Jonathan Owens and Simone Biles share a love like no other. From tattooing her initial ‘S’ on his ring finger to flying miles to support her in Paris, we’ve seen how he adores the very floor she walks on. But you’d think Owens would let his love get in the way when going head-on against her in a friendly challenge? Well, you might be mistaken.

Appearing in a recent YouTube interview on the channel, Not Just Football with Cam Heyward, Simone Biles let out one of Owens’ lesser-known traits. When the host reminded her of the rope-climbing challenge she threw Owens’ way in 2021, followed by asking who’s more competitive among the two, she answered, “Jonathan, 100 percent.”

Justifying it, she added, “Whenever we play games or we go somewhere, I don’t typically care about losing in those situations. As long as I’m having a good time. I’m always laughing.” But Owens is the one who gets serious, “He like, we play darts on the phone and if he loses he’s like, we’re playing  it again.” While Simone Biles reaction mostly is, “I’m like, who cares?,” she reveals how, “He’s very competitive in that nature.”

She then adds how Jonathan has this need to be good in everything he does, but on the other hand, she cares very little. “I’m just like always laughing, having a good time,” she says. Clearly, over the past three years, the tables have turned. Back in 2021, as seen in the Facebook Watch original docuseries, Simone Biles vs Herself, Biles had competed against the Chicago Bears star in a rope climbing challenge.

Neither his height advantage nor his arm strength proved equal to Simone Biles’ technical skills. For he not only lost the challenge but also by a rather big margin. While he accepted that generously saying, “I burned out,” he seems to have turned way more competitive over the years. But Biles can only adore that as another one of his typical traits.

Now, he may not let her get away with the wins, but he has a very subtle way of giving her reminders and encouraging her.

Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens are the perfect power couple

October 25, part 2 of the Netflix series, Simone Biles’ Rising drops, but the promo is already out. And it shows Owens presenting a different said of their relationship, the motto for which remains, “You want to be the most human you can be with each other ’cause it’s hard being in the public eye.” 

Now who understands this better than the two, for they’ve navigated the phase where Biles returned from Tokyo and felt, “America hates me.” But even during those trying times, Owens kept motivating her with, “You’ll get back to where you were.” And the best part? He was trying to do the maximum he could without being bossy. Be it reminding her to go for therapy on time, he boosted her morale but with great sensitivity.

And he continues to go above and beyond for her to date. While she made sure to stop by for his NFL game at Soldier Field, so did he arrive in Milwaukee to surprise her ahead of the Gold Over America Tour show. And he was not going to come in empty handed, right? Simone Biles then added a story of Owens posing with a heart-shaped bouquet of roses, red on the outline and golden ones in the middle, which he’d specially brought for her. “THE BEST SURPISE, ilysfm,” she wrote as caption.

Well, clearly, Owens never fails to surprise her, or make her laugh. Thus, she agrees, “struck gold with this one.” What do you think of the couple? Let us know below!
