Simone Biles has had an epic journey in gymnastics. What started as a passion at 6 years of age has made her the most decorated gymnast 20 years later. While most of Biles’s past teammates are retired gymnasts themselves, Biles is still at it, proving she is the GOAT of the sport.

Age is just a number for 26-year-old Simone Biles, as she made history by becoming the oldest woman to clinch victory at the U.S. gymnastics championships this year. Yet, despite this, a moment came up where Biles recalled her age in a surprising and nostalgic reunion with her past.

Simone Biles took to Instagram to share a surprising picture that warmed the hearts of her 7.1 million followers. She shared a two picture carousel post with the Final Five Teammates of the 2016 Rio Olympics, Aly Raisman and Laurie Hernandez. Biles wore a chic black dress paired with a crisp white blazer and stylish leather boots, while Raisman opted for a sophisticated brown dress paired with a matching tweed blazer and tan leather boots. Hernandez looked classy in a long black leather skirt, paired with black leather boots and a stylish white halter-neck tank top.

The women looked elegant in their fall attire, posing warmly and beaming beside each other in the pictures. Simone Biles captioned the picture “grown-ish” with an emotional emoji and a white heart emoji. The picture took fans back in time to when Biles was merely 19 years old, and she competed with the final five at her first Olympics in Rio. This heartwarming update also came after Biles surprised her fans with an iconic gymnastics moment on TikTok.

Simone Biles took to TikTok to share a video that made gymnastics fans around the world squeal with joy. She captioned the video rounding up some of the gym girls set to the tune Lovin’ on Me by Jack Harlow. The short clip began with Simone Biles, dressed in a blue satin dress with her gorgeous braids left loose as she blew a kiss at the camera.

After playfully covering the lens, a delightful surprise unfolded as an array of gymnastics stars like Aly RaismanLaurie HernandezMaggie NicholsMadison Kocian, and Kyla Ross appeared, each waving in a heartwarming virtual reunion.

The video and the most recent update of Simone Biles with Aly and Laurie have sent waves of excitement into the gymnastics world upon seeing the gymnastics queens together after years.

Simone Biles, the esteemed Olympic gold medallist and world-renowned gymnast, exemplifies unwavering support for her husband, Jonathan Owens, in a manner that echoes a trend among athlete spouses. Throughout the season, Biles, 26, has been a constant presence at Owens’ games, demonstrating unyielding support. Recently, at Lambeau Field, she sported a distinctive green coat while passionately backing her husband and the Green Bay Packers during their intense match against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Beyond the glitz of championships and accolades, Biles’ journey reveals a heartwarming saga that extends beyond her husband to touch the lives of those closest to him which won millions of hearts.

More recently, Simone Biles expressed support on Instagram for Nico Collins who is  Jonathan Owens a former teammate and friend of Sam Royy. Both Owens and Royy have connections with Nico Collins, who plays for the Houston Texans in the National Football League (NFL). In a breakout game against the Broncos, Houston Texans’ receiver Nico Collins shines with nine catches for 191 yards, setting career highs and highlighting his Pro Bowl-worthy season. As Pro Bowl voting is on Biles shared the post with the caption, “Go vote for my bestie girls man. Jonathan played with him in Texas. Love them!” This voting was for Nico.

The 2023 voting for the Pro Bowl was on which is an annual selection process in the National Football League (NFL) in which fans, peers/players, and coaches select top performers to play in a Pro Bowl game. The rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud came in second place with the most NFL player vote selections after Tua Tagovailoa who was finally voted the winner. But besides all this Simone Biles stood for his Husband’s former teammate which shows true sportsmanship. However, Simone is also among the highest paid atheletes.

Sportico ranked Simone Biles as #9 among highest paid female athletes (she earned $8.5M) while Coco Guff earned $22.7M and this showed that she outwitted the former. Despite being declared the greatest Olympic gymnast ever, Biles’ achievements will continue to propel her net worth estimated at about 16 million dollars by Celebrity Net Worth. Her large following in social media have helped her work with some popular companies like GK Elite, Athleta, MasterClass, and Nulo among others, year after year.

Embracing Athleta in 2021, Biles praised the brand by saying, “I feel like they also support me, not just as an athlete, but just as an individual outside of the gym and the change that I want to create, which is so refreshing. She further added, “Now that I’m older and kind of in the world a little bit more, I see and I know and I learn and I grow from things, so to partner with Athleta, I think they stand for everything that I stand for.”

 

Lil Wayne turned into a fortune teller before the Packers’ tussle with the Chiefs. As the Week 13 showdown still unfolds, the rapper’s predictions are starting to come true. The Green Bay Packers are leading 24-19, but there was one oversight in this foretelling that might turn the tables any moment.

The Kansas City Chiefs were the subject of widespread attention this NFL season owing to the presence of Taylor Swift in the spectator’s box. The 12-time Grammy-winning artist has showed up for most games this season to cheer for Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce. Her attendance at Lambeau Field has sparked speculations about the accuracy of Lil Wayne’s prediction, but the Packers, too, have a lucky charm in Simone Biles cheering from the bleachers.

The Olympic gymnast braved the cold winds of Wisconsin to support her husband, Jonathan Owens. This was a particularly game-changing match for the NFL star as his squad was playing against the Super Bowl Champions. Therefore, he needed an extra dose of luck, and Simone Biles could not resist the temptation to support him. Nevertheless, while performing her act of love, Biles also found a new fan. NBC Sports tweeted a picture of Lil Wayne with a caption reading, “We know who Lil Wayne is rooting for tonight”. The answer to the retrospective question for the uninformed was in the photo where Lil Wayne’s tweet of “GO PACK GO!!!!!!” was clearly visible.

Lil Wayne is a Packers superfan and has even composed the theme song for the squad. The sensational musician has the capacity to hype up an entire arena just as he did at the VMAs in 2023. His electrifying “A Milli” performance even forced Taylor Swift from his NFL rival camp to dance along to the music. However, this was not enough to win him over as Lil Wayne never withdrew his support from the Packers. As he celebrated the results of Sunday’s match, Taylor Swift left Lambeau Field with a frown.

The “Cruel Summer” singer has revelled in the wild jubilation that her appearance during every Chiefs game brought to the fans. The fans saw her as a lucky charm and believed her presence guaranteed a victory for the team. She has also been instrumental in increasing the revenue for the Chiefs, as the Travis Kelce jersey is now selling like hot cake. However, after the Chiefs lost Sunday’s match against the Packers despite her attendance, Taylor Swift’s lucky charm role is in jeopardy.

 

The consistency of Coco Gauff was finally rewarded this year. The 19-year-old won the US Open in front of her home crowd. Indeed, it was a moment to cherish for her after achieving the biggest victory of her tennis career. She has been consistent with her performances for quite a few years now. Additionally, she is one of the top players in the women’s circuit currently. Owing to her brilliant performances, Gauff has been rewarded with a major achievement.

Not only is Gauff popular on the court but off the court too. She has many top-tier sponsorship deals from which she earns a hefty sum. As a result, she has left some top athletes behind.

Minutes ago, it was announced that the 19-year-old American sensation has become the world’s highest-paid women athlete. Gauff earned $22,700,000 from prize money and endorsements, making her top the chart. Fellow tennis player, Iga Swiatek, was a close second with $21.9 M in earnings.

Minutes ago, it was announced that the 19-year-old American sensation has become the world’s highest-paid women athlete. Gauff earned $22,700,000 from prize money and endorsements, making her top the chart. Fellow tennis player, Iga Swiatek, was a close second with $21.9 M in earnings.

Gauff has been successful not only in singles but also in doubles. She has partnered with her compatriot, Jessica Pegula, and the two have had consistent performances throughout the year. It has helped Gauff earn $6.7 Million in prize money and the remaining amount, she has earned in endorsements.

Despite the raging success, Coco Gauff has remained down to earth. Following her massive US Open victory, she heaped special praise on her parents without whom she wouldn’t have played tennis and reached these heights.

The 19-year-old won her first Grand Slam title at the 2023 US Open. Subsequently, she revealed how her parents had a special role to play in her success.

Talking about this, she said, “Yeah, so my dad is the reason why I started playing tennis. And he still gives me tips every now and then, pretty much all the time. And my mom, she kind of helped me on my journey.”

Indeed, it is one complete family as Gauff’s parents have been the backbone of her success. The American sensation will look to reach new highs as she aims to enter the 2024 season with a bang.

The cold winds of Wisconsin blowing past Lambeau Field quickly warmed up from the intense energy radiating out of the bleachers. The fans were clamoring at their lung capacity as the Packers trumped up a stupendous challenge for the Chiefs. The Super Bowl Champions were dumbfounded by the unexpected ferocity of the Packers until they noticed the gymnastic G.O.A.T Simone Biles in the rival camp.

Simone Biles traveled to Wisconsin to support her husband, Jonathan Owens, in this major game. Nevertheless, she had not expected to sideline him as one Packers fan turned the tables, passionately cheering for her.

The legendary gymnast was walking down the field near the spectators’ stand when a fan accosted her. Their hilarious interaction was caught on camera and uploaded to the Sunday Night Football on NBC X page with the caption, “An incredible surprise for Simone Biles from this Packers fan!”. At the start of this funny exchange, Simone Biles kept a straight face as a man dressed as a frozen cube of cheese greeted her. The fan said, “WHAT A PLEASURE TO MEET YOU. YOU ARE THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME. I HAD TO MAKE YOU SOMETHING, OKAY?”

Thereafter, he pulled out a goat hat, which immediately caused Biles to break out in wild laughter. Simone Biles graciously accepted the gift, all the while smiling and uttering “OH MY GOD” under her breath. She thanked the fan and put the goat figurine on her head. The hat did not fit her as she was wearing a thick jacket with a hoodie around her head. Biles held the hat by the goat’s limbs and turned to pose for the camera. However, the excitement was far from over.

The Packers have been on a roll recently and have earned their fans’ respect. With six victories, they are the third-best team in the NFC North. A major chunk of their score can be attributed to the impressive play from Jonathan Ownes. Even during the game against the Kansas City Chiefs, Jonathan Owens helped his squad gather a lead. The game now stands at 24 – 19 in favor of the Green Bay Packers.

Therefore, the fan who gifted Simone the GOAT hat could not ignore Jonathan Owens’ contributions and gifted her another hat. This was for the NFL player and was designed in his likeness. “We can’t let your husband out of the picture”, said the fan while handing over the hat to Simone. Their interaction added another layer of excitement to the much-anticipated game.

It’s the holiday season and Simone Biles has returned to her beloved ones. An added celebratory bling was courtesy of Simone’s elder brother Ron Biles and his wife Sammi Biles’ daughter Ronni Biles celebrating her first birthday. Taking the celebrations to social media the glimpse of family reunion coloured the room happy until now.

Just hours after the birthday handouts, Baby Biles’s father Ron was taken to the hospital. From a recent update, a clear picture of the whereabouts and support came to notice.
Back when Biles was busy earning five medals at Worlds this year, a trail of upsetting health updates marred the Biles family. And after celebrating Ronni’s birthday on the 25th, today Sammi shared an Instagram story of Ron lying on the hospital bed. She captioned it, “LYSM” with a joining hands emoji.
Previously, Ron was hospitalized for a crucial surgery in the early days of this year. His body suffers from avascular necrosis, which weakens some parts of his femur bone. His left hip needed to be replaced entirely, while his right hip required extensive damage and substantial surgery. While Ron is no stranger to a nagging hip problem; he had already had a hip replacement.

In her earlier post, Sammi also highlighted the difficulties of life, admitting that things haven’t gone her way. She poignantly discussed her difficulties becoming pregnant through IVF, emphasizing how exhausting these procedures can be. However, the Biles family continues to come out of difficulties with much strength and celebrate the greater joys in life.

Baby Biles’s first birthday highlight

What’s better than a birthday party? An after-party for the adults which followed the birthday of the adorable Baby Biles. After the wrap, Sammi shared the party details in a gratitude-filled post where she thanked everyone for helping to make the celebration a success.

She acknowledged Blue Mixer Bakery for the gorgeous birthday cake and cupcakes, She Can Bake for the adorable cookies, and Simone for the delectable buffet.

The grandparents were also on the duty to graciously welcome the visitors. Baby Biles arrived shortly before the joyous month of Christmas and quickly made space in everyone’s heart while becoming her aunt TT’s favorite!

On Saturday, November 25, the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Michigan Wolverines clashed in an epic showdown. The night culminated in a 30-24 defeat for the Ohio State Buckeyes, allowing the Wolverines to advance to the Big Ten championship. The game was a thrilling spectacle for football fans in both states.

However, one football fan was left upset, and that was none other than gymnastics queen Simone Biles. Biles, a fan of the Buckeyes, didn’t shy away from expressing this upset. Interestingly, her expression ended up sparking a wave of discontent among football fans, upsetting the gymnastics queen.

Simone Biles is a true Texan at heart, calling Houston her home. However, the gymnastics queen was born in Columbus, Ohio, and has remained true to her roots. Hence, the recent loss of the Ohio State Buckeyes left the gymnastics queen visibly upset.

After the Buckeyes’ defeat to the Wolverines, Biles took to Instagram threads, candidly expressing, “I need Ohio State to win to shut up all the annoying *ichigan fans….” However, her comment was construed as somewhat harsh, sparking discontent among football fans, who began to express their discontent with her post.

Simone Biles’ post showcasing her support for her favorite football team stirred up a tidal wave of comments, revealing a range of emotions from angry and upset fans. One disgruntled fan expressed their upset with Biles while also poking fun at the Ohio State coach, saying, “Disappointed in your attitude. Go blue! Ryan(last) Day”. Another football fan and Simone Biles fan commented, “I’m a HUGE fan of yours. And a *ichigan Alumni. The Two can co-exist”. “Sorry Simone, we be talking another year, you love it and you know it!” said another.

Another dissenting voice chimed in with “Everyone’s entitled to their opinion, even if it’s wrong”. And “People Are allowed to choose their teams but did not expect this from the Simone Biles” said another.

While another person commented, “Lol gotta disagree with you,” adding a goat emoji, acknowledging Biles as the greatest of all time. However, not all comments were lighthearted, as one person, visibly upset with Biles, shared, “When you go from hero to zero”.

Although Simone Biles is a beloved gymnast, her support for her favorite team landed her on the wrong side of many football fans. The No. 2 Michigan Wolverines are set to face the No. 18 Iowa Hawkeyes on December 2, 2023, in the Big Ten Championship Game. Meanwhile, the fate of the Ohio State Buckeyes remains uncertain as they await to discover their destination for the upcoming bowl season.

The Thanksgiving holiday saw some extra cheer coming from Olympic gymnast Simone Biles this year. The 26-year-old was enraptured by her husband Johnathan Owens playing against NFC North-leading Detroit Lions. Following the win Simone stood like a rock for Owens whom she married in April after two years of dating. The beloved couple have endured much backlash owing to their professional careers previously.

And after four straight losses, the Green Bay Packers won its game thanks to Owens’s first NFL touchdown. Later, in the holiday spirit fans and Simone joined to celebrate this victory.

The Owens just promoted themselves from the backseat to the front in the NFL power couple talks. On Thanksgiving day, Simone shared a tweet on X: “A PACKERS WIN BABY!!!!!!!!! happy thanksgiving.” This felt like a personal win for the pair who have pulled their socks, worked while showing resilience, and eventually made their strong comeback in their sports this year.

Lions entered the game with 8-2 heading this season while they were held back in surprise when the Packers debutant took the game to a 20-6 lead. Jonathan did so by seizing the ball after linebacker Rashan Gary forced a fumble on Lions quarterback Jared Goff and carried it back to the 27-yard touchdown.

Flying to Wisconsin was just not enough, wife Simone took to her social media to share her happiness on his win. After the NFL shared Owens’s first touchdown clip on Twitter(X), the seven-time Olympic medalist reshared the same with the caption, “THATS MY HUSBAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY MANS MY MANS MY MANSSSSS.

Simone’s tweet received much love from the community, someone handed him the impactful player compliment saying, “Jonathon MVP really!” Another one wrote, “Congrats on the family win.” A close observer said, “He led in tackles, had a tackle for loss, and was aware and scored a touchdown on a recovery.”

One even praised along with the win details, “Quite the performance. Did I hear right, 12 tackles too? WooHoo!” Wishes to the lady also followed as someone wrote, “Happy Thanksgiving, Simone! Your man balled out today!” Finally, he was monitored to be the “second most impactful player of the game,” one confirmed.

As Thanksgiving is underway, the holiday season has officially begun. The joy and gratitude remind us of the significance of spending precious moments with our loved ones and family. However, for Jonathan Owens, the NFL husband of gymnastics queen Simone Biles, this wasn’t the case in his earlier years.

Opening up about his difficult childhood in a recent update, the Green Bay Packers safety made a noble gesture amid the Thanksgiving festivities.
In Jonathan Owens’ most recent Instagram update, he was seen at the Boys and Girls Club in Green Bay. The video captured the rugged NFL hunk’s soft side as he cuddled a little baby, signed autographs, posed and interacted with fans, and even gave away turkeys to families. He shared in his video, “It was a pretty big thing for me to come here and just give back to the families because I was once a Boys and Girls Club kid, so I just know how important it is, you know, to come in and give back, especially during the holidays.”
The Boys and Girls Club Foundation has helped countless children. It is a national nonprofit organization that provides a safe environment for young people to develop and also provides after-school programs for youth to learn and grow. What also stood out in the video was J. Owens’ revelation of a difficult past, as he shared, “It’s always important to me to give back because I wasn’t one of the most fortunate kids growing up either”. He was one of those downtrodden kids in his childhood.
In 2022, Owens, a native of St. Louis, Missouri, held the first turkey giveaway, bringing holiday joy to countless families. He also took to Instagram and shared a glimpse of the successful and noble event organized by his foundation. Reflecting on his past struggles, he wrote in his caption, “It was a blessing to be able to help families in need and put smiles on their faces. I wasn’t able to be with my mom for the holidays, so it really meant a lot to me to be able to create lasting memories for them and give back.”
Simone Biles, who was his fiancé then,was proud of her man and expressed in the comments, “The sweetest guy in town.” Last year, Jonathan Owens made a promise that he would continue this holiday goodwill in the future.

The elite gymnasts of the US Team and Olympic gold medalists Simone Biles and Sunisa Lee are back with an exciting project! In gymnastics, both athletes have taken the all-around title vying with the world’s top gymnasts as the world watched. Following this resilient mindset, be it Biles’s comeback after a mental health break or Lee’s rare kidney disease, nothing has stopped these trailblazers.

Another fondly experienced memory they share is the leotards which they appear in while creating history. The apparel brand GK Elite time and again appreciates its athletes giving them a unique stage. As the holidays near, gymnastics fans are gifted yet another reason to feel closer to their favorite gymnasts!
Not only the mats, Simone and Sunisa have proven to also have potential posing qualities. While promoting the national team’s apparel sponsor brand GK, many have noted the all-rounders have fun while releasing exclusive leotards. However, after being first uploaded on Biles’s Instagram story, which was later put down, GK shared a sneak peek of the Olympians’ mid-shoot video from the Black Friday sale.
Biles was seen showing off her back design with cuts on the upper back in a full black with glitter details. Lee wore a divided hot pink and purple leotard in the shoot. They were joined by fellow teammates including Jordan Chiles, and Jade Carey. Each one seems to have been put on a task taking on the role of directing their looks as the photographer clicked.
Back in 2021, Biles was all set to make her back-to-back Olympic gold triumph record, something that never happened in more than 50 years! For the Tokyo Olympics, she collaborated with GK Elite to make a bedazzled silver goat print.
Explaining her idea behind, Biles stated, “I just hope that kids growing up watching this don’t or aren’t ashamed of being good at whatever they do. And that’s my problem: when people kind of harp on other people that are good at something.” However, despite an upsetting twisties incident, Biles returned to the mats to win a balance beam bronze and made a triumphant return this year.
