Shannon Biles had to make the difficult decision to give up her children, Simone and Adria, for adoption to Ronald and Nellie. She was not devastated that she couldn't care for them due to her struggles with addiction. Shannon wasn't allowed to see her children for six years, but she knew it was the best decision for them at the time.
Shanon is in touch with her birth mother who seems to be supportive of her, but Simone Biles feels that her bond with her adoptive parents is stronger. Unfortunately, Biles does not have a relationship with her biological father, Kelvin Clemons, who also struggled with drug addiction like Shanon's birth mother.
Shanon Biles prefers to keep a low profile, but it is rumored that she resides in Columbus, Ohio. According to court documents, she has faced various legal issues in the past, including speeding violations and being placed on probation for assault, with the most recent incident occurring in 2021.
In a podcast interview from April 2024, Simone Biles discussed her family dynamics and expressed gratitude for them. She mentioned that she doesn't feel the need to explain her family structure to others, as it can be confusing for people. Biles shared that her biological mother is also her father's daughter, and she refers to him as Dad. She considers herself fortunate to have received her parents' choice despite the complexity.
