Ripples were sent across social media late Monday night after disturbing headlines and edited images claimed the Olympic champion Simone Biles had been rushed to the hospital following a “serious crash” in Houston. Tweets, TikToks, and even supposed “breaking news” banners circulated rapidly, all suggesting the gymnastics GOAT was injured and in critical care. But hold up. Before the rumor mill spins any further, let’s set the record straight.
No, Simone Biles was not involved in any car accident. This alarming story is completely false! The product of yet another viral hoax that capitalized on celebrity panic and misleading imagery. The 28-year-old is safe, sound, and very much not in the hospital. So, where exactly did this fake report come from, managing to fool so many people in such a short amount of time? Let’s take a closer look.
According to one widely shared report, the alleged accident took place around 9:40 PM on Interstate 45 in Houston. The story detailed a dramatic scene: a pickup truck supposedly lost control in rainy weather and slammed into Biles’ SUV on the driver’s side, sending it spinning into a concrete barrier. It even claimed that emergency services had to extricate her from the vehicle before rushing her to Memorial Hermann Hospital.
Adding fuel to the frenzy, the article quoted a hospital spokesperson allegedly confirming her condition. “She’s in good hands and receiving the best possible care,” the statement read. “Her condition is stable, and she is surrounded by loved ones.” It also mentioned the other driver sustained minor injuries and that an investigation was underway, but despite how real it sounded, none of it holds up under scrutiny. No official police report, hospital confirmation, or reputable news outlet has verified any part of this supposed incident.
Another Facebook post escalated the panic, falsely claiming Simone Biles tragically passed away at 28 after the alleged crash. The post even mentioned her husband had flown down to confirm the devastating news, further fueling the misinformation. Meanwhile, Simone Biles hopped on her Instagram stories today to share sweet snapshots from her best friend Kayla Simone’s baby shower. Healthy and happy as ever!

Because yes, Kayla is officially expecting! But this wasn’t just a casual pop-in. Simone made it an adventure. She dubbed the trip “road trippin’ to Austin” and even passed through a place called “Ghost Town” on the way.
Their friendship went above and beyond. It wasn’t just a big day for Kayla Simone; it was a celebration of the bond between best friends. Simone’s husband, Jonathan Owens, also jumped on Instagram stories, sharing joyful snapshots from the shower.
