Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens’ Relationship Timeline
Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens are a match made in world-class athlete heaven. The Olympic gold medalist and the NFL player, who was then a Houston Texans safety, met via the dating app Raya in March 2020. “I didn’t know who she was,” Owens told Texas Monthly in June 2021. “I just hadn’t heard of […]
NFL safety Owens signed with the Packers ahead of the 2023-2024 season. The Wisconsin-based team is set to take on the Kansas City Chiefs at their Lambeau Field at 8:20 p.m. on Sunday. The game is likely to be a snow game given the local weather forecasts for flurries.

“I didn’t know who she was. I just hadn’t heard of her, and when I told her that, that’s one of the things she liked,” Owens told Texas Monthly in June 2021, noting the coronavirus pandemic gave them plenty of quality time to connect without work commitments. “It was one of the few times in her life where everything was just shut off and she couldn’t do anything.

He added at the time: “So we used it to get to know each other — really get to know each other. It created our bond and made it stronger. Now I’m so thankful.”
Owens ultimately proposed in February 2022 after two years of dating. They wed in April before the NFL season commenced. With the Packers’ football schedule underway, Biles made it a point to always cheer on his team whether in person or remotely. She also had gymnastic competitions earlier this year, and they did long-distance to accommodate both busy schedules.
“People think if you’re a wife, you can’t be a professional athlete, you can’t be a gymnast, you can’t do whatever,” she told Olympics.com in October. “And I came to the realization, like, yeah, I can still be a wife and be out there.”
Biles continued: “[I’m] even being intentional outside of the gym, making time for me and my husband, making time for my family, making time for those vacations. … [Before] I was, like, married to gymnastics and now I feel like I’m attached to so many other things and gymnastics is just a part of my day.”
