Jonathan Owens Gives Sweet Cheek Kiss to Simone Biles Ahead of Chicago Bears Home Game
Jonathan Owens kicked off the Sunday, December 22, Chicago Bears football game with his usual pre-kickoff kiss from his wife, Simone Biles.
Biles, 27, met up with Owens, 29, on the sidelines of Chicago’s Soldier Field on Sunday afternoon before the game began where he gave the Olympic gymnast a sweet peck on the cheek.
Biles turned up to watch her husband’s NFL team take on the Detroit Lions in a cozy-chic outfit. She sported a black puffer coat with a matching fuzzy bucket hat from Prada.
For glam, Biles rocked her hair down in braided locs.
The gymnast and Owens have been married since April 2023 and they are frequent supporters of one another’s careers. For Biles, she’s a fixture at Owen’s NFL games, where they often share a kiss before kickoff.
Owens also likes to cheer on Biles at gymnastics meets, even receiving special permission to skip a few days of Bears training camp to watch her in the Paris Olympics this past summer.
“It is not much motivation you need to do, just because you don’t want to put extra, added pressure on anyone,” Owens exclusively told Us Weekly in July. “I just tell her, ‘Go do your thing, baby.’… As long as she’s there, she’s on the field, give her a kiss and we can go about our way.”
He continued at the time, “You get a different type of focus whenever you just have this one person that you’re focusing on. And I ain’t saying there’s something wrong with being single, but for me, knowing myself, I’ve played a lot better since [meeting Simone], I’ve just been focused and locked in, and you come home, talk about my day and play with the dogs, you know what I mean? That’s just kind of, like, our thing.”
Owens has come a long way as he initially did not even recognize Biles when they crossed paths on the dating app Raya in 2020.
“[I] had been on [Raya] for a couple days and then she pops up. I’m like, ‘Lemme see who this is,’” the NFL safety recalled on “The Pivot” podcast in a December 2023 episode. “I never really paid attention to gymnastics, so it piqued my curiosity [and I was like], ‘I’ll see what’s up.’”
When they first met, Owens played for the Houston Texans, which is based nearby to Biles’ gymnastics training facility. After Biles and Owens tied the knot last year, they started building their dream home in the Lone Star State.
“At this point, we’ve waited so long for it to be built, we’ll just wait until after the [NFL] season to move in,” Biles told Us last month. “Right now, they’re doing all of the backyard stuff. Jonathan wanted a half-basketball court, a barbeque pit, all of the good stuff. We did put an in-ground trampoline and a pool.”
Biles continued, “We should be closing fairly soon. I go in two weeks to check on it again to see where we are, but we’re literally almost there.”
