Ever since announcing her engagement with NFL star Jonathan Owens publically, Simone Biles has been busy preparing for the big day! However, life was never this easy for Biles. Be it her professional challenges or her relationship, Simone had seen difficult times. There is no denying that she is one of America’s greatest gymnasts. With 25 World Championship medals, she had already proved her dominance.

But her personal life was not easy. Whether growing up in foster care or a difficult breakup with former gymnast and a WWE champ, Stacey Ervin Jr., Simone had been through a lot emotionally. But with Stacy, such was not always the case; the two had their happy moments. Recently, one such happy memory of the two has resurfaced.

A happy memory for Simone and Stacy

Before meeting Owens, Simone was dating Stacy, who himself was a gymnast. Before dating, the two were already good friends and comfortable in each other’s company. Standing through difficult times, the two were also each other’s strong support.

Having spent considerable time together, the duo holds many good memories, and one such memory was when Simone won at the World Championship event in 2019. She made history that year by becoming the first female gymnast in nearly 25 years to win five gold medals.
