Simone Biles accomplished the unthinkable at the 2023 US Gymnastics Championship. The Olympian rewrote history by breaking 90-year-old Alfred Jochim’s record. By clinching the victory, the 4X Olympic gold medalist became the sole gymnast to secure 8 all-around champion titles. Though her fandom cheered her from the stands, unfortunately, her NFL safety husband missed witnessing this remarkable feat in person due to their geographical separation.

The newlyweds found themselves apart shortly after their wedding due to Jonathan Owens’ commitment to the Green Bay Packers and Biles’ return to gymnastics. With their careers placing them in different states, Owens also couldn’t attend the US Core Hydration Classics earlier this month, prioritizing the NFL season.

What Rules Forced Owens to Miss Simone Biles

In July, Simone Biles turned to her Instagram stories for an interactive session. During the Q&A session, a curious fan asked, “Is Jonathan able to come to your meets even with NFL training?” Biles candidly responded, revealing, “No. If he misses training he’ll either be cut or fined; NFL fines the boys for everything”.
