In a recent interview with PEOPLE at the Kentucky Derby on Monday, Biles gave somewhat of a positive update about when she and her hubby were expected to move into their new place.

“We were supposed to be in before the Olympics, and unfortunately that wasn’t the case,” she said. “So we’re just waiting for the weather to die down. We’re just… we’ll see.”

As you can see from pics of the kitchen and laundry room from October 2024, it looks like things are coming along nicely. Here’s hoping they can move in soon.
