Jonathan Owens sends sweet congratulations to Simone Biles on 3rd Olympics bid

NFL player Jonathan Owens this week shared a congratulatory message for his wife, gymnastics star Simone Biles , after she earned a spot on her third Olympics team.

"No words can describe how proud of you i am baby 🤎 Just knowing all the work that you put in and everything that you've been through, and to still come back and be as dominant as ever, i was speechless," Owens wrote in an Instagram post Monday, alongside a series of photos of Biles from the U.S. Gymnastics Olympic Trials in Minneapolis, Minnesota. "I'm so thankful to be apart of this journey with you, and i cant wait to be able to watch you out there in Paris."

He continued, "Cheers to going to your third Olympic Games!!!!!! Just sounds so surreal being able to say my wife is the best to EVER do it, how did i get so lucky 😌 I love you so much."

Owens attended the Olympic trials in Minneapolis, where Biles placed first in the competition, earning a spot on the team alongside Jordan Chiles, Jade Carey, Hezly Rivera and Suni Lee.

Following the competition, Biles, a seven-time Olympic medalist, confirmed that Owens would travel to Paris to watch her compete in the 2024 Games, which kick off on July 26.

"The Bears are actually granting him a couple days off from training camp, so he'll be there," the Olympian said, per People . "Yes, for just a short little time."

She continued, "I think it's super exciting that we get to be in each other's elements and supporting each other's dreams and goals … and yeah, it is these memories that we make that we'll never get back."

Biles explained she and Owens try to make time to be there for each other when they could.

"Anytime we can show up for one another and support, we just get super excited because our schedules don't align that much," she added. "So whenever it does, it's really important for the both of us to show up and support."

The couple celebrated their first anniversary in April with both posting sweet tributes to each other on their Instagram.

"I'm excited for many more to come," Biles wrote, in part. "I wish I could marry you a million times more! I love you so much!"

Alongside a sweet image of him and Biles from their courthouse wedding, Owens posted, "One year down ... Man does time fly, i love you so much baby."
