In a recent interview, Simone Biles, the renowned Olympic gymnast, came to the defense of her husband, Jonathan Owens, who sparked controversy with his remarks about not having watched her Olympic performances. Biles, who has been married to the NFL player since April 2023, shared her perspective on the situation and expressed her support for her husband.

During the interview, Jonathan Owens explained that during Biles' Olympic glory, he was in college without access to channels broadcasting the Games. As NFL training camps usually take place during the time of the Olympics, he admitted that he was not paying much attention to the event. Simone, who was present during the interview, was seen giggling when her husband's comments surprised the podcast hosts.

Jonathan's comments went viral, prompting a wave of backlash from internet users. However, he stood by his stance in a subsequent interview with Vanity Fair, revealing that Simone had actually messaged him first. Despite the criticism, Simone empathized with her husband and defended his right to have his own moments.

In response to the public outrage over Jonathan's remarks, Biles expressed her disappointment with those who attacked her husband. She emphasized that the interview was mainly focused on Jonathan and his experiences, and it was unfair for critics to expect her to be involved in every aspect of his media appearances. Nonetheless, Simone revealed that the negative comments hurt her, especially when her family was involved.

"It really hurt that they were talking about my husband like that. Because for me, it's like, talk about me all you want, but don't come for my family, never," Biles stated. She acknowledged that she occasionally cried about the situation but stated that she couldn't engage in a direct confrontation, leading her to find solace in privately expressing her emotions.

Simone Biles' unwavering support for her husband amidst the controversy surrounding his comments showcases the strength of their relationship. Despite the public scrutiny, the couple is united and determined to overcome any challenges that may come their way. As both continue to excel in their respective fields, their bond remains unbreakable.

In a world where social media can amplify scrutiny and criticism, Biles' defense of her husband serves as a reminder that personal relationships should be protected and respected, even in the face of public opinion.
