If you are an avid Simone Biles fan, there’s no way you haven’t heard about her husband, Jonathan Owens. Both of them are masters in their respective sports and are highly regarded as one of the best sports couples out there. Why so? They have maintained their relationship through many ups and downs. Indeed, it wasn’t all rainbows and sunshine for them, as their strict schedules many times required them to be in a long-distance relationship, away from each other. But has this made them question their love for each other? Absolutely not!

However, when there’s love, there’s always a bit of tug-of-war between the couple. Yes, arguments are common in any relationship, as when the problem is solved, it only results in a deeper bond between the two. However, recently, the gymnast has come clean about the fights that she has had in the past with her husband.

Simone Biles not hiding her deeds

2024 was a vital year for Simone Biles. She made her comeback in 2023, and coming to the campaign, she had earned herself a handful of accolades to make her fans anticipate a ton from her in Paris. So, the pressure was on her, and just like any other athlete, she was fully focused on her conquest to make a grand return at the Olympic Games.

However, no gymnast can qualify for the coveted event without competing in the US Olympic Trials, which also feature the GOAT of gymnastics. So she was quite anxious about the event and unveiled it during an interview with SI, stating, “I’m being mean to him. My mom says I’m mean on meet days.” Who knew one of the sweetest gymnasts on the mat had another side to her?

Indeed, the pressure talks about it all. Biles is no regular gymnast, and there was a ton on her plate to prove to the audience. So when there’s competitive pressure on somebody, adrenaline is at its peak, making a person a grumpy version of themselves. And who was the target of Biles? Her husband, Jonathan Owens. But did the minor fight hamper their relationship? Absolutely not!

Owens is an athlete himself, and he knows what triggers such a kind of aggression in his partner. He has been with Biles for a long time and has watched her fall from grace to making a comeback in gymnastics that no one ever expected. As a result of their frequent interactions, he has a deeper understanding of his wife than anyone else. However, it’s commendable that Biles never rejected or denied her aggression toward her husband during her time on the mat. Adrenaline is surely getting the most out of the gymnast.

There have been many different moments in their relationship, but Biles and Owens have always accepted themselves. Both Biles and Owens stood by each other through their highs and lows, and they overcame life’s challenging obstacles to achieve success, both individually in their sports and as a couple. Indeed, they are an example to many out there, and even the gymnast’s recent Christmas endeavor shows her understanding of her husband.

Different kind of holiday season for her

Since the beginning of the holiday season, the NFL schedule has made it difficult for Jonathan Owens and Simone Biles to spend significant time together. Why so? Right after Christmas, the Chicago Bears were set to face off against the Seattle Seahawks, and Owens was a part of the team. Therefore, he had to dedicate his time to practicing and staying with his team, leaving his wife behind to fulfill his NFL duties. But was Biles mad at her husband? No, because she understands the hard work Owens is putting into his football matches.

However, what did the gymnast have in store for the holiday season? Biles collaborated with the DICK’S Sporting Goods store in Houston for their holiday campaign. The store offered her the opportunity to decorate it with a festive vibe, a task she ultimately accomplished. In a promotional video, the Olympian was seen standing beside four Christmas trees and two gold-plated goats, wearing gold medals, indicating her status in gymnastics as a GOAT. But what’s a Christmas without gifts? As they were also part of his creative decoration from Biles.

So what was the true purpose of this campaign? The DICK’S Sporting Goods and the DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation gave the gymnast a whopping $100,000 in donations. Why so? This money was then used to empower the local sporting organizations that support young athletes in Houston. Indeed, such a kind act elevated the vibes during the holiday season. Biles has always been known for her empowering nature, and watching an Olympian giving back to her local community would’ve been a blast for the kids in the locality of Houston, who aspire to be her in the future.
