Simone Biles gushes over husband Jonathan Owens as Bears safety celebrates her US Hydration Core Classic win: "My whole heart"
Simone Biles and her husband Jonathan Owens are going all out to celebrate the Olympic gold medalist's US Hydration Core Classic win. Watching from the stands, the Chicago Bears safety was one of Biles' loudest supporters at the game.
Biles, of course, made sure to dote on her husband through social media.
Sharing their snaps from the event, Biles referred to Owens as her 'best supporter' on Instagram.
"My whole heart 🤎🤞🏾 the best supporter, I couldn’t ask for a better husband," Simone Biles wrote.
Owens, however, was penned a heartfelt note after Biles' victory.
"Still in awe of last night 😍 Another one!!!! 🥇 You just never cease to amaze me baby, I love being able to watch you go out there and do your thing. I’m here with you every step of the way, wouldn’t miss it for the world 😌❤️," Owens wrote on his Instagram.
Accompanying his mother-in-law to the venue, Owens was also cheering loudly for Biles during her vault performance. The NFL player quickly stood up from his seat and could be seen mouthing ‘let’s go’ as he pumped his fists.
NBC Olympics, who shared the clip, added:
"Jonathan Owens LOVED Simone Biles’ vault performance. ❤️"
Simone Biles was 'really hurt' over hate directed towards husband Jonathan Owens
While Simone Biles and Owens have seldom shied away from expressing their love, a few fans continued to troll the NFL star. On "The Pivot" podcast, Owens disclosed that he wasn't aware of Biles' identity when they first connected on a dating app, which resulted in backlash from several fans on X.
During an interview with TODAY, Biles revealed that the hate directed at her husband has hurt her.
"That really hurt that they were talking about my husband like that because for me, it's like, talk about me all you want, but don't come for my family. Never," she said.
Biles went on to praise her significant other, adding that he simply 'worships' the ground she walks on.
"So I thought it was hilarious at first and then they hurt my feelings. One night, I broke down and I'm like, 'why are you guys talking about my husband like this? You don't know him, you don't know who he is".
Biles referred to him as the 'sweetest guy' who is willing to do anything to help someone.
