As I delve deeper into the captivating world of this remarkable family, I find myself utterly enchanted by their vibrant and joyful lifestyle. From gymnastic feats to superhero poses, each snapshot offers a glimpse into the unique bond they share. The children’s playful antics, coupled with the unwavering love and support from their parents, create a narrative of laughter, growth, and togetherness that resonates profoundly.
Shawn Johnson East is sharing how a famous friendship nearly flamed out.
The Olympic gold medalist opened up about her close relationship with fellow American gymnast Nastia Liukin, who was a teammate during the 2008 Summer Games in Beijing.
Shawn, who is now 32, shared with Access Hollywood (on Nov. 4) that Nastia and he were close friends, training together and even roommates at the Olympics. They were only 16 and 18 years old at the time, essentially kids. Given that we were under such intense public scrutiny and competition, we found a way to balance our friendship with our rivalry on the competition floor.
However, the pressures of young stardom soon had a negative impact on their friendship.
Initially, the world seemed to offer opinions on how we should act, and among these suggestions was one that advised us to become each other’s adversaries. Consequently, communication ceased between us for a span of eight years.
In the end, they managed to find each other again and resolve their issues, thanks in part to some assistance from their partners.
Shawn clarified, “We’d chatter endlessly about one another to our respective partners, which eventually grew tiresome for them. They told us, ‘This chatter has to stop; discuss directly instead.’ So, we did. From that moment on, it felt as if no time had passed at all. We’ve become each other’s closest friends, strongest advocates, and our affection for one another remains unwavering.
Following their retirement from sports in 2012, Nastia published her book titled “Finding My Shine” in 2015. Since 2022, she’s been in a relationship with Ben Weyand. In contrast, Shawn has been keeping busy with her three children – Drew, aged 4, Jett, aged 3, and Bear, who is just 9 months old. She shares these kids with her husband, Andrew East.
In September, she told TopMob News how she and the former NFL pro manage their busy household.
She mentioned that they seem to have a solid daily rhythm established. During school days, they avoid screens altogether. Adding cartoons or similar content only complicates things for them, so their mornings are filled with plenty of playtime instead.
