Simone Biles recently opened up about the mental toll she experienced due to the backlash faced by her husband, Jonathan Owens, following a controversial interview he gave on the 'Pivot' podcast in December 2023. Owens, an NFL player, sparked controversy online when he claimed he didn't know who Biles, the most decorated gymnast of all time, was before they started dating. He further stirred the pot by suggesting he was a bigger catch than the seven-time Olympic champion.
Despite the online criticism Owens faced, Biles clarified that he never intended to undermine her achievements and praised him for being a supportive and caring partner. She expressed her dismay at the negative comments directed towards her husband, emphasizing that he is a kind and loving individual who goes out of his way to support her.
