Gabby Douglas Hospitalized Again for 'Seriously Infected' Mouth Injury After She Had to Skip the VMAs

Gabby Douglas  missed the MTV Video Music Awards after she was admitted to a hospital for undisclosed reasons.

The gymnast announced the news on Instagram, sharing a photo of herself wrapped up in a blanket on a bed in what appeared to be a hotel room in New York City.

"Out of the hospital & resting comfortably! #FinalFive so sad I can't be with u all to present tonite@MTV thank u xoxo #VMAs #myview."

Douglas was scheduled to join her Final Five teammates – which include Simone Biles, Laurie Hernandez, Madison Kocian and Aly Raisman – to present at the MTV award show in Madison Square Garden on Sunday night. And it was clear her fellow Olympic champs were thinking of her.

"I think she's feeling a little better, but she's staying home as a precaution," said Biles on the red carpet. "We're sad she couldn't be here to enjoy this with us. We miss her!"

It's been a rough August for Douglas, who was the darling of the London 2012 Olympics. During the Rio Games, she was criticized for not placing her hand over her heart when the nation anthem played as the Final Five received their gold medals in the team all-around competition. (She later explained that she was "standing at attention," which many athletes do when their national anthem is played.) The 20-year-old gymnast also failed to medal in any of the individual competitions, despite the fact she had a historic win when she nabbed gold for the individual all-around competition in London.
