Discover the Current Whereabouts of Your Beloved Olympic Gymnasts
Mastering that metaphorical balance beam is crucial because there are more triumphs to be had once Olympic gymnasts retire their leotards.
Look at Shawn Johnson and the team she created with her husband Andrew East. After winning a gold medal and three silvers at the Beijing games in 2008, Shawn now works as a correspondent. She will be in France with her daughter Drew, 4, and sons Jett, 2, and Bear, 6 months.
“It may sound cliché, but there is something special about returning to the Olympics 16 years later, with my husband and my babies,” she told E! News in May. “My kids are not really interested in any of it. They just want to go to a candy store. But the fact that we are actually experiencing this is quite exciting.”
And she is not the only former Team USA member savoring the sweetness of life. Discover what she and other gymnasts have been doing since retiring from the sport.
