A truly remarkable World Gymnastics Championship week saw exceptional performances by Simone Biles this month. Biles cemented her status as the undisputed G.O.A.T in gymnastics with her record-breaking 37 Worlds and Olympics combined medals. With Biles, the US team won their seventh straight team gold leaving Brazil and France behin. Likewise, Leanne Wong’s consistency and skills at the World Championships have certainly contributed to Team USA’s remarkable success.

Additionally, an unexpected turn of events put Wong at the center of attention. With incredible camaraderie, Leanne stepped up and performed on the vault and floor when her teammate Joscelyn Roberson had to step out of competition due to injury. The American gymnasts held up higher standards throughout the championship. A glimpse of what went down behind the scenes in thick of action was exclusively revealed to our team recently. Leanne opened up about how hectic it was for her. Now, she has revealed what it’s like for Simone Biles!

Simone Biles’ compatriot shares her real side

In a recent exclusive interview with Essentially Sports, Leanne Wong asked, “Whats the most surprising thing about Simone that people don’t know? Like if I were to get to know Simone Biles, what would surprise me?” The Kansas-born gymnast replied, “Simone Biles is incredibly talented and has 30 World Championship medals under her belt, but she’s still human.”

Through Biles’s decade-long elite commitment to gymnastics, she has often shown incredible tenacity. This unwavering quality is demonstrated in her comeback to the competitive scene following a two-year professional break. Wong added, “Simone still gets nervous, makes mistakes, and gets tired like everyone else. Everything she does looks effortless, but all her success doesn’t come without a lot of hard work.” However, many critics were quick to label her a “quitter” since her event withdrawal during the Tokyo Olympics.

The Olympic gymnast appeared at the Packers-Vikings game but it gained less attention compared to Taylor Swift’s appearances

Simone Biles doesn’t get enough TV coverage because she is black is the latest sociopolitical theory to come out of X, formerly known as Twitter.

The American gymnast appeared at the Green Bay Packers game against the Minnesota Vikings but wasn’t picked up by the TV crews in the same ilk that Taylor Swift has at the Kansas City Chiefs games, leading fans to conclude that racism is at the heart of it.

It apparently has nothing to do with Swift being a far bigger name as evidenced by her ‘Eras Tour’, which is set to break records due to demand and popularity nor that Travis Kelce is a bigger NFL name than Biles‘ husband who has made 20 starts across five years in the sport.

One fan wrote, “it won’t cause she’s black. You know how the nfl feel bout black ppl”.

Whilst another said, “You know they not gonna promote Black love, besides, the Tyler [Taylor] and Kelce is all propaganda”.

A third said, “They not trying to promote Black people being married. Be real. These people are our enemies.”

But quite simply, the numbers do not suggest that Biles is on the same level of stardom as Swift. It’s not her fault, gymnastics just isn’t as popular as pop music.

Google Trends traffic shows that searches for Taylor Swift dwarves that of Biles since September 30, with the latter pretty much flat-lining during the entire period.

Swift also has 275m Instagram followers compared to just the 7m for Biles, which is still an excellent amount but it’s not comparable in this context.

The Chiefs were given an upset in Colorado yesterday as they were soundly beaten 24-9 by the Denver Broncos for just their second loss of the season, with the first coming on opening night. They gave up seven points in the first quarter, seven points in the second and ten in the fourth as the Broncos earned just their third win of the season.

The Chiefs will look to right that wrong when they face the Miami Dolphins at the Arrowhead Stadium on November 5, 2023. The Floridian team are top of the AFC East, whilst the Chiefs lead the AFC West

Beyond her unmatched accomplishments on the gymnastics mat, Simone Biles has frequently shared her passion for tempting cuisines. While most people have favorite restaurants that they visit on a daily basis, competing athletes follow rigid eating regimens to maintain peak physical fitness. Once confessing, Biles said, “Nothing wrong with quick junk I guess. If you can find quick healthy junk.” But doesn’t this juggling risk her maneuvering?

Biles has often credited her success to mindful eating practices, devoting long hours to training with an emphasis on balance. Now on her break, keeping the diet restrictions at bay, the seven-time Olympic medalist shared another one of her guilty pleasures.

What does Simone Biles eat on her off days?

After a week-long triumphant schedule wrap in Antwerp, Biles officially became the winningest gymnast. Back home now, the gymnast was quick to reminisce the European delicacy hinting at her foodie side. After a spooky evening with her tribe, Simone shared a spicy ramen bowl with her friend Frankie Kmet. The picture showed a red runny broth with boiled egg and more with resting chopsticks. Taking to her Instagram story, she wrote, “influenced by @frankiekmet” with a hand heart emoji.

Simone celebrated Halloween in style with her husband, Jonathan Owens whom she flew to support for an NFL game. The duo, dressed in matching black and purple ensembles with striking leopard print designs, exuded a carefree yet fashionable air. The Owens’ Halloween costumes the year before were that of firefighters. Over the years, Biles has shared the celebrated tradition with her followers by posting party pictures from their Halloween on her Instagram.

In all walks of her life, food clearly hasn’t been compromised by Simone’s social media updates. A few days back, Biles playfully confessed that her mind was still preoccupied with fond memories of the delectable waffles from Belgium, indicating that she wasn’t dwelling on her recent triumphs but instead reminiscing about a delightfully sweet experience. That’s not all, the savory topic has also led to her younger sister pulling her leg.

When Simone Biles got labeled by her sister

Simone treated herself and Adria Biles, her younger sister, to a sushi date at a well-known Japanese place a while back. Adria shared a glimpse of Simone enjoying herself as the video showed her dipping her sushi in soy sauce and loving every mouthful. Now, Adria seemed to dislike the dish thinking otherwise, but Simone looked to be enjoying the taste. With a lighthearted tone, Adria shared her feelings and wrote, “i think people who enjoy sushi are LYING.”

Although sushi is highly regarded throughout the world, Adria’s lighthearted post alluded to her mistrust of those who claim to love it, jokingly raising the possibility that her older sister is among the so-called million liars who love sushi. Despite a whole lot of indulgence updates, Biles continues to serve as a role model in her sport hinting at her strict balance.

Simone Biles, one of the best gymnasts to ever grace the sport, took on the role of a cheerleader when she attended the Green Bay Packers vs Minnesota Vikings game on October 29.

Biles was at the game to root for her husband, Jonathan Owens, who plays the strong safety position for the Green Bay Packers. The Olympic champion was seen on the sidelines wearing a white, green, and gold sweatshirt with Owens’ picture on it, and cheered on her husband throughout the game.

While the game left a lot to be desired for the Packers, who witnessed their fourth straight loss of the season, Simone Biles certainly seemed to enjoy her time with the team.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter) after the game, Simone gushed about the NFL team’s hospitality, writing,

This isn’t the first time that Simone Biles has dropped by the football field to support her husband. Earlier in August, the American rocked up to Paycor Stadium sporting her husband’s jersey, where the Green Bay Packers were playing the Cincinnati Bengals in a preseason game.

Simone was also spotted in the crowd for the Packers vs Chicago Bears games before she headed to Antwerp later the same month for the 2023 Artistic Gymnastics World Championships.

Biles had a busy time in Belgium, winning five medals on her return to international gymnastics after a two-year hiatus.

Once the gymnastics season cools down, the world champion told the Today show that fans can expect to see her in a crowd on December 3 when the Green Bay Packers play the Kansas City Chiefs.

With Taylor Swift reportedly dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, fans are hoping to spot Biles and Swift together at the game.

Jonathan Owens reacts to Simone Biles’ World Championships victory

Biles isn’t the only cheerleader in the relationship, as Owens proved back in October when Simone won her sixth all-around gold medal at the 2023 Artistic World Championships.

Taking to X to congratulate his wife on her historic victory, Owens wrote,

Simone Biles and Serena Williams are undoubtedly the queens of the sports world. Williams is the GOAT of tennis with 23 grand slams and was ranked world No. 1 in singles for 319 weeks by the WTA. On the other hand, Biles is the GOAT of gymnastics with 7 Olympic medals, 30 World Championship medals, and 8 national all-around titles.

In a cute convergence, these two worlds met recently thanks to a little fan. After embodying Serena Williams a year ago, she lit up the spooky season with an adorable homage to gymnastics queen Biles.

Mini Simone Biles lights up spooky season

In a recent post on X by a handle called “Samtylerd” she posted an adorable video of her little girl dressed in her Halloween costume. The video opened with the adorable baby declaring, “I am Simone Biles,” dressed in a cute black leotard embellished with gorgeous white rhinestones. She wrote in her caption of the post, “Last year Serena, this year Simone Biles✨🤸🏾‍♀️🥇✨”. The little gymnast also had her hair up in a cute bun and a gold medal adorned around her neck. The resemblance was uncanny and exactly matched Biles’ look on day 2 of the Xfinity National Championships, when she won her eighth national title.

The special leotard was an exclusive collaboration of Biles with the brand GK Elite, and the little girl’s mother showed the efforts and hard work she put into getting the outfit to match the original. What started as a plain black Leo was, with time, effort, hours of creative energy, and hundreds of rhinestones stuck on individually, transformed into a beautiful, dazzling replica of the gymnast’s leotard. The adorable video and homage to the queen took fans back to the iconic moment of Biles this year

The National Championships and Biles’ iconic leotards

At the 2023 Xfinity U.S. Gymnastics Championships, Simone Biles clinched history. Biles claimed not one but three epic accolades on all-around, balance beam, and floor exercise at the event. After an intense 2-day competition, Biles made history by winning her 8th national all-around title and becoming the first gymnast to ever do so. She was also the oldest woman to ever win the all-around at the age of 26.

She dazzled the floor on both days, and her leotard also became an iconic highlight. On the first day, Biles wore a purple leotard embellished with crystals and a crisscross back under which were the words, “But Still I Rise”. On the second day, she wore the leotard that the little gymnast recreated with the same words embroidered on her sleeves near the wrist.

The year 2023 was an epic and inspiring comeback for the gymnastics legend. She made waves in the sport, becoming the most decorated gymnast ever. Hence, if Serena Williams was the inspiration for the little girl last year, it’s evident why she chose Biles as her inspiration this year.

The spooky season is here. Although one of the world’s fastest women, Sha’Carri Richardson, was not spotted in a Halloween costume, the athlete was graced with a unique honor. Actress Kerry Washington was seen wearing Richardson’s blue track outfit and orange wig she wore for the Tokyo Olympics trials. However, apart from this unique honor, many top-notch Olympians were spotted dressing up at this event.

Just hours ago, Biles took to Instagram to share the couple’s Halloween shenanigans.

Just as Batman has Robin, Bert has Ernie, and Simone Biles has her perfect sidekick, Baby Biles, aka Ronnie Biles. Ronni is the adorable niece of the gymnastics legend. Almost a year old, the tiny toddler is the littlest and favorite fan of her aunt TT. From traveling at just 9 months old to cheer for her gymnastics queen aunt, to her loud coos seeing her on TV, and to even developing an interest in the gymnastics sport, Baby Biles can’t stop admiring and adoring her TT Simone Biles.

Simone, too, can’t get enough of the munchkin’s cuteness and always showers the angel with all her love. However, in a recent adorable mix-up, Baby Biles was left dissatisfied with her aunt Simone Biles’ silent treatment.

In a recent update by Sammi Biles, Ronni’s mom, and Simone’s sister-in-law, she shared an adorably hilarious yet upsetting update. She posted a picture of Baby Biles dressed in a cute pink onesie, hugging a huge poster of a Kellogg’s cereal box. But why was she doing that? Well, in a funny twist, her aunt Simone Biles was featured on the cereal box, posing with her Olympic medal.

Sammi wrote alongside the cute update, “Trying to talk to TT but she’s not responding back,” with a laughing emoji tagging the legend. This hilarious update showed the adorable innocence of the little angel, who adores her aunt and can’t get enough of her. The picture was also an endearing throwback to the time Biles became an ambassador for the brand back in 2016

Reminiscing about the iconic memories of 2016

Back in 2016, when Simone Biles was the three-time reigning world all-around champion, Kellogg’s featured her in a pre-Olympic campaign before the Rio Olympics. Biles was featured on the cover of the limited-edition “Special K Red Berries and Corn Flakes” cereal boxes that came out that year in June. However, this wasn’t the only time she made it on the million-dollar cereal brand boxes.

In August 2016, Biles and the rest of the Final Five, which included Aly Raisman, Gabby Douglas, Laurie Hernandez, and Madison Kocian, featured on the box, clinching their Olympic gold medals. And Biles was once again featured on the other side of the box, with her individual all-around gold medal around her neck, which she won at the Rio Olympics. This box was part of the limited edition double side packs by the brand that were released in the flavor “Special K red berries” that year.

This was the very poster Baby Biles was seen hugging in the adorable update by Sammi. The picture not only captured her cute innocence but was also a powerful reminder of how far Biles has come since 2016, becoming the most decorated gymnast ever in 2023.

Simone Biles, the gymnastic GOAT, recently clinched her 6th World Title at the 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships. Right after she walked home with 4 golds from the Worlds, her personal life came into the limelight. Jonathan Owens, with his Green Bay Packers team, had locked horns with the Minnesota Vikings last Sunday. As his lady luck graced the VIP box to cheer him on, the 28-year-old felt an extra boost.

Biles and Owens tied the nuptial knot on April 22, 2023. Due to individual professional commitments, the duo stayed away for long. But when the 26-year-old Olympian made her NFL appearance a while ago, it led to heavy online trolling. Disregarding the past hindrances, Biles stood by her husband throughout his NFL season. Having said that, she even fell at the mouth of strong comparisons with pop icon Taylor Swift, only to redeem the love of netizens. On a pleasant note, after Owens’ Sunday match, the couple stepped out for a date night.

Simone Biles hypes up her beauty

On October 29, 2023, after a thrilling bout between Packers and Vikings at the Lambeau Field stadium, the scores stood in the latter’s favor. Unfortunately, the 10-24 conclusion was a clear loss of the Packers’, but not a loss for Owens. At all times, the 28-year-old and his beautiful wife hype each other up through social media posts. Earlier today, a similar post of the Olympian caught attention again.

Date nights are a mandate for the Owens’ when they reunite after being away for long. Their last meeting brought the dream house’s progress to light, whereas this meeting featured some delectable plates. In a recent Instagram story, Biles posted a table full of delicious food, with the caption, “date night.” According to the photo, it looked like they savored mac n cheese, steak with greens, lamb chops and a salad

For athletes of such measure, cheat days happen less. But for the power couple, food is what they bond over. Especially when Owens didn’t have much to celebrate about his game, he needed the date. Like the 7X Olympic medalist wearing a customized t-shirt cheered on her boo, the paparazzi caught them sharing an in-game moment.

Owens and his wife steal attention

Amid the game anxiety peaking, the adorable couple diverted fans’ attention to their romance. Having his wife at the VIP box was tough for Owens, as he yearned for some quality time. Also, having his wife as his greatest support system aided him in playing better. In between the game, the husband ran to the stands to share a moment with his wife. In a recent Instagram post by ESPN, the caption read, “The sideline cameo we’ve been waiting for.” Moments like these get the fans glued more than the actual game. Sharing ESPN’s post as his Instagram story, Owens wrote, “Always great having my baby there.” Meanwhile, right after the matchJonathan shared an Instagram story, showing a deep freshly sewed scar on his left cheek. Though he faced another hard blow on the face with the loss, Biles made all his wounds disappear instantaneously.

She even left her NFL hunk showing off his cute dimples as he blushed at seeing her cute gesture for him on the sidelines. And now, just hours after this endearing moment, Biles, alongside her $300,000 ring, added another shiny gesture for her husband.

Simone Biles adds another shiny gesture for Jonathan Owens

In a latest Instagram story by Jonathan Owens, he shared a glamorous yet humble update. He posted a picture of his wife Simone Biles’ perfectly manicured hands, showing off her many rings, and added three heart emojis. Her engagement diamond, which is worth a whopping $300,000, her diamond-studded wedding band, a Cartier love ring, and a Dior revolution ring stood out brightly.

However, what caught the attention of fans were her two new symbols of love for her husband. One ring read “OWENS,” similar to the necklace she often wears. Another was a simple silver band with the letter “J” added as a charm. These two rings were recently added by Biles as an adorable token of affection for her man. This gesture comes just days after she floored her husband from miles away.

How she floored her husband just days ago

Just days ago, when Biles was in Houston away from Owens, she shared an endearing update. Biles stated in the past that in order to protect her precious $300,000 engagement diamond and her wedding band, she often wears a decoy silicone band during gymnastics training.

However, missing her love, Owens, terribly, Biles was seen wearing both her tokens of love in the gymnasium while posing in a stunning black and white image in her Instagram update. The engagement ring has become an iconic symbol between the two, as Owens had it custom-made by the jeweler Zo Frost to propose to his lady love

Seeing the adorable new simple yet gleaming symbols of love added to her fingers has warmed fans’ hearts as they continue to root for their favorite sports couple, Owens and Biles.
