Simone Bilesis speaking out.
Posting a photo of a confused-looking child scratching their headon X(formerly known as Twitter), she added a question to followers in the caption.
“Are y’all done yet?” Biles wrote alongside the photo.
Criticism of Owens was centered around a point in the conversation where Crowder asked him, “How in the hell did you pull Simone Biles?”
The NFL player responded “It’s really how she pulled me, man, that’s the question,” and recounted how he had not initially known who Biles was and explained why.
“Whenshe won the Olympics, I was in college and we didn’t have NBC, we didn’t haveOlympicschannels, and we were in [training] camp [in] late July, early August,” he told Crowder, adding, “So I’m not paying attention. I never would’ve had a moment where I would’ve watched [her compete].”
Owens then detailed how the decorated gymnast messaged him first on a dating app and that the pair were “texting back and forth” before they met up three days later.
When the NFL star was asked if he considered himself the “catch” in his relationship with Biles, he explained that, “I always say that the men are the catch.”
He then said that he had been “afraid to commit” because of where he was in life at the time, adding, “I’m like, ‘It’s kinda early.'”
“But you know, it happens when you least expect it. When we hung out,we just hit it off instantly. Laughed the whole night,” he continued, before explaining that he realized how successful Biles was when he saw how fans reacted to her.

Biles and Owens first met on the dating app Raya in 2020 and tied the knot in April 2023 during an intimate courthouse ceremony. The new husband and wife then celebrated with a second wedding in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, the following month.
In 2021, Bilestold PEOPLEthat the pair are always able to rely on each other for support.
“Oh, he’s always so supportive,” she said of her husband. “Even if I wake up in the morning and I’m like, ‘I’m tired, do I have to go,’ jokingly, he’s like ‘Don’t say that! You can do it, this is your dream!'”
