Gymnastics legend Simone Biles has never been shy about supporting her husband, Jonathan Owens. She did so once again as he and the Chicago Bears celebrated their team’s latest victory on Sunday, November 9. Owens and the Bears managed to defeat the New York Giants with a score of 24-20 at Soldier Field, with the Bears now sitting in 2nd place in the NFC North Division.
How Did Simone Biles Show Her Support for Owens After His Latest Victory?
Biles has been cheering for Owens from the sidelines as he competes for the Bears during the current NFL season, wearing custom-made outfits dedicated to him that feature his name and his jersey number, 36. The two have been married since 2023, with Owens also supporting Biles as she competed at the Paris Games.
In a post on Instagram, Owens shared a carousel of photos that showed him competing against the New York Giants, captioning the post with: “We just heatin up Chicago!!!! 🔥🔥 Keep believing 🐻⬇️.”
Biles expressed her support by commenting on the post with: “😤😤tufff”
Before tying the knot in 2023, Biles and Owens first met on the dating app Raya, where the gymnast sent a message to Owens first. They began dating soon after and developed a strong bond, with Owens eventually proposing to Biles in 2022. Since then, they have often been seen at each other’s games from the sidelines, serving as a constant source of support for one another.
What Has Biles Been Up To During Her Break From Gymnastics?
Since competing at the Paris Olympics a year ago, Biles has been taking a break from gymnastics and has yet to reveal whether she will compete at the LA Olympics in 2028. During this time, she has been spending time with close friends and family, as well as making public appearances, in an effort to elevate her career beyond the mat.
But what of her workouts and general physical activity? Recently, Biles revealed in an interview with People Magazine that she has a newfound passion for horseback riding and pilates in an attempt to keep herself fit:
“Other than [Pilates], I really just do my horseback riding lessons. I had one yesterday at 5:30 PM. Usually I have it early in the morning, but since I had calls, we’re like, ‘Let’s do it the night before.'”
She also shared that her intense gymnastics schedule left little room for other activities, so discovering new passions has been a refreshing change. Still, her love for gymnastics remains strong, and she proudly cheered for Team USA athletes during her time away.
