Remember when Simone Biles secured her Paris berth, Jonathan Owens gifted her a dazzling Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watch encrusted with diamonds? The watch was an 18-carat white gold version with brilliant-cut diamonds, worth a whopping $100,000! Then in October, when the NFL player landed back in the USA after the Chicago Bears’ London game, he brought back an extravagant gift for his wife, which was concealed in a black Chanel box. But would you believe us if we told you there is something else the gymnast holds close to her heart?

In an interview with ‘Olympics Gymnastics’ on YouTube, Simone Biles talked about the best gift she has given Owens and vice versa. Let us tell you, you will be shocked by her answer.

Interviewer: “What’s the best gift you have ever gotten Jonathan?”
Simone Biles: “The best, I wouldn’t say the best gift I have ever gotten him because obviously that would be me. Okay. But I feel like his favorite and one that he has been wanting was a Rolex.”

But what is Biles’s favorite thing that her husband got her? Talking about this, she stated, “Honestly, I am like not very materialistic. It’s probably my weekly flowers. He buys me flowers every week and that’s my favorite.”

Well, who knew that Simone Biles, who is worth $25 million, would love a gift that would be approximately around $100? We reckon it is the thought and effort that she loves!

If this isn’t ‘couple goals’, then what is? We know that Simone Biles boasts a staggering net worth and every now and then flaunts her wealth by pulling off accessories she loves: Be it her $300,000 engagement ring, her “OWENS”-themed necklace, or her GOAT necklace with 546 diamonds that is estimated to be around 50,000 pounds or nearly $65,000, she loves all things that sparkle.

Sportico recently revealed its list of the top 15 highest-paid female athletes and, of course, Simone Biles had to be there! In the top 10 (she stood at number nine), she enjoys an estimated net worth of $25 million! On the other hand, Jonathan Owens is not far behind. He signed a 2-year, $4.75 million contract with the Bears this year and has been doing well on the field lately.

Thus, it’s a given that each of them indulges in an occasional luxury haul. But did you know that after returning from Paris, Biles gifted herself a brand new white Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon? She even customized the entire interior of the vehicle with reddish-orange upholstery, which skyrocketed its price to $200,000. Biles posted pictures of her new ride on social media.

Then, let us not forget that she also splurged almost $10K on a private jet to fly to Detroit to spend Thanksgiving with Jonathan Owens while he was on NFL duty. In fact, her go-to private airline service, Amalfi Jet, even endorsed the athlete as a part of their brand image.
