Gymnast MyKayla Skinner says she received death threats amid feud with Simone Biles

Former Team USA gymnast My Kayla Skinner says he’s been the subject of a lot of hate after… Simone Biles slammed her on social media… claiming her family even received death threats amid the drama, and she’s begging for it all to stop.

Skinner posted a lengthy video on Instagram to address the backlash he faced after… Biles’ caption pointed to… for his previous comments about the current team’s lack of work ethic… and while he thought it would all blow over, that simply hasn’t been the case.

Skinner said Biles’ fans have stepped up the bullying in the days since the insult — with some people crossing the line and threatening physical harm to her, her husband and her daughter.

“So please, at this point I’m just asking that this stops for the sake of my family because enough is enough,” an emotional Skinner said in the clip.

Skinner went on to say that his initial comments were poorly worded and that he had no intention of harming or offending the 2024 team… claiming that his words were more in reference to the “rising generation,” not the gold medal winners in particular.

“I know these women are amazing, the best of the best, and almost all of them are my former teammates who I have thoroughly enjoyed cheering on over the years.”

Skinner said he apologized to everyone on the team… and initially thought he had made amends with Biles, only to see her post the comment last week.

“If Simone truly believes that I said our team was lazy and lacking in talent and if that is truly how she feels, my heart hurts deeply,” Skinner said. “But not only because that is not how I feel or what I have said before, but because Simone’s latest post and others after it fueled another wave of hateful comments, direct messages, articles and emails.”

“I hate that it includes death threats against me, my family and even my agent. My family and friends do not deserve to be caught in the crossfire. They have done nothing.”

Skinner ended her video by directly asking Biles to step in and tell her followers to stop doing it.
