Simone Biles & Laurie Hernandez Reunite At ‘Dancing With The Stars’ Tour
Simone Biles and Laurie Hernandez are still setting
#friendshipgoals.
The Olympic gymnasts reunited during a “Dancing with
the Stars” tour stop on Thursday, and documented the occasion on social
media.
Despite looking thrilled to see one another, the girls’
get-together apparently didn’t go quite as planned.

“When you’re both trying to surprise each other bc you don’t think the other one knew,” Simone wrote on Instagram, captioning an adorable shot of her and Laurie smiling together in a warm embrace.
Laurie also shared her excitement, posting a cute Instagram video of her and Simone shrieking happily in each other’s presence.

“Saw my other half today,” she captioned her post, adding the hashtag “#BigSis” alongside smiley face and heart emojis.
“I missed her!” Simone said in the clip, while giving her fellow gold medalist a hug.
Simone shared additional photos from the fun-looking evening, including a snap of her and Laurie posing with “DWTS” pro Emma Slater – to whom Simone offered congratulations on her recent engagement.
“These girls killed it last night,” Simone captioned another pic of her, Laurie and Emma with dancers Jenna Johnson and Hayley Erbert.

The besties’ reunion comes months after they dominated the Rio Olympics as part of Team USA’s Final Five.
In November, Laurie added the “DWTS” mirrorball trophy to her collection of accolades after she and pro partner Val Chmerkovskiy were named the show’s Season 23 champions.
