They have been one of the most popular and famous sporting couples in the world and regularly receive huge support from fans on their social media handles.

Simone Biles and Jonathan Ownes got married on April 22, 2023, in an intimate wedding ceremony with close family and friends in Texas.

"This is your sign to marry your best friend. Happy 1st anniversary. I’m excited for many more to come. I wish I could marry you a million times more! I love you so much!," she captioned the image.

Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens had a close meeting when the former was invited to a home football game. It wasn't until March 2020 that they had a formal conversation when they met on the dating app, Raya.

After having initial conversations for over two weeks, the couple decided to meet. Biles, despite being a very well-known athlete worldwide, Owens wasn't aware of her. This created a huge controversy in the gymnastics world months later when Jonathan Owens revealed this in a podcast.

It was during the COVID-19 lockdown that they got to know each other better. They made their relationship 'Instagram Official' by sharing it with their fans on the social media handle in August 2020.

Ever since then, they have celebrated important moments of their life together. Owens stood as a solid support for Biles after she withdrew from the Tokyo Olympics citing mental health concerns. The American gymnast revealed that it was due to his support as well as her family's backing that she could recover from the setback.
