Simone Biles fired off a one-word response on Instagram to the backlash her husband, Green Bay Packers safety Jonathan Owens, has been receiving.
Biles posted a pick of her and Owens posing together and fixing their mouths as if to show off grills – despite neither one wearing one – which she captioned ‘mood.’
Owens and Biles joined ‘The Pivot’ podcast where the safety not only admitted that he ‘didn’t know who [Biles] was’ when the couple started dating but also claimed that he was the ‘catch’ in their marriage.
The 28-year-old’s comments came after co-host Channing Crowder asked, ‘How in the hell did you pull Simone Biles,’ to which the five-year veteran responded, ‘It’s really how she pulled me.’
Some of Biles’ fans even took to social media to proclaim that Owens should take notes from the way Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce speaks about his girlfriend Taylor Swift.

Her Instagram post suggests that Biles is clearly standing by her man despite the backlash fans have created.
The Olympic legend also seemed to support Owens’ comments during the podcast appearance as well.
‘I know what I like, and I know what I want,’ the four-time Olympic gold medalist Biles said. ‘Period.’
The couple started dating in 2020 after meeting on the dating app Raya while Owens was still a member of the Houston Texans practice squad.
They became engaged in 2022 and tied the knot this past spring in Mexico.
Throughout his first season in Green Bay, Owens has recorded 67 tackles and a fumble recovery despite often being picked on by opposing teams in pass coverage.
Owens and the 6-8 Packers are currently preparing for a Christmas Eve matchup against the Carolina Panthers.
