Olympic gymnast Simone Biles, 26, recently married NFL safety Jonathan Owens, 27, in an intimate courthouse ceremony in Houston. The couple, who met on a dating app where Biles made the first move, shared their joyous wedding photos online, revealing Biles’ simple yet elegant $120 dress and $35 shoes.
Despite the couple’s happiness, Simone Biles faced criticism online for her hair, with some users labeling it as “unkempt.” In response, Biles reminded her critics of the challenges of maintaining hair in Houston’s humid climate, stating she was unbothered by the comments.
Beyond her wedding, Simone Biles continues to shine in her athletic career, having made a strong comeback at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Despite her incredible achievements, including multiple gold medals, Biles urged fans to let athletes savor their victories instead of immediately asking what’s next.
Her journey to success has been marked by resilience, from overcoming a d to becoming one of the most decorated gymnasts in history. Biles’ story of perseverance extends beyond the mat, as Simone Biles has also been an advocate for mental health and has spoken out against the abuse scandal that rocked USA Gymnastics.
The newlyweds, who plan to hold a larger destination wedding later, are embracing the support of fans who have celebrated their union and Biles’ unwavering strength in the face of adversity.
