Jordan Chiles’ mother, Gina Chiles, reacted to the gymnast resuming her collegiate career in full swing after the conclusion of DWTS. Chiles returned to UCLA after the Paris Olympics and proved at this year’s NCAA Championships what makes her stand out.
The two-time Olympic gold medalist has consistently proven herself to be a strong presence both on and off the mat, having recently participated in DWTS, where she was partnered with professional dancer Ezra Sosa. The duo danced their way to the finale, winning hearts and two perfect scores, and finishing in third place.
