On April 22, 2023, gymnastics legendSimone Biles married professional football player Jonathan Owens.
The papers all but touted the pair as the athletic power couple of the decade.
The dynamic duo said “I do” in a romantic destination wedding in Cabo, Mexico.
The leg slit was very crucial.
It was to add, in my head, more length to my body.
Despite Biles' princess bride energy, not everybody has supported her marriage.
In their view, Biles and Owens' marriage is full of red flags.
“I didn’t know who she was.
I just hadn’t heard of her,” the NFL player revealed.
At that point in time, Biles was an experienced Olympian who had earned multiple medals for Team USA.
Her contribution was considered key to helping Team USA bring home the all-around gold.
To be clear, there was nothing inherently wrong with Owens not knowing a lot about Biles.
However, his ignorance was a strange thing to bring up in an interview.
In reality, though, Biles was a household name whether Owens knew who she was or not.
Luckily for the NFL player, though, Biles didn’t mind his words.
Owens said that his lack of info was “one of the things she liked.”
However, it wasn’t Owens who instantly recognized that he had matched with the woman of his dreams.
Actually, the NFL player initially shrugged off the match.
So, I’m like, ‘Oh okay.
I’mma see what’s up.’
The likes in question were from Biles.
But, rather than message her, Owens took a shower.
Undeterred, Biles slid into Owens' DMs.
From there, they started chatting, and things took off.
Owens said, “If she wouldn’t have messaged me, chances were, I probably wouldn’t …
Immediately after Owens made this commend, Crowder rushed to put the NFL player in his place.
“This man’s [Owens] a hell of a safety.
I’m like, ‘Ah man.
This is my third year [playing professional football].
This is kind of early.'”
Because of this attitude, Owens put very little effort into his first date with Biles.
Instead, he left Biles with the burden of traveling to go see him.
“We couldn’t do much as Covid happened, and everything shut down.
So, she came through down to Houston.
She lived in the suburbs so she had to drive about 45 minutes to me,” Owens revealed.
Biles said “yes,” and the two announced their engagement in an adorableInstagrampost.
Unfortunately, though, these good times got tough and fast.
The couple struggled to plan their wedding, leading Biles to feel overwhelmed at times.
Luckily, she was able to hire a wedding planner to keep things on track.
“Carena Trampe of Amy Abbott Events kept me sane the entire time,” Biles said.
Of course, Biles and Owens are hardly the first couple to ever struggle with wedding planning anxiety.
This, in turn, can put pressure on a new marriage.
“Wedding planning stress can also place some serious strains on a new relationship,” DeFife wrote.
Another added, “He’s just beyond full of himself.”
in a post shared toX.
As the couple would quickly discover, though, the answer to that question was “no.”
EntireRedditthreads were dedicated to dissecting the machismo behind Owens' words, andInstagramusers tore him apart.
… And then, like, one night I broke down.
And I’m like, ‘Why are you guys talking about my husband like this?
Like, you don’t know him.
You don’t know who he is.
But, it keeps coming up every time,” Biles revealed.
Of course, the Olympic medalist is confident that her sport is the more challenging one.
Biles went on to say that she had evidence on her side.
“He has done my workout in the gym, and he could barely do it.
And, then I went to their NFL workout, and I crushed it,” she explained.
As the comedian had already told Biles earlier in the interview, “I knowyourname.
That’s all I’m going to say.
You know what I’m saying?
Whoever made it to the top would win.
Her legs are straight out, like, at 90 [degrees].”
Unfortunately, this seems unlikely, as one in every eight British men are not tennis world champions.
Interestingly, Biles had to help Owens understand that he was not necessarily as gifted as he believed.
“He could do everything, and that cracked me up about him.
So I couldn’t wait to meet him so I could be like, ‘You’re not funny.
You’re not a good cook,'” she revealed in the same interview.
Although Owens may not have originally been the best chef, Biles’ teasing might have helped him improve.
Newsthat he likes to make her dinner meaning that his culinary skills are at least passable.
“Jonathan cooks either like salmon, chicken.
“Congrats baby on becoming the most decorated American gymnast in Olympic history,” he wrote.
Apparently, thousands agreed.
The jacket was made during Owens’ time playing for the Green Bay Packers.
However, by 2024, he was playing for the Chicago Bears.
In other words, Biles showed up at one of Owens' games wearing a rival team’s jacket.
Simone Biles should be stripped of all her medals after wearing Packers gear while cheering for the Bears.
However, body language experts have largely discarded this theory.
