Chaos in casa paradise

Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens have been building their dream home in Houston ever since the lovebirds were engaged. Fans of the couple have also eagerly joined in on the journey of “Home Build,” right from the lot clearing day, foundation pouring, and construction of the framework to the dry walls being installed. But in the latest update by the gymnastics GOAT during a “trim walk,” she was left in distress. She revealed that what was anticipated to be a brief “30-minute thing” turned into an extensive 6-hour stay on the property.
