Simone Biles just doesn’t seem to catch a break. After getting her redemption story sorted at the French capital, Biles refused to rest. She immediately jumped right into the Gold Over America Tour, enthralling her fans with some of her signature mesmerizing moves.
Traveling throughout America, Biles just got some respite by having the GOAT caravan come to her hometown in Houston. However, once that is done, Biles’ busy life is once again rolling. This time, it is time for the 7x Olympic gold medalist to get involved with the tinsel town again.
While Biles is no stranger to the camera, her recent outing for the premiere of Netflix’s version of her documentary, ‘Simone Biles Rising’ was quite an event. Traveling to Los Angeles, Biles decked up in a gorgeous Galia Lahav black dress with a blend of floral motifs to compliment her look. However, she was not alone.

The queen of US gymnastics was also accompanied by her family members. In a snapshot of the event in LA uploaded by X account ‘The Hollywood Reporter’, Biles was spotted posing for the camera with her father Ronald Biles, mother Nellie Biles, and her beloved little sister, Adria Biles. And while her family was present to soak in all the excitement, Jonathan Owens most certainly felt the FOMO going strong.

In his latest Instagram story, the Chicago Bears star posted a couple of images of his queen, all decked up. He captioned the post, “My baby Premiere ready!!!!” As a matter of fact, Owens managed to squeeze out some time from his busy Bears schedule to meet Biles in the middle of her GOAT tour. The duo went out to a romantic dinner and also strolled on the streets casually, holding each other’s hands, while indulging in occasional shopping.
Coming back to Biles’ documentary, the first part of the series dropped right before the Olympics. It navigated through Biles’ childhood and portrayed her struggles growing up to be a legend of the game. With the overwhelming reception that the series got, Netflix already announced that the Katie Walsh-directed documentary will come back for its final two parts. Releasing on October 25, the 3rd and 4th episodes will dive into her redemption arc in Paris. However, despite Owens not being able to accompany his lady love, the Chicago Bears’ star did ensure that he did not miss out on Biles’ Olympic performance.

Jonathan Owens’ ‘trick’ that earned him his Paris tickets
Jonathan Owens landed one of the best deals in the NFL with the Chicago Bears recently. Joining the practice with the team, Owens was otherwise thrilled to be a part of the unit. But there was one problem. With just days left for the Olympics, Biles’ husband needed some time off to travel to Paris. However, asking for leave within hours of joining the camp seemed like a bad idea for Owens. Thus, failing to fathom how to approach the situation, Owens decided to play some trick.
He immediately took to his agent and whispered in his words to spread the word about the Paris Olympics. Speaking with David Kaplan on YouTube recently, Owens recalled the moment. He said, “I’m like you know… the Olympics uh you know in the summer… right in training camp you know just kind of putting the bug in…They basically asked me what days did I want to miss and I gave them I said the 29 or the third I said these are the two finals that I want to be able to check out like. And they ended up like both dates are fine.” However, things turned out quite pleasantly for Owens as he was granted a total of 5 days of leave.

Surely enough, all his efforts to catch his wife LIVE in Paris came to fruition. Winning a whopping three golds and a silver medal, Simone Biles etched her name on the Olympic history books as one of the GOATs who trod the earth as the greatest of all time. And while Owens did miss the premiere, he will surely find time out to cherish the golden moments with Simone Biles, sitting in a cozy corner, once both the lovebirds get some respite from their busy schedules.
