AceShowbiz - Simone Biles didn't let the distance stop her from celebrating her husband Jonathan Owens on his special day. As the football safety turned 29 on Monday, July 22, the artistic gymnast gave a birthday shout-out to her spouse amid preparations for the Paris Olympics.
Making use of Instagram, the 27-year-old shared a series of pictures of her and her man during a photoshoot. "happy happy birthday to my husband, best friend, confidant and party goer. thanks for being the calm to my storm!" she kicked off the caption.
"i love you with all my heart and I can't wait to see what this year brings!" the 27-year-old continued. "let's do it big baby. wish I was there to celebrate you, but I'll see you soon!!! XO @jowens."
The post didn't go unnoticed by Jonathan. Taking to the comments section, he replied, "I love you so much baby. Can't wait to celebrate with you."
Simone and Jonathan first crossed paths in 2020 on the dating app Raya and got married on April 22, 2023. The couple had an intimate ceremony at Harris County Courthouse in Houston and later celebrated with friends and family in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
Last December, Jonathan sparked backlash for referring to himself as "the catch" in their relationship during an interview on "The Pivot Podcast". Some fans took this comment negatively, despite him explaining he was fighting his natural fear of commitment before meeting Simone.
It forced Simone to confront social media critics who have been commenting on her marriage. "Y'all are blatantly being disrespectful to my relationship & my husband. So I'm gonna go ahead & say this one time. Respectfully, f**k off," she fumed in a May Instagram Story.
