Since Simone Biles’ decision to withdraw from the remaining events that she was due to participate in during the Olympics Games, everyone’s had an opinion. Of course, she was attacked by some people for potentially being soft and quitting. For the most part, though, she’s received a ton of support from all over the place. Last night, her boyfriend, NFL player Jonathan Owens, took to Instagram to share a heartwarming letter to Simone. Along with a ton of different pictures of the star athlete.
This Wasn’t The First Time That He Commented On The Situation
If you’re thinking that Owens had taken long enough to make his public opinion heard on the situation regarding his girlfriend, give us a chance to clear the air. Owens had commented on Simone’s social media accounts when she made the announcement that she was going to remove herself from the remaining competitions. Granted, his public interactions on social media with Simone were not huge. He just commented on Simone’s picture with her teammates after her initial withdrawal, “I’m proud of y’all”.
He Went All-Out This Time

It seems that Owens also took some time to be able to let his emotions sink in. As he finally took to social media to post an out pour of support towards Biles, he started by saying,
“Imma ride with you through whatever baby” He then went on to talk about her strength and courage, “ Your strength and courage is unmatched and you inspire me more and more everyday SB You always gone be my champ baby and don’t you ever forget that, i love you so much and i can’t wait till you come home”

Owens Has Been A Little Busy Himself As Well
If you still think that Owens could’ve gone public with his support a little sooner, this could potentially change your mind. The Houston Texans player just started training camp this week with his team. It’s probably been a hectic couple of days for him as well. Trying to stay in touch with Biles as she went through a very public mental health crisis. That probably included some very late night calls with her while he had to get up and deal with a ton of training sessions per day the next morning.
What’s Biles’ Next Move?
Obviously, Simone Biles has already announced that she would forgo the remaining events at the Olympics. However, she was in the crowd to watch as her teammate Sunisa Lee took the gold in the all around gymnastics event. By all accounts, Biles is literally going to be “just another face in the crowd” for the rest of the Olympic Games. There is really not much else for her to do at this point. After stepping back from all of the competitions.
