Returning to her beloved state means a long-distance relationship for gymnastics legend Simone Biles. As they say, everything worthwhile comes with a price, and for the gymnast, it is staying away from her husband, Jonathan Owens. Just days after getting married in May, the celebrity athletes embarked on a tough journey after Jonathan signed a $1.01 million contract with the Green Bay Packers. With Owens relocating to Wisconsin for practice at their home base, Biles too announced her comeback for US Classics.

After being away for thirty days for work commitments, Biles and Owens were overjoyed to finally reunite. Although Owens couldn’t make it to her big day in Chicago, Simone flew to Ohio to cheer for him. Her presence for Owens felt louder than the ones in the stands, but now back to practice, Simone penned an emotional message for Beau.
