The two lovebirds have not been shy about their affection for one another… at least on social media. They went IG official back in July and have been all over each other’s feeds ever since. However, the biggest love flex came when Simone joined Hoda Kotb on the "Today Show" in January. Hoda was supposed to ask about the current Olympic games but she was laser-focused on her love life.

“He’s a real man,” Biles said when Hoda asked why they are so good together. “I love him, we have a great time together. Our personalities match right up, we have the same sense of humor, and he’s just great!”

“He’s an athlete too, so we really understand each other and I think that’s why our relationship has been seamless,” she continued. “He also has a bulldog, so besides him being a cherry on top, that was really amazing and our dogs get along well.”
