Simone Biles took to Instagram to express heartfelt birthday wishes to her husband, NFL player Jonathan Owens, despite being miles apart due to her preparations for the upcoming Paris Olympics. “Happy happy birthday to my husband, best friend, confidant and party goer ❤️,” Biles posted, highlighting her affection and anticipation for the year ahead with Owens.
Currently staying in the Olympic Village, Biles is gearing up for the games, though she wishes she could celebrate directly with Owens and shared a loving note: “Wish I was there to celebrate you, but I’ll see you soon!!! XO.”
In an impressive display of support, the Chicago Bears, Owens’ current team, are permitting him to travel to France to witness Biles compete, even though it conflicts with their training camp schedule. The couple was married earlier in April 2023, and Biles is thankful for the Bears’ support, appreciating all the encouragement Owens has given her through their years together.
As Paris prepares for the Olympic Games, Biles is set to aim for her fifth gold medal in what will be her third Olympic appearance, following her withdrawal from the 2020 Tokyo games due to health concerns.
