Gabby Douglas Expresses Frustration Over Comparisons

Gabby Douglas, a three-time Olympic gold medalist, has expressed frustration over constant comparisons to fellow Olympian Simone Biles.

On social media, Douglas stated she didn't mind her fame settling down, as she felt burnt out.

The comparisons started after Biles became a big name in the Olympics, with some people seemingly brushing Douglas aside.

A TikToker expressed frustration at how people "dropped" Douglas once Biles stepped onto the scene.

Douglas, 28, took a six-year hiatus from the Olympics after the 2016 Rio De Janeiro Games.

She decided to return to competition after seeing Team USA win gold at the 2022 World Championships.

Douglas is considering a return for the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, despite a foot injury halting her from competing in the Paris Games.

She shared in an interview with E! News that she is having fun playing around with different skills.

Douglas said she was feeling burnt out from being in the public eye, with constant bullying taking a toll on her.

She wrote "that's ok! constantly being bullied is very tiring and wearing on me" in the comments section.

The TikToker who expressed frustration over the comparisons to Biles concluded her video by reiterating her love for Douglas.

She asked "When was the last time you thought about Gabby Douglas?" and stated she thinks about Douglas all the time.

Douglas appreciated the love, writing "thanks for the love! definitely needed in this world".

She is focused on living her life and being at peace, as stated in her social media post.
