Jonathan Owens has declared himself "unbothered" by the backlash that stemmed from comments he made about his wife, Simone Biles. "Unbothered 😂❤️ Just know we locked in over here 🤞🏽," Owens wrote on Instagram alongside a picture of himself and Biles on their wedding day. Additionally, Biles was later seen posting a message of support to her husband in the comments. It appears that the Olympian was unfazed by what her husband had said about the early days of their marriage.
Fans of the seven-time Olympic medalist had been riled up Owens saying he didn't know who Biles was when they first met on a dating app in 2020. He argued that because he was in college at the time of her Olympic breakout, he was in college and didn't have access to the Olympics. At the time of their meeting, March 2020, Owens was a practice squad player for the Texans who had never played an NFL game. Meanwhile, Biles was a five-time Olympic medalist. Furthermore, Owens said that he believed that the man was always the catch in any relationship.
