We love to follow along and watch Simone Biles and Aly Raisman succeed, and we always get giddy when the gymnasts reunite. The two did just that recently, and Biles, 26, shared an adorable TikTok clip as they got ready together.
In the clip, the two women stood side by side in a bathroom, decked out in fuzzy white bathrobes. Raisman, 29, threw her arm around her pal’s shoulder before Biles put her hand up to the camera lens for a seamless transition. When she removed her hand, both ladies were dressed to impress.
Raisman opted for a brown houndstooth blazer, which she paired with a top of the same color, high-waisted brown leather shorts and a pair of knee-high boots. Biles, on the other hand, chose a black mini dress with a white blazer thrown over top and a similar pair of footwear.
The true icing on the cake was a photograph shared to Laurie Hernandez’s Instagram account, in which the three women posed arm-in-arm in the same bathroom. The trio were all part of the “Final Five” U.S. women’s gymnastics team that took home the gold medal at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
While Raisman has since retired from her sport, Biles became the most decorated gymnast in history last month. Today, Hernandez works with brands like UNICEF and Nike to advocate for children’s rights and promote wellness, respectively.
While it’s not totally clear why the gang is back together, we’re completely thrilled—which seems to be the general consensus of fans, as well.
“Olympic Royalty 🇺🇸 👏,” one person commented on Hernandez’s IG pic.
“The 15 year old in me is screaming crying throwing up,” another fan added.
“ahhh feels like my childhood all over again 🙌,” someone else cheered.
