Simone Biles hits out at critics
Their one-year anniversary comes after a recent interview with TODAY, where Biles expressed her dismay at negative comments directed towards Owens, urging people to respect her family’s privacy. She referred to Owens calling himself a ‘catch’ in their relationship during a podcast appearance, where he also admitted that he initially didn’t recognize Biles as the Olympic Gold medalist.
“That 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 said.
“One night, I broke down and I’m like, ‘why are you guys talking about my husband like this? You don’t know him, you don’t know who he is, and if anybody’s met him, they know he’s the sweetest guy and will do anything for anybody’.”
