Simone Biles reunites with NFL husband Jonathan Owens following medal controversy at Paris Olympics

Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens have been reunited in the United States following the gymnast’s historic summer in Paris.

Biles made a glorious return to the Olympics, winning three more gold medals – and one silver – to cement her place among Team USA’s greatest ever athletes.

Owens, a safety for the Chicago Bears, took time off from NFL training camp to be in the crowd in Paris to support his wife.

Now, though, both Biles and Owens are back home following the Games and, on Thursday, the gymnast posted a picture of her husband alongside the football player’s English bulldog, Zeus.

Biles was forced to defend Owens earlier this month after he was slammed by fans for wearing her Olympic gold medal.

After the 27-year-old led the USA to victory in the team all-around final – alongside teammates Suni Lee, Jordan Chiles and Jade Carey – Owens was pictured with her medal around his neck.

‘Witnessing history every time you step on the mat – Congrats baby on becoming the most decorated American gymnast in Olympic history!!!! Just wow!!!! 8 of them!!!!! So thankful I was there to see it,’ he wrote on social media at the time.

Owens faced backlash from some quarters, with several fans branding his behavior ‘odd’, while content creator Kiera Breaugh even told him to ‘take it off’ in a video which racked up 2.5 million views on TikTok.

But Biles leapt to her husband’s defense on social media. ‘Crazy thing is, I put my medal on every single one of my family members and took pictures,’ she wrote.

‘So don’t ever make assumptions.’ Biles then added: ‘Y’all are so f****ng miserable. leave us alone’.
