Simone Biles reunites with mom Nellie in heartwarming scene hours after winning gold at Paris Olympics

Simone Biles' reunion with her mom Nellie after winning Olympic gold was caught on camera in Paris on Tuesday night.

Biles, 27, led the United States to their fourth Olympic gold in the women's team event with dazzling performances on all four apparatus. It was her fifth gold medal, making her USA's most decorated gymnast in Olympic history.

And after etching her name once again into the history books, Biles was filmed reunited with her understandably emotional mother Nellie in the French capital.

NBC cameras caught Biles walking with her NFL-playing husband Jonathan Owens when she spotted her mom and ran over to hug her.

Nellie kissed Biles on the cheek before holding her daughter's gold medal aloft with hundreds of fans witnessing the emotional scenes alongside the television cameras.

While Biles was in the mood to celebrate on Tuesday night, she also made a point of silencing her doubters. 

On her Instagram after the accomplishment, Biles posted a picture of the team with a brutal caption.

'lack of talent, lazy, olympic champions,' the post read.

That appears to be a specific dig at a former Team USA gymnast, MyKayla Skinner, who criticized the team's makeup in the run-up to the games.

In a now-deleted YouTube video, Skinner blasted the team of Biles, Jordan Chiles, Suni Lee, Jade Carey, and Hezly Rivera for not having the right 'work ethic'. 

'Besides Simone, I feel like the talent and the depth just isn't like what it used to be,' the 27-year-old said. 

'The girls just don't have the work ethic,' Skinner continued before referencing the US Center for SafeSport - a non-profit organization set up to reduce sexual abuse of minors and athletes in US Olympic sports. 

'And it's hard too because of SafeSport. Like, coaches can't get on athletes and they have to be really careful what they say.

'Which, in some ways, is really good. But at the same time, to get to where you need to be in gymnastics you do have to be, I feel like, a little aggressive and a little intense.'

In the immediate aftermath of that, Biles clapped back at Skinner, writing on Threads, 'not everyone needs a mic and a platform'. 

Biles and a number of other gymnasts, including Chiles, Lee, and Carey, all blocked Skinner on social media after her comments.

Skinner would later go on to apologize for her comments.

But they didn't sour the mood as the other members of the Olympic champions celebrated with their families.

Chiles, was seen running into the arms of her mother in celebration after they reunited in Paris.

Chiles was the only American other than Biles to compete in all four events in the team event. 

The emotions also came out for Suni Lee - who led the Americans in the uneven bars and the balance beam.

Lee was seen hugging her mother as she was seen tearing up.

Up next for the Americans is the individual events in the floor, uneven bars, balance beam, and vault - as well as the individual all-around.
