When it comes to amassing attention, nobody does it better than Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens. The NFL season is going on and this power couple has been the talk of the town with their shenanigans. This fact is now not hidden from anyone that Biles is the biggest cheerleader of her husband and is seen sharing mushy updates for her husband. From cheering through social media to visiting the stadiums, the gymnast has done it all.

After the recent match of Green Bay Packers against the Los Angeles Rams, Biles couldn’t stop herself from gushing over her husband. Her recent social media update sums up her feeling after the terrific win. This couple never fails to set an ideal couple goal for the world and even this time Biles successfully did it with her appreciation note.

Simone Biles shares a heartfelt note for NFL husband 

The fan base of Biles goes gaga every time she comes up with an update full of love for her husband. This NFL season has seen multiple cute moments of the couple. Be it the game, gymnastics events, or the Halloween holiday, the couple turned heads with their bond. After Jonathan Owen’s win against the Rams, the entire NFL community is proud of the team and so is the gymnastics queen. She shared a heartfelt note on social media that made all her fans go awe.

She reposted a video of Owens on her Instagram story which carried a spectacular moment of a touchdown from the previous game of the Packers that was knocked free by Owens. Biles expressed herself by stating, “So proud of you @jowens with a heart emoji”. No matter what the result for any match of Owens is, Simone never fails to extend her support and cherish the talent of his husband. To support her husband, she also flew down to the stadium fighting the extremely cold weather of Green Bay and cheer the loudest for her man.

The gymnastics queen stuns the world with her gesture of support

Simone Biles in her off-season is still ruling the headlines for her beautiful connection she shares with her husband. In the previous match of Packers against the Minnesota Vikings on the 29th of October, Biles couldn’t hold herself back from visiting the Lambeau field and being the biggest cheerleader of her husband.

While Owens was playing, she was seen gracing the VIP box with her presence and the couple was the highlight of this game. This step by the Olympian attained a negative reaction from the internet comparing to the Taylor-Travis connection. However, ignoring the negatives, she did her best to focus on her love life and keep extending the support towards her husband.

Simone Biles is eyeing a return to the Olympics after pulling out of the Tokyo Games in 2021 with the “twisties,” a mental block that can lead to a gymnast feeling lost while they are in the air.

During a Thursday appearance on the TODAY show, Hoda Kotb asked Biles what she should do if she wanted to place a $5 bet on the American’s participation in the 2024 Paris Olympics.

“Where would I put my $5? The ‘yay’ or the ‘nay?” Kotb said.

Biles responded: “Right now, I would say that’s the path I would love to go, so I wouldn’t mind if you put it in the ‘yay’ section.”

Biles returned to competition for the first time since pulling out of the Tokyo Games in 2021 at the U.S. Championship in August, where she won her record eighth United States championship.

The 26-year-old scored a 14.0 on the uneven bars, 14.8 on the balance beam, 14.9 in the floor exercise and a 15.4 in the vault. She finished first in the all-around, vault, floor and balance beam and third on uneven bars.

While speaking with Kotb on Thursday, Biles detailed how she has evolved since withdrawing from Tokyo with the “twisties”:

Simone Biles

 

“A lot of trust in my coach, my teammates, myself, most importantly, coming in that gym and making sure I’m doing those numbers, repetitions, feeling confident in them.

“There were times when I would come in the gym and I’d be like, ‘You know what? I don’t think this is going to work.’ And then I was like, ‘No, I’m going to give it another day.’ … So I think just showing up and putting that work and that effort in really came to play, so as long as I showed up for another day and kept putting that work in, then it kind of went down and dwindled.”

Biles, who has won 19 gold medals at the world championships, which is more than any other men’s or women’s gymnast in history, also said that she has placed more of a focus on her mental and physical wellbeing leading up to the 2024 Paris Games.

Biles has won four gold medals, one silver medal and two bronze medals at the Olympics. She won gold in the team, all-around, vault and floor exercise events at the 2016 Rio de Janiero Olympics.

Biles also won bronze on balance beam at the 2016 and 2020 Games and silver in the team event in Tokyo.

She’ll be aiming for more gold at the Paris Games next summer.

The NFL fans’ latest debate is Taylor Swift vs. Simone Biles. However, many also believe that it would be completely wrong to compare the two, as both are sensational stars in their respective fields. Furthermore, the commonality between the two is that they have known figures in the NFL. The American gymnast is married to Jonathan Owens, the safety of Green Bay Packers, while the singer is recently rumored to be the dating partner of the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Travis Kelce.

This comparison began when Biles recently attended the Packers’ game against the Minnesota Vikings. As Tay-Tay has attended many of the Chiefs’ contests to support Kelce and garnered widespread attention, Biles also somewhat received the same level of exposure when she came to support her husband. Furthermore, amid all these comparisons, their houses and mansions are gaining attention, too, this time.
As Taylor Swift is known for her impressive career, she is also the real estate queen. Boasting a $1.1 billion net worth, Swift has eight luxurious homes across four states. She has a West Village apartment in New York, which she rented for $17.9 million or $45,000 a month. This house comprises four bedrooms, seven bathrooms, and a big indoor pool. Besides this, Swift also owns two adjacent Tribeca Penthouses in the same city, with a combined total of 10 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. The Big Apple also has Swift’s Tribeca New York Condo Expansion in the same Tribeca building. Apart from these, the 12-time Grammy winner also has two luxurious homes in Los Angeles.

One is her 10,982-square-foot Beverly Hills Estate, and the other is a ranch-style Beverly Hills Midcentury Modern Home. However, Swift no longer owns this home as she sold it for $2.65 million, $300,000 less than the actual price. Watch Hill Seaside Estate in Rhode Island is another addition to her real estate book. This 12,000-square-foot beach house sits on the highest point of the island, with 7 bedrooms and 8 fireplaces. Tay-Tay also has two homes in Nashville: one is an 8,600-square-foot Greek Revival Estate, and the other is a 3,240-square-foot Music Row Penthouse. Swift owns many luxurious homes and is a prominent female celebrity in real estate.

‘Tells You Everything You Need to Know About America’: Fans Call Out Racial Bias After Noticing NFL Doesn’t Give Simone Biles and Husband Jonathan Owens as Much Camera Time as Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce

Simone Biles showed up and out to support her husband on the sidelines at his football game in Green Bay, and while it was nice to see them together, some fans brought up the topic of why the couple hasn’t received as much media attention as Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift.

Biles met her husband Jonathan Owens on a dating app in 2020. Owens was supportive of Biles’ decision to pull out of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics to focus on her mental health. When the pair started dating, Owens was on the Houston Texans practice squad, and he was later signed to the main roster in 2021.

      While he was playing with Houston, Biles would support the defensive back, as she showed up in an NFL hype video for the 2022-23 season sporting Texans gear. But that has changed since Owens signed with the Green Bay Packers this year.

      He and Biles got married in April, but time spent together has been cut short, as their careers have forced them to be in a long-distance relationship for the time being. On her Instagram story in July, Biles said, “long distance is tough and both being professional athletes is hard…for our schedules…”

      In an Oct. 19 interview with “TODAY,” Biles said that her season ended and that she planned to spend her time off in Green Bay to support her husband. The most decorated gymnast of all time kept that promise as she made her first appearance at a regular-season Packers game to support Owens.

      Fans say you wouldn’t know that if you saw the game because the televised broadcast did not bring much camera time to the Olympian at all. Some compared her coverage to the amount of screen time Swift has gotten over this football season just in the past few weeks.

  •  The pop singer took over attention to the league after she was first spotted at a Kansas City Chiefs game on Sept. 24. The pair has had constant eyes and media coverage on them, from sports media and celebrity outlets, ever since they walked out of Arrowhead Stadium together hand in hand. The duo even appeared on “Saturday Night Live” after being seen together in New York.Some social media users believe racial bias has played a factor in the difference, including one person who posted on social media, “I need y’all to go up for her like y’all do Taylor Swift. Let’s celebrate some black love and excellence. Representation matters.”

    Another person said, “Tells you everything you need to know about America that Simone Biles is on the sidelines at every Packers game and you don’t hear about it a fraction as much as you hear about Taylor Swift doing cringe handshakes.”

    Some fans have claimed that it is the media’s racial bias that has kept Biles and her husband from having the same spotlight as the pair dubbed “Traylor” — a combination of Travis and Taylor — while others blame Owens for having nowhere near as much clout as Kelce.

    Owens is a solid defensive player on one of the worst teams in the league, while Kelce is a future Hall of Famer on a perennial Super Bowl-contending team.

    One fan added, “Simone Biles would get the Taylor Swift treatment if she was with someone like  or  instead of marrying a journeyman safety no one really knows.” Another wrote, “They keep talking about why she don’t get the Taylor Swift coverage, that n—a a scrub that’s why.”

    Owens and Kelce will be going head-to-head on Dec. 3 as the Chiefs head to Lambeau Field, but that might not be the only marquee matchup. During her interview on the “TODAY” show, Biles let it be known that she will be in attendance, so there is a big possibility that fans will see Biles and Swift in the same stadium.

Simone Biles and her husband Jonathan Owens reunited for Halloween as they navigate their long-distance marriage.

Biles, 26, and Owens, 28, were forced to go long-distance shortly after their wedding in April when Owens — who was playing for their hometown Houston, Texas, when they met — signed with the Green Bay Packers in May.

After the gymnast was seen rooting him on during his team’s game against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, the two celebrated the spooky holiday by wearing coordinating costumes.

Owens wore a long black velvet jacket that had a vibrant cheetah print on the edges of its sleeves and collar. The look was paired with matching pants and a wide-brim hat. His accessories include a cane and a large chain that had a silver dollar sign symbol. Biles wore a long cheetah-print coat, a short purple skirt, and a tank top.

The Olympic gold medalist shared a sweet photo of their outfits on Instagram with the caption, “halloween in greenbay 🖤.”

Along with commenting “🧡🖤,” Owens shared the same snap on his Instagram account and wrote, “Halloween with my main lady 👻🧡.”

Biles shared another post that had photos of her friends celebrating the holiday with the caption, “only thing spooky about the night was the tequila shots.” She ended her recap of the festivities by sharing a photo from inside a plane on her Instagram Story with the text, “Miss you already 🫶@jowens.”

 

Last year, the couple also bought up the heat by sharing their own take on a traditional firefighter ensemble.

In Instagram photos shared by the Olympic gold medalist at the time, Biles wore a mini skirt, crop top set decorated in flames, and black heeled booties to accompany her now-husband, who wore all-black, red suspenders, a Fire Department logo cap, and Balenciaga sneakers.

During an appearance on the Today show last month, Biles opened up about how her perspective on gymnastics has changed since getting married.

Simone Biles

“Gymnastics is just something I get to come in and have the privilege of doing. I don’t feel like it’s the end all be all anymore, as before I kind of felt like that. I get to go home to my husband, to my dogs, to my house and all of the things. So it feels really good,” she said. Biles also spoke about her excitement to get to spend more time with Owens during the holidays.

“It’s been really fun supporting what he loves to do,” she said. “Obviously, he’s in Green Bay right now so my season just ended. I’m super excited to get out there to Green Bay for the holidays to support him.”

Simone Biles is undoubtedly the greatest gymnast of all time. In the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, she had a tough time as she struggled with her mental health. Gymnastics fans wondered if she would ever return to the sport she dominated for so many years. She chose to come back to international competition, rather fittingly, in Antwerp, where she won her first World titles ten years ago.

In some ways, Biles was the same gymnast she has always been. She performed insanely difficult routines and executed them to a very high standard. She supported her teammates during their routines. The main difference was the unbridled joy on her face, particularly in her floor routines. It seemed like she returned to gymnastics because it is what she loves to do and consequently she has let go of the pressure weighing on her. Biles also discussed how beneficial attending regular therapy sessions has been for her.

Biles added another four gold medals to her overflowing collection as she led the American Team to gold and individually won titles the All-around, the beam and the floor. She did not have everything her own way though. In the vault final, she first performed her own skill, a double pike somersault, and sat down on landing. Brazilian gymnast and 2022 World All-around Champion Rebecca Andrade did two brilliant vaults with two fantastic landings, and rightly won the gold. Incredibly, Biles held on to the silver medal due to the huge difficulty of her two vaults.

At the beginning of the men’s All-around final, it looked like Japanese star Daiki Hashimoto might succumb to the pressure from his country. He stumbled through his floor routine and appeared to be very stressed, but he managed to regain his composure. The second half of the competition included two of Hashimoto’s best apparatus, the vault and the parallel bars, and he climbed up the leaderboard. The final apparatus for Hashimoto’s group was the high bar, a piece on which you have to take risks to get big rewards. Hashimoto performed a daring routine filled with huge releases and he always caught the bar again. His score of 14.5 secured the gold medal. Ukrainian gymnast Illia Kovtun won the silver medal, which was very popular with the crowd. Nineteen-year-old American Fred Richard held on to the bronze medal despite falling off the high bar.

After a record-breaking World Championships in Liverpool last year, expectations were high for the British team. Ultimately, there were a lot of disappointing results. The men’s team came forth while the women’s team came sixth. Unfortunately, in the warm up for the women’s all-around final, the star of the team Jessica Gadirova felt pain in her leg, so she pulled out of all of her finals. Gadirova later revealed that the injury was an ACL tear, which makes her chances of being able to compete at the Paris Olympics very small. There was further disappointment in the men’s pommel horse final as double Olympic Champion Max Whitlock fell off half way through his routine. He had performed the routine to a very high standard earlier in the week and his score from the team final would have won the gold.

Luckily, Jake Jarman saved the championship from being a complete disaster for the British team. He qualified for the vault final in eighth place. When it was his turn, he made the most difficult vault of the final, a somersault with three and a half twists, look easy. His slightly simpler vault did not have such a good landing but it was still enough for him to claim the gold medal. Jarman became the first British World Champion on vault aged only 21.

Simone Biles has added another gold to her collection.

Biles earned a 14.800 score on her balance beam routine at Sunday’s World Championships, narrowly defeating China’s Zhou Yaqin.

The gold is Biles’ third at the 2023 World Championships and gives her a record 36 total medals between the worlds and Olympic Games.

Her triumph in Antwerp has been nothing short of amazing. At age 26, she already became the oldest woman to win a U.S. championship earlier this year and is setting all kinds of American age records at the worlds.

The return to the world stage was anything but given at her age and especially after a two-year hiatus following the 2021 Summer Olympics. She dealt with a mental health block known colloquially as the “twisties,” which leave gymnasts unable to properly control themselves in the air.

Following the Olympics, it appeared more likely that Biles would retire than return to international competition—let alone return to her perch as the best in the world.

Instead, it appears the break was just what she needed. Biles has been dominant since her return to the sport and has locked herself in as a favorite to add more gold medals to her mantle next summer in Paris.

Simone Biles is showing support for her husband in style.

On Thursday, the Olympic gold medalist, 26, shared a short video on her Instagram story flashing her fresh set of green painted nails which matched her husband Jonathan Owens’ Green Bay Packers’ green jersey.

“Forgot to post earlier so a little grown out but……,” Biles wrote in her caption. Tagging nail artist Kiwi, Biles turned her hand around before opening up her palms to reveal another angle of her nails.

NEWS:-Simone Biles’ weekly gift from husband Jonathan Owens still thrills her

The star’s nail update comes after she shared snaps of her husband while stating that she missed him due to their long distance relationship.

“Miss you,” Biles wrote over the image as she gushed over Owens, who’s playing in Wisconsin for his team’s NFL season.

In the snap, Owens looked relaxed as he wore a pair of black sunglasses and a gray t-shirt. Biles then shared another photo of the two in a mirror selfie.

The gymnast tied the knot with her Green Bay Packers strong safety husband, 28, earlier this year. “I do 🤍 officially owens 🤍,” she wrote in her caption back in April while sharing a carousel of photos of herself and Owens on their wedding day.

In the snaps, the couple displayed beaming smiles as they exchanged vows in what appeared to be a courthouse wedding. Meanwhile, Biles was dressed in a tiered white gown, while Owens wore a tan suit.

“My person, forever ❤️💍,” Owens wrote in his Instagram caption as he shared snaps of their day,”#TheOwens #ItsOfficial.”

The pair met on the dating app Raya in March 2020, before getting engaged in February 2022.

“THE EASIEST YES,” Biles wrote in a carousel post of their engagement at the time. “I can’t wait to spend forever & ever with you, you’re everything I dreamed of and more! let’s get married FIANCÉ 💍🥺🥲🤎 @jowens_3.”

Gymnastics star Simone Biles is very active on social media at the moment and is sharing constant updates about her life with husband Jonathan Owens.

The duo got married earlier in 2023 and are clearly extremely devoted to one another, as they are currently building a house together.

Owens is a strong safety for the Green Bay Packers and being in the NFL means that he is travelling all over the country each month. Despite that, he has still managed to ensure that Biles gets the same gift each week.

She shared an Instagram story which showed a huge bouquet of flowers and the accompanying message: “These showed up at the doorstep, he still makes sure I get flowers weekly even though he’s 1,000 miles away. Best husband.”

Despite being so far away, Owens had made the necessary arrangements for Biles to get her flowers.

The new home in Texas

Biles recently took to Instagram to offer a glimpse of the ongoing construction of their future Texas abode.

The tour she shared started with an image of a section of the home’s facade, wrapped in protective house coverings.

She couldn’t contain her excitement as she captioned it, “Tiles are in!!!!!!!”

In a series of photos posted to Biles’ Instagram Story, she gave her followers an update on their home’s construction.

The gymnast then revealed that the “frames for the sliding doors are in,” giving us a glimpse of the interior with bare wooden beams taking shape.

Another photo unveiled their “favorite view,” which featured their future home situated beside a serene body of water, embraced by lush greenery.

Simone Biles has an important message for fans.

The champion gymnast, 26, shared some encouraging words of wisdom with her followers as she posted two new selfies on Instagram Friday.

“Don’t worry bout fitting in when you custom made 🖤,” Simone wrote in her caption. In the photos, she gave a slight smile to the camera as she sported a natural make-up look while sitting indoors.

Elsewhere on her Instagram Story, Simone posted a photo of herself enjoying frozen margaritas with her younger sister, Adria Biles. “Sister sister 💕,” she captioned the picture.

Simone snapped Adria, 24, smiling in a kitchen as the pair raised their glasses together.

Simone previously spoke about taking on a motherly role with Adria — who was her bridesmaid at her two weddings in April and May — when they were in foster care as children.

“I wanted to take care of Adria obviously because she was the baby,” Simone said of Adria, as she discussed their close bond on her Facebook Watch series, Simone vs. Herself. “I just felt like I needed to look out for her because if family doesn’t look out for you, who’s going to?”

Simone entered the foster care system with her sister at the age of 3, as their biological mom couldn’t take care of them due to her drug and alcohol addiction.

The siblings were eventually adopted by their maternal grandparents after three years in foster care.

Biles’ latest posts come after she opened up about her changed perspective on gymnastics earlier this week, after becoming the most decorated gymnast in history following her performance at the World Gymnastics Championships.

Speaking on the Today show on Thursday, Biles said, “Gymnastics is just something I get to come in and have the privilege of doing. I don’t feel like it’s the end all be all anymore, as before I kind of felt like that. I get to go home to my husband, to my dogs, to my house, and all of the things. So it feels really good.”

She then hinted that she is now focused on supporting her husband and Green Bay Packers safety Jonathan Owens, as she wore a sparkly necklace with the name “Owens” on the show.

“It’s been really fun supporting what he loves to do,” the seven-time Olympic medalist said. “Obviously, he’s in Green Bay right now, so my season just ended. I’m super excited to get out there to Green Bay for the holidays to support him.”
