Gymnastics' golden girl is now a married woman.
Simone Biles, the most decorated gymnast in the sport's history, married NFL player Jonathan Owens , she shared Saturday on social media . The happy couple posted pictures to social media celebrating their big day.
"I do officially owens," Biles said with white hearts, sharing photos of her in a tiered white wedding dress and him in a tan suit. In one image, she's smiling as he holds his fist in the air, while in another, he is holding her up while they share a kiss.
"My person, forever," he said with a red heart and ring emoji.
An image of them signing their marriage certificate says the wedding was held Friday.
Biles, a seven-time Olympic medalist, celebrated her 26th birthday and broke ground on a home with Owens in March. They first made their relationship public in 2020 and announced their engagement in February 2022 when the superstar gymnast posted a photo of Owens proposing to her . They shared engagement photos with fans in November.
Owens, a starting safety for the Houston Texans , had 125 tackles last season.
Biles, who has also won 25 World Championship medals, was one of USA TODAY's 2022 Women of the Year after she withdrew from the Tokyo Olympics and spoke up about the importance of mental health.
Biles said she hopes to have children one day when the time is right.
"I think kids would be amazing," she said. "I think it's one of the most amazing feelings in the world, what I've heard, but I do get that it becomes a job, and it's hard. And I do work a lot, but I don't think that will be a problem because I can take some time off. One day in the near future."
