Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens are the ultimate sporting couple. The gymnast and the footballer don’t miss opportunities to support each other during an important event whenever the other is free. Jonathan was seen heavily invested at the Paris Olympics, where Simone picked up four medals. The football player was seen carrying a diary in the stands while she was competing to keep her scores. Thus, he really cares about her.
Now the gymnast is reciprocating the support he gave her at his NFL games. She has been regularly attending most of the games featuring Jonathan Owens. However, Simone is not doing it in an ordinary fashion. Instead, the Olympic gold medalist has been doing it in complete style, and as a result, her clothing during games has caught the attention of the fans now on numerous such occasions.
However, the December 26th Chicago Bears match with 62,500 fans attending saw her wearing a very interesting outfit, which was immensely loved by Jonathan Owens. This is because Simone Biles had arrived in a hoodie with her husband’s photo in it, surprising him. The clothing was very interesting, and GQ Sports uploaded an Instagram post of Simone wearing the hoodie.

This was then later uploaded by Jonathan Owens in his Instagram story, who was clearly awed by his wife’s dressing sense and praised her in the caption. He said, “Ain’t she beautiful❤🤞She kept it on!!! 🔥. “ Thus, he clearly loved the outfit, thus fulfilling its purpose. It was interesting to see her wear that outfit, and she did drop hints about it days before the match.
The existence of the special attire was confirmed by the gymnast on December 22 in a backseat interview with Olympics Gymnastics. She had been asked about her outfits and which one was her favorite among them. Surprisingly, Simone said, “My favorite one so far is one that I have at home, and I’m wearing it to Thursday’s game.” So, she kept her favorite outfit safe for the occasion, designed by a specific designer.
The artist behind Simone Biles’ outfit
While Simone Biles has enjoyed the attention coming from the audience for the Jonathan Owens dress, another person also deserves some credit. It is from custom jersey designer Kelly Daley, who has already made quite some noise in the world of art. In the story that Simone posted with the dress, she tagged Kelly, who later re-uploaded it on her own Instagram story, thanking Simone for wearing her dress. “My favorite outfit of the season. Thank you again for trusting me with this custom design,” said Kelly.

It seemed like Simone had noticed the artist’s work and liked her work and thus asked her to customize one for her. Her choice of designer seemed appropriate, as Kelly knows how to combine personal and familiar connections of the person while designing a dress. Thus, Simone Biles’ Jonathan Owens attire was done to perfection with that perfect personal touch to it. And without a doubt, it did become such a massive hit among the fans.

Simone Biles wore the dress on December 26th when the Chicago Bears played against the Seattle Seahawks. The game ended terribly for Jonathan Owens’ side, as they ended up continuing their losing streak with an uninspired performance. But it seems that for the defensive safety, the fact that his wife showed up to his game to support him meant a lot to him, and thus he acknowledged her dress despite not having the best day on the field. This shows the love they have for each other.
