May 6, 2023 — the day Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens said “I do” (again)… and let’s be real, neither of them has forgotten it. And guess what? It’s May 6 again, but two years later! Yep, the Olympic legend and NFL star are officially celebrating their second wedding anniversary today, and their love still has that “just married” sparkle. Just yesterday, the couple made a stylish stop at the Met Gala. But even after the glitz and glam of the red carpet, Owens didn’t let the big day slip by—he made sure to celebrate it properly.

For a little flashback: Biles and Owens tied the knot not once, but twice in 2023. First came the courthouse wedding on April 22 in Houston, Texas. But that was just the beginning. The grand celebration happened on May 6 in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, surrounded by friends, family, sunshine, and all the wedding magic you can dream of. Now, two years later, Owens made sure not to let the day slip by.

He took to Instagram to share an update, reminding everyone just how smitten he still is. And of course, it came with a sweet photo of the couple looking like they just stepped out of a fashion shoot. In the anniversary snap, Simone Biles stole the spotlight in a white, flared mini dress with a bold red floral appliqué on one shoulder—elegant, couture, and her vibe. She paired it with strappy black heels, statement earrings, and that signature glow.

Standing beside her, Owens looked effortlessly polished in a light blue zip-up jacket, white tee, black pants, and monochrome sneakers. His braided hair was cleanly styled, and his smile said it all, especially as he looked down at Simone with pure love. And the caption? Short and sweet: “Happy Anniversary to my queen 🏔️.” Perfect words for a picture-perfect moment. But was it just a single story he uploaded? Of course not!

And just when you thought it couldn’t get any cuter, Owens followed up with another story from the same day, same outfits, just a different pose. This time, the caption tugged even harder at the heartstrings: “Two years strong and a lifetime to go 🤍 Excited to see where life takes us next, baby.” Aww, come on! That’s Hallmark-level sweet. But what about Simone?

Did she post anything on their big day? Surprisingly, not yet. As of now, she hasn’t shared anything on May 6. However, and here’s where it gets interesting—on May 5, she posted something that sparked Jonathan’s early anniversary mood.

Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens find love in the fast lane

So just two days before their anniversary, Simone Biles was doing what she does best—stealing the show, this time at the 2025 Kentucky Derby. She and Jonathan Owens showed up in Louisville looking like absolute royalty. Simone had the honor of giving the iconic “Riders Up” call. She rocked a custom lavender strapless mini dress covered in rhinestones, silver heels, and a matching pastel hat.

Total Derby slay. And of course, Jonathan was right there with her, perfectly coordinated. Honestly, these two don’t miss when it comes to couple style. And now, two days later, Simone Biles posted a sweet pic of them on Instagram from the event, all dressed up and gazing at each other like no one else was around. No caption needed—just three hearts. But Owens? He didn’t waste a second.

He slid into the comments with “Happy anniversary, baby.” Yep, the soft moments hit differently. And sure, it was technically their second anniversary, but it feels like their first—because between busy schedules, they barely had time together that first year. They even had to put off their honeymoon… until this year. What? Yes! Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens have spent most of their marriage long-distance.

Right after their dreamy Cabo wedding in May 2023, Owens signed with the Green Bay Packers and jetted off to Wisconsin, while Simone stayed back in Texas to continue training. So, their honeymoon was cut short. Simone opened up about it, saying, “Right after Cabo, he went to Green Bay and signed, and two days later, he was up there, so it’s been different.” “Different” is putting it lightly! But they made it work.

Simone said they leaned into the little things, adding, “We really cherish those moments and make those memories.” They squeezed in time together when they could—but between NFL and elite gymnastics schedules, it wasn’t easy. Once Simone Biles won three gold medals at the Paris Olympics and made the Gold Over America tour, she tried to spend time with Owens.

Whether Owens was in Chicago for his NFL season, Simone was with him. Even Simone spent Christmas away from her family but with Owens. Even due to their hectic schedules, their honeymoon got pushed back for almost two years. Simone Biles had always dreamed of Bora Bora, but when the time finally came in February 2025, they chose South Africa instead. And let’s just say that it did not disappoint.

From breathtaking safaris to a wild lion encounter that had Simone saying, “I had to stop recording; my heart was beating so fast,” the trip was everything they needed. Owens called it “more beautiful than I could have ever imagined,” and Simone posted, “My heart is so full.” And the best part? The distance is finally over. After two years of juggling time zones, FaceTimes, and “miss you” texts, they’re finally getting that normal couple life they’ve waited for. Honeymoon: check. Same city check. Love still going strong? Absolutely.
