France's Julia Simon has won two gold medals during the 2026 Winter Olympics. Of course, that's not the main reason the internet is talking about Simon today because she was recently convicted of fraud for using teammate Justine Braisaz-Bouchet's credit card in 2022. With people picking up on this story Simon then made a shushing gesture with her finger as she crossed the finish line of the women's 15km individual on Wednesday as the winner.
Simon was convicted in October. She was fined €15,000 and sentenced to a three-month suspended jail term. After the legal stuff was sorted out the French ski federation stepped in and handed her a six-month ban.
