Simone Biles, the legendary Olympic gymnast, is speaking out against the jokes surrounding her relationship with her husband, Jonathan Owens, who plays as a safety for the Green Bay Packers. The controversy stems from Owens' recent podcast remarks on "The Pivot," where he admitted that he didn't know who Biles was when they first connected on the celebrity dating app, Raya. Owens explained that he initially noticed Biles because she had a large number of followers, which piqued his curiosity. However, it was actually Biles who made the first move, reaching out to Owens via direct message on Instagram.

Despite not initially recognizing Biles' celebrity status, the couple hit it off instantly when they finally met in person. Owens recalls a memorable outing where they walked past a group of moms and their children, causing everyone to stop and ask for pictures. The chemistry between Biles and Owens was undeniable, and they spent the entire night laughing together.

Jonathan Owens, an undrafted free agent who signed with the Arizona Cardinals in 2018, is currently in his first season with the Green Bay Packers. He had previously spent four seasons with the Houston Texans, coincidentally in Biles' hometown. Owens and Biles got engaged in February 2022 and tied the knot in April.

Simone Biles, who has won a staggering four gold medals at this year's World Championships, is now focused on preparing for the 2024 Olympics in Paris. Her journey to the upcoming games has not been without its challenges, as she withdrew from several events in the 2020 Olympics, citing mental health struggles and experiencing a condition known as "twisties," which is comparable to the yips in gymnastics.

In response to the backlash surrounding Owens' comments, Biles took to social media to seemingly address the situation. Posting on X, she shared a meme and captioned it with, "Are y'all done yet?" This was seen as her way of sending a message to critics and asking them to move on from the controversy.

Despite the online outcry, Owens remains unfazed by the criticism. He responded to the chatter with a confident Instagram post, stating that he is “unbothered” by the comments. Biles, showing her support for her husband, commented with a heart emoji, solidifying their commitment to each other.

As the couple continues to navigate their relationship in the public eye, they remain focused on their respective careers. Owens will be suiting up for the Green Bay Packers as they face off against the Carolina Panthers, while Biles prepares for the upcoming Olympics, where she hopes to add even more gold medals to her already impressive collection.
