Simone Biles has made the front page several times. Alongside gymnastics, she has stolen the football limelight as well. All thanks to her husband Jonathan Owens, who plays for the Green Bay Packers. Standing tall against the icy Wisconsin weather, the 26-year-old has never missed a chance to back her beloved. However, not all the members of Simone Biles camp are on the same page. A few days back, coach Cecile Landi and bestie Jordan Chiles announced their allegiance for the Cowboys, being true Texans. Now, more additions to that list has come to the fore.
Ron and Nellie Biles, originally Simone Biles’ grandparents, have been nothing but the best adoptive parents of both siblings. From setting up the World Championships Centre to clasping their hands during her World Championships magic moment, the parents have done it all. But the substantial love the Olympian gets, her husband may have to toil to achieve that.

While the Owens family, along with the fur babies, has girded up to support their main man, Nellie and Ron take their pick. The Packers await a fierce head-on with the Dallas Cowboys tomorrow, but the recent Houston Texans vs Cleveland Browns had the oldies cheer on their favorites. The X post of the Fox 26 former sports director Mark Berman reads, “@Simone_Biles parents, Ron & Nellie, together at NRG Stadium, but their loyalties are split”. While the aforementioned statement might leave you muddled, the following line clears the air. Further reads, “They’ve lived in the Houston area for 35 years, but Ron is from Cleveland & a die-hard @Browns fan. @BilesNellie is a die-hard @HoustonTexans fan”.

With the common cheer slogan “Go Pack Go”, the Olympian is often seen blessing Lambeau with her presence. But their career commitments haven’t let the couple reside under the same roof for long. Had Owens played for the Houston Texans even at this date, Nellie Biles would have been an attendee for sure. But his wife’s long-distance or in-person support plays the best role.
