Simone Biles supports husband Jonathan Owens at NFL playoffs after his controversial ‘catch’ comments: ‘I’m so proud of you’

Simone Biles continues to support husband Jonathan Owens after the NFL star faced backlash for claiming he was the “catch” in their relationship.

The Olympian took to her Instagram Story on Sunday to wish Owens luck ahead of the Green Bay Packers’ game against the Dallas Cowboys — which the Wisconsin-based team ultimately won.

“LETS GO 34 🤍,” she wrote over a clip of the safety. “I love you so much & Im so proud of you.”

The four-time Olympic gold medalist flew to Dallas to cheer on her partner in person, rocking a black leather jacket with her husband’s jersey number and “Mrs.Owens” bedazzled on the back in green and white crystals.

Biles, 26, paired the custom piece with a simple black shirt, black leggings and heeled booties in the team’s colors.

Prior to kickoff, the gymnast made her way down to the field to wish her man well in person.

The couple, who wed in April 2023, was captured sharing several sweet kisses before Owens, 28, joined his team for warmups.

Biles has stood by the football player’s side despite public outrage over his comments about their relationship.

During an interview on the “Pivot” podcast last month, Owens claimed that he “didn’t know who” Biles was in 2020 when they first matched on Raya, an exclusive dating app.

He also pointed out at the time that Biles was the one who reached out to him first and drove 45 minutes to go see him.

Then when asked whether he believed he was the “catch” in his relationship with Biles — who is the most decorated gymnast of all time — he replied, “I always say that the men are the catch.”

His remarks quickly went viral on social media, with many fans — including some of “The View” co-hosts — calling the NFL player “embarrassing.”

However, Biles and Owens defended their love shortly after by posting photos from their lavish nuptials.

“Unbothered 😂❤️ Just know we locked in over here 🤞🏽,” he captioned one of the pics, to which Biles commented back, “🤞🏾💋 for life.”

Biles also gushed about her husband in her recent Vanity Fair cover story, telling the outlet that marrying the fellow athlete “topped” her time in the Olympics.

“I’ve never had so much fun in my life,” she said of their destination wedding. “I was 19 when I won my first Olympics, and I was like, ‘How am I supposed to top this?’ My wedding topped it. It was the greatest feeling ever.”
