Whatever they’re to the world, the duo isn’t the same behind closed doors. The primary topic of debate at home being, “who do you think is the better athlete?” 

Coming to Jonathan Owens, he has had a prolific NFL season in 2023. And his wife had a stellar comeback in 2023, starting at the US National Championships. Currently standing with 35 medals across Worlds and Olympics, her fans would vouch that her sport demands more dexterity than any other.
