Simone Biles, the gymnastics icon, has recently disclosed that she may not be seen at her husband Jonathan Owens’ NFL games as frequently this season. Fresh off her spectacular performance at the Paris Olympics, where she secured three gold medals and one silver, Biles is now facing a packed schedule that may keep her away from the football sidelines.

Biles, 27, has long been a supportive figure at Owens’ games, but things are set to change this year. The couple, who tied the knot in 2023, has become a beloved pair in the world of sports. However, Biles’ recent announcement on TikTok suggests that her presence at Owens’ games will be limited due to her commitment to the Gold Over America Tour, a nationwide event celebrating gymnastics. The tour, which features Biles alongside fellow gold medalists like Jade Carey and Jordan Chiles, will span 32 cities, kicking off in Oceanside, California, and wrapping up in Detroit on November 3rd—right in the midst of the NFL season.

This revelation follows a recent incident that grabbed headlines during a Chicago Bears preseason game at Soldier Field. Biles attended the game to support Owens, who plays safety for the Bears, but her choice of attire sparked controversy. She donned a custom jacket adorned with black and white images of Owens—only the images depicted him in his former Green Bay Packers uniform. The jacket also featured a prominent Green Bay logo, a blunder considering the intense rivalry between the Bears and the Packers. The fashion faux pas did not go unnoticed by NFL fans, some of whom harshly criticized Biles, with one even joking that she should be stripped of her Olympic medals for the mistake.

Despite the uproar, Owens, who played just one season with the Packers before joining the Bears, took the incident in stride, though it certainly added an awkward note to the couple’s public appearances. As Biles prepares to embark on her tour, inspiring young gymnasts across the country, Owens will continue his battle on the football field—often without his wife’s support from the stands.

Biles’ candidness about her busy schedule and the recent wardrobe mishap serves as a reminder that even Olympic champions can face everyday challenges and missteps. As both Biles and Owens continue to excel in their respective sports, fans will undoubtedly be watching to see how this power couple navigates the upcoming season.
