The months of 2023 have passed by in the blink of an eye. And soon we’ll hear those jingle bells ring. For Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens, this year has been a roller coaster ride going up. It feels like forever, but the two tied the knot earlier this year in May. Jonathan Owens also signed with the Green Bay Packers that same month, setting his sights on The Vince Lombardi Trophy. In August, Biles returned to the gymnastics floor after a two-year hiatus.

And now, with just two months left in the year, Biles is “the most decorated gymnast ever.”  Months ago, Simone posted a picture of herself and Owens snuggled up on a patio, gleaming with love and the summer glow. Now, in October, after six long weeks of being apart, the couple has reunited, and all their hard work is paying off as they gear up for their favorite season of autumn recreating the picture – with a heartwarming update.

In a recent Instagram story, Jonathan Owens shared a heartwarming update. He posted a picture of his wife, in a cozy orange sweatshirt, her classic “OWENS” necklace adorning her neck, while he wore a white shirt with a diamond link chain. The two were snuggled up on a couch, their glowing smiles showing off their dimples as they took a selfie. No caption was needed, as their smiles radiated all the joy after rekindling their romance after nearly six weeks.

Fans are excited to see the two finally getting some time together after going through the motions of long-distance multiple times this year. This story update comes just a day after Owens gifted Biles a bouquet adorned with fall vibes, featuring a beautiful mix of different flowers in hues of orange, burgundy, and lavender. Before Owens could upload the story, he also reposted his wife’s Instagram post, which warmed hearts.

How the stars aligned

In his previous story, Owens shared a post by Biles featuring a carousel of images capturing her epic moments at the 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships. She shared images of her tearing up on the podium, on the floor exercise, and with her coaches. In the post, she wrote, “doing it for the little girl who fell in love with the sport!!!!!” making history in gymnastics once more. Biles had nothing to prove after already having seven Olympic medals to her name, yet she went back and, with sheer dominance, made history.

She earned the seventh consecutive World title with Team USA, her sixth World All-Around Title, a gold on uneven bars, and her sixth World Title on floor exercise. It is heartwarming to see her back with her NFL husband, who is also on a break during the NFL’s bye week. The bye week is a time for NFL teams to scout themselves, hit the reset button, gain insights, and develop ideas on how to proceed with the rest of the season.
