Oh that photo is adorable. I loved seeing him in the stands keeping score.
Fuck yeah if I won gold medals, I’d be letting my whole family wear them
Let’s just celebrate this incredible athlete being the most accomplished gymnast of all time! 🥇
This is one of those ridiculous things that is best ignored. Don’t give the haters attention, that’s what they want. No defense is needed.
She didn’t *defend* him because she didn’t *need* to. She, quite appropriately, told the trolls to mind their own fucking business and I am HERE FOR IT.
I dream of a world where people just live and let others do the same. Humans have become (have always been?) this overly judgey species. If it does not physically or mentally harm you in some awful manner- mind your own business. And if it does harm you- instead of harassing the person(s) turn away and again- mind your own business.
How dare she share her victory with the person who supported her throughout her journey! /s
Fucking weirdos! She won gold for the USA, this should make you happy MAGA freaks.
Imagine even recognizing these weirdos who wouldn’t think twice about stealing some volor just to look “cool”
Simone won that medal with her skill and hard work. But I’m sure having the love and support of her husband certainly didn’t hurt her chances. Like many couples, they probably share in each others achievements. In this case, a gold fucking Olympic medal
It’s nobody’s business.
My spouse could insert it in their ass if they wanted to, it is ours
Who is mad about this, let me guess, MAGA weirdos?
Man people are so concerned and offended by what others do that affects literally no one other than themselves. Get a hobby lmao
What a ridiculous article to write as if this is important news
Was he wearing a beige suit at the same time or something?
How about we let her do WHATEVER THE FUCK SHE LIKES with HER medals SHE EARNED?
I wish more celebrities and athletes would do away with the justifications and what not and just tell people to fuck off.
They’re people too. If you watch follow them, fine, they can be your idol. They aren’t asking for it.
She’s right. These people are fucking miserable.
Seriously. The ignorance and rudeness of some people. How proud her husband must be of her, and how awesome that she shares it with him!
Can you imagine how empty your life must be to be bothered by something like this?
no kidding. look what nhl players do the supposedly revered Stanly Cup.
I feel like things are to the point where this poor woman has to defend what she buys at the grocery store. Leave her alone, internet
YOU TELL ‘EM! It’s cute AF!
If I had that many gold medals I’d be using them for coasters, let alone be funny about someone else wearing it
Every time I see a reel or post on Instagram of Simone and her husband, almost all the comments are about how her husband is untrustworthy, fame seeking, not into her, etc.
I thought I was out of the loop and there must be some shady past about him, (especially because they seem like such a loving couple), but the more I see comments about it on Reddit, the more I realize it’s a completely fake and made up narrative by haters. It blows my mind.
Why does she need to defend it? Who was bummed?
I truly hope Simone has a support system that shows her how the majority of the U.S. and world feels about her, because I Love her and am so amazingly proud of how strong she is, she’s the best role.model and she deserves nothing but the best
It has been taboo for anyone other than the awarded athlete to wear an olympic medal. Not saying it’s a great unwritten rule, but it’s one that’s been followed (mostly) for over a century of competition.
I’ve seen quite a few athletes share their joy this Olympics by draping their medals around their parents’ necks, and I think it’s totally appropriate!Each athlete relies on a support network to get where they are.
Wait, why would it matter if he wore it? People getting outraged about things that have nothing to do with them is pathetic.
How petty. I’d imagine if I won a gold medal that would be just as much a victory for my friends and family who supported me through it all. They all deserve gold.
Everyone just needs to fucking chill like seriously
“Defends” … like she has to defend herself against anything.
The people who write this kind of shite should be locked away in dungeons.
They’re her medals. If she wants to let her dog wear them I’m ok with it. GOAT can do whatever GOAT wants to do IMO.
Yeah fuck off, what I do with my Olympic medals is my business (if I had any!).
You don’t wanna see her share medals maybe y’all should beat her in tgw olympics instead of crying about it online
Yet no one goes after the NHLers who let their friends and family hoist the cup. Fuck these dumb people telling her this.
