Demanding sacrifices go hand in hand with successful sports careers. Olympic gymnast Simone Biles and Green Bay Packers? safety, Jonathan Owens understand this all too well. After facing nearly 40 days of separation, with Biles at the Nationals and Owens’s Packers training camp, the two love birds were finally united. However, this joy was short-lived. Now Owens faces the rigors of the NFL season, while Biles will be preparing for the upcoming World Artistic Gymnastics Championships. This situation once again calls for the couple to be apart. Regardless, Biles added a fun twist to it.

While constant farewells from her star husband are quite upsetting, the Olympian faces greater issues. As much as Biles loves the company of Owens, she also does not like being cold on planes. And, the athlete proved this point with an intriguing update on her social media, briefly explaining her ordeal. However, she is an independent person, and brought just the solution to her problem, also making an interesting confession.

Portraying a glimpse of her troubles, Biles shared an image of herself in a car, clutching a packet of Sport Temp hand warmers. The caption of the Instagram story read, “I’m the psycho that brings hand warmers on the plane… because I can’t stand being cold.” The 26-year-old gymnast’s naive confession appeared to be hilarious. She deemed her habit of carrying hand warmers on flights as insane, given her threshold for cold temperatures. Previously too Biles had admitted her reluctance to the cold, owing to a fan’s “ask me anything” query on Instagram.

The fan was curious about Biles’s presence at Packers games in the future. To which she replied, “Green Bay is tough bc there are no direct flights for us. I?m also afraid of the open dome / cold weather.??While she loves to support her husband’s team, trivial obstructions like fewer flights and extreme weather conditions largely affect her physical presence for the matches.

Yet, Biles’ innocent humor captivates the fans’ hearts. They look forward to more endearing moments that Biles shares, especially during her travels. This playful story reminds the community of previous flight adventures where Biles’ cute and playful personality shone.
