Holland also mentioned that Bowie didn't want to have her baby in a hospital.

“As an adult, you make your own decisions,” Holland said. “We probably would have handled everything differently to make sure everything was done properly.”

As Mom.com previously reported, one of Bowie's teammates took to Instagram to share a shocking and devastating statistic about their Olympic team.

"THREE (3) of the FOUR (4) of us who ran on the SECOND fastest 4x100m relay of all time, the 2016 Olympic Champions, have nearly died or died in childbirth," Tianna Madison said, referencing herself, Bowie, and Felix.

Felix also chimed in on the conversation, alluding that there's more work to be done around Black maternal health in the United States.
