Simone Biles planted a good luck kiss on husband Jonathan Owens before the Chicago Bears’ playoff showdown with the Green Bay Packers.
Biles, 28, smooched Owens, 30, on the snowy sidelines of Soldier Field on Saturday, January 10.
The greatest gymnast of all-time was wearing a floor-length leather and fur coat, complete with pants emblazoned with her husband’s last name on them.
Biles also paid tribute to Owens with her outfit for the Bears’ regular season finale on Sunday, January 4, sporting orange pants stitched with the safety’s number and name.
Owens and Biles got married in April 2023.
Biles has been a steady presence at Bears games — both home and away — all season long, which Owens gushed about during a story published by the Chicago Tribune on Friday, January 9.
“She’s been at every game, which I love my wife for that, man,” Owens said. “She’s making big sacrifices.”

The Bears finished the regular season 11-6 and won the NFC North for the first time since 2018. Owens signed a two-year contract with Chicago in March 2024.
“[We’re] just embracing the moment and relishing just how special this season is because I’ve been in Arizona, [who] went 3-13 [in 2018],” Owens explained. “I’ve been in Houston, where [we] had a bunch of success in 2019 when we went to the playoffs. And I was in Houston where we won four games [in 2020 and ’21].”
He continued, “It’s been a roller coaster of a career, wins-wise. So just realizing how special this season is, it doesn’t happen often. Just being able to have a record like this, a team like, get wins the way that we have. So embracing we’re just embracing the moment, trying to spend as much time as we can together, just because she does have a lot more time now.”
Biles even turned her love of football into a side gig last month, working as a credentialed photographer on the sidelines during the Bears game against the San Francisco 49ers on December 28.
“We are here at Sunday Night Football when the Bears take on the 49ers, and I’m gonna be taking some photographs,” Biles said in a video shared by the NFL on social media.
The NFL captioned the video: “NFL photographer @Simone_Biles in the house for Bears-49ers!”
As for her own athletic pursuits, Biles still hasn’t ruled out competing in the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
“Everyone likes to talk about L.A. and what that road looks like for me,” Biles said during a visit to Argentina in October. “So currently, I am taking some time off from the gym because I think it’s really important that your physical health matches your mental health.”
She added, “I’m not sure what 2028 looks like, but I will be there in some capacity. I just don’t know right now if it’s on the floor or in the stands. But I definitely want to go and be a part of that movement.”
