The lovely outfits featured a night-sky-inspired bodysuit and a short dress underneath a skirt embellished with many crystals. In addition, Biles' gown had a long train with beautiful stones, and she accessorized it with diamond earrings.

Minutes after the snapshot was shared, users trooped to the comments section in admiration of the youngster. While some dropped kind words, others appeared to be unimpressed by the athlete's appearance.

A fourth fan admitted that although she was Biles' fan, she did not love her look. A fifth respondent wrote, "Hate the outfit. Love her," and another asked why Biles wore the outfit.

It is not the first time Biles has been subjected to negative comments from social media users. Time and again, she has spoken candidly about her struggles with body shaming.

She once revealed via an Instagram post that negative comments about her figure weighed her down. However, she said she had learned to put on a solid front and let everything slide.

In an interview with Today, Biles opened up about her challenges growing up as she dealt with bullying because of her athletic figure. Biles often wore sweaters to cover her arms, but being around fellow gymnasts helped her become confident and comfortable.

Despite the body-shaming comments, Biles remains one of the celebrated gymnasts in history. She was adopted at six years old with her sister, Adria, by their maternal grandparents, Ronald and Nellie.

Despite her difficult background, she fought hard to achieve great fame and fortune in the world of athletics. Simone is the most decorated gymnast of all time and a seven Olympic medals holder.

She claimed her seventh U.S title at the just concluded 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Biles needs three medals to pass Vitaly Scherbo to become the most decorated gymnast in the Olympics and the world.
