Recently, Jonathan faced backlash for wearing one of Simone’s gold medals, which Team USA secured in the team final competition.
Simone quickly addressed the criticism, commenting under a TikTok video that had slammed him: “Crazy thing is, I put my medal on every single one of my family members and took pictures. So don’t ever make assumptions.”

She didn’t hold back her frustration, adding, “Like y’all are so…miserable. Leave us alone.”
Simone, who became the most decorated U.S. Olympic gymnast at the Paris Games, has often had to navigate public scrutiny alongside her incredible achievements. In April, she opened up about the toll such negativity can take, especially when it involves her loved ones.
During an appearance on the Pivot podcast, she admitted that criticism directed at Jonathan had deeply affected her. “I thought it was hilarious at first and then it hurt my feelings,” she shared.
“One night I broke down and I’m like, ‘Why are you guys talking about my husband like this? You don’t know him. You don’t know who he is and if anybody’s met him, you know he’s the sweetest guy, will do anything for anybody.’”
