Simone Biles isn’t just head over heels for her husband, Jonathan Owens. She’s got a serious love for luxury handbags, too! The gymnastics icon, with a net worth of $25 million, has worked hard to earn her place at the top and isn’t shy about indulging in life’s finer things. However, her love for Hermes bags has sparked some controversy before. Like last year when her Paris shopping spree had fans debating whether it was “too flashy.” This year, Simone is doubling down and unbothered as she showed off her latest luxury purchase on Instagram—a stunning gold Hermes bag that once again got people talking.

And let’s talk about that bag—it’s not just pretty, it’s pricey! Simone dropped $25,500 on the iconic Hermes piece and made it clear she was treating herself. She captioned the post, “Treated myself to a new lil bby while in New York. Jonathan came for emotional support. Baby, I was sweating.” Honestly, who wouldn’t be with a price tag like that? Simone was in NYC for Vtex Connect on January 13th, but her handbag purchase definitely stole the spotlight.

Last year, when fans criticized her Paris haul, she hilariously clapped back, revealing the bag in question was actually a gift from her parents, Ronald and Nellie, to celebrate her Olympic success. Her sassy response? “My parents bought me my Hermès bag 🥰. Don’t be mad at me, be mad at your parents.” Whether she’s treating herself or being spoiled by her family, Simone’s message is clear. She’s worked hard for her success, and she’s going to enjoy every bit of it!
