"Jonathan Owens is so cute" - Simone Biles gushes over husband while talking about spotting him during his matches
11-time Olympic medalist Simone Biles recently expressed her admiration for her husband Jonathan Owens as she joined American musical icon Snoop Dogg for a conversation. The gymnast joined forces with the rapper to mentor his team on the singing reality show The Voice for the playoffs.
Fresh off wrapping up her 2024 season with the final Gold Over America Tour performance in Detroit earlier this month, Biles was invited by the hip-hop icon on the show to guide his team, Snoop, during the playoffs. Opening up about their association, Biles highlighted their seamless ability to complement each other's styles to offer valuable guidance to the artists.
"We were able to riff off each other and give the artists the best insight going into the next round. It was pretty easy, simple. We’re both very mellow. But if we need to bring that energy up, then we can. For us, it was about instilling confidence going into the next week," Biles said (via The Associated Press)."
While on the show, the duo sat down for an exclusive interview with Entertainment Tonight, where Simone Biles spoke about her collaboration with the legendary rapper and also heartfelt admiration for her husband, Jonathan Owens, the Chicago Bears safety, during the chat.
"I'm a little confused about football skills; I'm like, Where is he? and then I'm like, Oh, there he is; he is so cute." She said [1:12 onwards]
When asked what advice she would give to the contestants, Biles responded:
"It's more about the hardships, the challenges, the anxiety, depression about telling a story but by only staying true to your authentic self."
