Personal life
[edit]Simianer is originally from Loveland, Colorado. When she was a sophomore in high school, she and her brother were forced to live in a trailer when their father was living with his new wife and her children, and their mother disappeared when they were still very young. When her brother Wyatt turned 18, he left to go search for their mother and Morgan was forced to live alone in the trailer.[14] When her grandparents became aware of the situation, they invited her to live with them.[15][16] She attended Navarro College in Corsicana, Texas, where she was a member of the cheer team coached by Monica Aldama.[17] In January 2020, she appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, along with other members of the team.[18][19][20]
In May 2023, Simianer married Stone Burleson at a ceremony in Hickory Creek, Texas.[21]
