Simone Biles, the most decorated American gymnast in history, recently found herself in the spotlight for a reason beyond her Olympic achievements. This time, it was her fierce defense of her husband, NFL player Jonathan Owens, who faced harsh criticism on social media after wearing Biles’ Olympic gold medal in a celebratory post.
FULL VIDEO:
The controversy erupted shortly after Biles led Team USA to a gold medal victory in the all-around team event at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Owens, proud of his wife’s historic accomplishment, posted a photo on Instagram with his arm around Biles and her gold medal draped around his neck. While the post was intended to celebrate Biles’ success, it quickly attracted negative attention, with some users questioning Owens’ choice to wear the medal.
Critics online were quick to voice their disapproval, with some calling it an odd and inappropriate gesture. A content creator even took to TikTok, amassing millions of views, to express disbelief over Owens’ actions, questioning why he would wear a medal he didn’t win. The criticism also brought up a past interview from 2023, where Owens admitted he didn’t know who Biles was when they first met on a dating app, further fueling the backlash.
However, Biles did not remain silent. She took to the comments section to hit back at those criticizing her husband, branding them as “effing miserable” and imploring them to leave her family alone. Biles revealed that she often allows her family members to wear her medals and urged people not to make assumptions about their relationship. Her defense highlighted the deep bond and mutual respect between the couple.
This is not the first time Owens has faced scrutiny in connection with Biles. His earlier comments about not knowing who she was when they first met, as well as a remark he made about men being the “catch” in relationships, had previously drawn criticism. Despite these challenges, Biles and Owens have shown that their relationship is built on strong support and shared values, particularly in navigating the demands of their respective sports careers.
Biles and Owens tied the knot in April 2023, and their relationship has been characterized by mutual encouragement and motivation. Owens has frequently expressed his admiration for Biles’ commitment to her craft, stating that her work ethic inspires him in his own athletic pursuits. Similarly, Biles has spoken about how Owens’ support helps her push through the rigors of gymnastics.
In the face of criticism, Biles has made it clear that while she can handle being in the public eye, she will not tolerate attacks on her husband or their relationship. She recently addressed the ongoing backlash on Instagram, warning that she would block anyone who continued to disrespect her family.
As Biles continues to make history in gymnastics, with three gold medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics bringing her total to 10, her unwavering support for Owens serves as a reminder that their bond extends beyond the spotlight. Despite their different career paths, the couple remains united in their commitment to each other, proving that their relationship is built on a foundation of love, respect, and mutual encouragement.
