“This was one of, if not the scariest, experience of my life, especially since Jonathan was in Indy for practice. I’ve been resting in bed this week. I’ll explain sooner or later, but [shoutout] To my inner circle who have reached out to me, checked in, visited and/or sent me flowers.”

Biles’ husband, Jonathan Owens, is a safety for the Indianapolis Colts. The couple has been married since 2023, but Owens’ NFL career has forced them to spend time apart at times. He has played for five different teams since entering the league as an undrafted free agent in 2018.
The two met when Owens was with the Houston Texans in 2019. Biles lives in Texas, where the couple built a massive home together. Since his time in Houston, Owens has played for the Green Bay Packers, Chicago Bears and now the Colts.
In November, Biles revealed that she had recently undergone three plastic surgeries.
