Simone Biles reveals how husband Jonathan Owens supports her as Team USA’s gymnastics star says goodbye to him before jetting off to the Olympics
With a trip to Paris for the Olympic Games set in her near future, Simone Biles had to say goodbye to her husband, Jonathan Owens.
On Monday, the three-time Olympian shared a pair of snaps to her Instagram Story featuring herself and her husband as she gets ready to join Team USA abroad.
‘See you in Paris baby,’ wrote Biles, who just recently celebrated her one-year wedding anniversary.
The seven-time Olympic medalist shares a smile with a shirtless Owens in one of the snaps.
In another, she showed a comfy looking bed covered in an Olympics quilt with a stuffed animal – appearing to be a goat – also sitting on it.
Owens is set to take some time away from Chicago Bears training camp in order to watch his wife compete at the Paris Games.
He recently told People about his enthusiasm to watch Biles do her thing on the world’s stage.
‘It’s super exciting just because I get a chance to see all the work that she puts in prior to, and you know what? Everything she goes through and dealing with the media and everything, and she still goes out there and does it,’ Owens said, while speaking about his new partnership with GoodSport. ‘It’s just impressive.’
Owens said that in their downtime from watching Biles try to smash the competition, they plan on viewing some art and doing a little shopping as the Bears safety visits the City of Light for the first time.
Biles also shared one thing the couple has in common – that they both enjoy getting their hair done.
In a video call with Elle Magazine, Biles mentioned how she had recently gotten braids in her hair – with Owens telling her ‘Oh my gosh I love it’.
‘He loves the smell of hair being straightened,’ Biles told the magazine. ‘He gets his hair braided every two weeks, so we’re in a similar boat.’
