something to be proud of. If anyone wants to understand what was really shown tonight, don’t look at the scoreboard. Look at the reactions after that hit. Look at the silence on our sideline — and the noise on theirs. I don’t need to name names. Anyone who watches the replay knows exactly what happened. And I want to speak directly to the league and the officials: the hesitation, the late flags, the way dangerous moments get brushed aside or ‘managed’ instead of judged — we see it. The fans see it. And the lack of accountability is louder than any stadium tonight. The NFL talks constantly about protecting quarterbacks and player safety. But week after week, dangerous hits get labeled as ‘physical football,’ depending on whose jersey is involved. If that’s the standard now, then a line that should never be crossed has clearly been erased. We lost the game 13–16. That’s the score. But what’s unacceptable is that Patrick gave everything to keep his team in it — and paid for it with his health. The entire country saw what happened. You can’t erase that hit from the conversation just because the game kept moving. And I’ll say this clearly — if the league doesn’t truly step up to protect its players, if these standards continue to shift based on convenience, then tonight will not be the last time I speak up to defend my husband and tell the truth.” WATCH FULL [VIDEO] Via the link 👇👇👇

⚡️”LATEST NEWS ON DECEMBER 13: Gavin Newsom revealed that an anonymous figure sent him a three-page letter carrying a chilling core message: “12 individuals received more than 60 million dollars for helping bury a secret that shook America.” He announced that he will reveal each name live at 11 p.m. tonight. The disclosure instantly detonated a media firestorm across the United States. Those three pages were not merely a letter, but a warning—an unofficial indictment packed with details powerful enough to destabilize multiple layers of influence. Patel said he spent the entire night rereading the document, dissecting every line and cross-checking every clue, attempting to grasp the true scale of what had been hidden from the public. According to sources familiar with the contents, the 12 individuals occupy positions “no one would ever suspect.” Now, with this mysterious letter landing directly on Kash Patel’s desk, the wall of silence that protected the secret for years has officially begun to fracture. And at 11 p.m. tonight, the nation may witness what many are already calling “the hour of reckoning.”
