Two years ago, in a simple yet elegant white dress with soft, tiered ruffles, Simone Biles said the words that changed everything: “I do 🤍 officially owens 🤍.” It was a civil ceremony, intimate and sweet, marking the official start of her marriage to NFL star Jonathan Owens. But just a few weeks later, they took their vows again—this time under the golden sun of Cabo San Lucas, surrounded by friends, family, and the ocean breeze. It was May 6, 2023, and their love story had just turned a new page. And now, the world’s greatest gymnast and her husband aren’t just celebrating milestones—they’re living them.

Though a few days had passed since their second anniversary, Simone and Jonathan had a little surprise left to share. In a video posted to her story on May 23, the couple was seen surrounded by recently unboxed items. The mood was cozy, the moment tender. The caption read simply: “trying on our 2 year anniversary gifts.” Simone was seen gently helping Owens fasten a bracelet onto his wrist. No fancy lighting, no dramatic music—just the kind of simple, loving gesture that speaks volumes. 

While Simone didn’t show off any grand anniversary gift for herself, one of her Instagram stories offered a sweet and subtle clue. A stunning floral arrangement sat in a delicate vase tied with a sheer ribbon, bursting with vibrant roses, chrysanthemums, and textured blooms. The soft hues and elegant styling spoke volumes. And the caption? A simple yet heartfelt, “ily @jowens.”

But then, just as we were basking in the romance, Simone switched gears and gave fans a peek into something equally breathtaking: her home, which is estimated to cost over $3 million. More specifically, her powder room. And yes, she made it clear—this wasn’t just any powder room. It was the powder room.

In one of her stories, Simone posted a snapshot of the space, captioning it: “You can’t tell me this isn’t the perfect powder room.” And perfect might actually be an understatement. The sink was a sleek, rectangular black lava stone vessel, sat atop a white countertop with elegant marble veining, all supported by a deep blue or charcoal vanity base that gave the space a modern, moody edge. It was the kind of setup that looked straight out of an interior design magazine. But Simone wasn’t done.

In the lower corner of the photo, she teased: “But click to see my favorite part.” Naturally, we clicked. And boom—there it was. In the next story, Simone revealed the pièce de résistance: a black, floor-mounted, one-piece Western commode. It was stylish, sleek, and unapologetically different. Simone’s caption? “IM OBSSSSSSSSEDDDDD.” And with a second flourish: “The black toilet is everything.” Yes, you heard that right. Leave it to Simone Biles to make a toilet feel like a luxury feature. And somehow, it works.

The day when Simone Biles became Mrs. Owens 

It all began back in March 2020, in the stillness of the pandemic, when the world had slowed, but fate hadn’t. On the dating app Raya, the most decorated gymnast in American history matched with NFL safety Jonathan Owens. A few exchanged messages quickly turned into hours-long FaceTime calls. What started as a digital connection quietly bloomed into something real, grounded, and fast forward three years, the pair were ready to take their love to the next level.

On April 14, 2023, Simone gave fans a gentle hint that something magical was around the corner. She posted a photo of herself and Jonathan, beaming as they held their marriage license. The caption read simply, “Almost time to say ‘I do.’” Just eight days later, on April 22, the couple made it official in a low-key courthouse ceremony—a quiet, meaningful moment that sealed their bond. 

Then on May 6, they took their vows again, as we mentioned before. It was a dreamy destination wedding filled with elegance, laughter, and sun-drenched joy. Every detail radiated love and intention.
