PARIS Olympics hero Simone Biles has hit back at her husband and Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Ownens’ critics.
The NFL star came under heavy scrutiny after being pictured wearing the Team USA gymnast’s gold medal earlier this week.

Biles , 27, and her US co-stars triumphed in the women’s gymnastics team final on Tuesday.
The picture sparked outrage among some of the gymnast’s fans who took issue with the Bears safety having the medal on.
Among them was TikTok influencer Kiera Breaugh, who told Ownes to “take her medal off.”
The viral post reached Biles’ feed — and the Team USA star was not happy.
“Crazy thing is, I put my medal on every single one of my family members and took pictures,” Biles wrote in the comment, per the Daily Mail .
“So don’t ever make assumptions.”
She added, “Like y’all are so f***ing miserable. Leave us alone.”
Biles’ fans have not been fond of Owens since he made awkward comments about their romance two years ago.
The ex-Missouri Western standout suggested he was “the catch” in the relationship and said he didn’t know who his would-be wife was when they connected on a dating app.
Owens seems to have been a supportive husband since then.
