Controversy

In 2018, it was reported that Reid's former coach Simon Watkins accused her of exaggerating her physical and intellectual conditions and symptoms.[1] The Australian Paralympic Committee dismissed these allegations, describing them as "opinion" by a non-medical professional, saying that she had been through "rigorous assessment processes" and that it was "not uncommon to change classifications".[40]
