Rumors of Simone Biles' pregnancy are circulating again
Despite the rumors, Biles has still not said whether she is pregnant or expecting a child.
The claims that she was pregnant circulated primarily on Facebook, stating that Fox News had reported that she was “expecting a baby.” However, Fox News stated that it had made no such report, in an email response to Snopes.
The investigation found that the rumor began as early as August 5, when a Facebook profile called "Daily Mail Report 2.0" posted a message on Facebook about Simone Biles' pregnancy with a link to a website called usalod.com that "did not appear to be a reliable news source." The article included an alleged quote from Biles saying, "I'm looking forward to the next chapter of my life with my growing family."
