Simone Biles is being celebrated everywhere she goes! The 11-time Olympic medalist, now 27, received a warm and enthusiastic welcome while dining at Maple & Ash restaurant in Chicago with her husband, Jonathan Owens. The couple was out on Saturday, August 17, after watching Owens’ team, the Chicago Bears, dominate the Cincinnati Bengals with a 27-3 victory.
In a boomerang clip shared on her Instagram Stories, Biles posed alongside Owens, 29, holding up a special custom menu made just for her. The menu proudly proclaimed “Olympic F—— Champion!” — a nod to her extraordinary performance at the 2024 Olympics in Paris, where she secured three gold medals and one silver. The playful and celebratory message captured the joy of the moment, with some letters in the expletive humorously replaced by symbols.

Biles also posted a close-up of the menu, zooming in on the bold words, along with another boomerang clip showing the group she was dining with, toasting during the meal. It was a night full of celebration and recognition for the champion gymnast, who had just returned from Paris a few days earlier on August 12.
Earlier that day, Biles attended Owens’ Chicago Bears game to show her support. Dressed in style, she shared a photo of her outfit for the occasion on Instagram. The ensemble included a black Prada bucket hat and a black and white oversized jacket, which featured an image that seemed to depict her husband in a No. 34 jersey — his number during his time with the Green Bay Packers. She captioned the photo with a spirited “Bear Down.”
In addition to her chic game-day look, Biles sported another accessory: a black ankle brace on her left foot. This brace has been a part of her attire recently, including during the Olympics, after she sustained a calf injury during warmups for the games.
On August 15, Biles shared a heartwarming moment on Instagram, posting a photo of her reunion with Owens. It was their first time together since she returned from the Olympics. The picture showed Owens styling his hair in the bathroom mirror, with one of their bulldogs by his side. Biles captioned the shot with affectionate emojis, capturing her joy at being back home with her husband.
