Simone Biles Secures Paris Olympics Spot with Stunning Floor Routine, Husband Jonathan Owens Cheers On

Date:

Simone Biles, the most decorated gymnast in history, has officially qualified for her third Olympic Games, securing her spot-on Team USA for the Paris 2024 Olympics. The 27-year-old four-time Olympic gold medalist sealed her qualification with a remarkable floor routine at the Target Center in Minneapolis, earning an all-around score of 117.225.

Biles’ husband, Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens, was present to support his wife during the qualification event. TV cameras captured Owens leaping to his feet and leading a standing ovation following Biles’ floor routine. Expressing his pride on Instagram, Owens wrote, “We going to Paris. Man I’m so proud.”

The gymnast’s performance not only secured her Olympic berth but also impressed pop superstar Taylor Swift. Biles used Swift’s song “Ready For It” during her floor routine, prompting the singer to express her admiration on social media.

Biles’ journey to the Paris Olympics comes after her experience at the Tokyo Games in 2021, where she withdrew from the all-around final to focus on her mental health. Reflecting on her comeback, Biles told NBC, “I knew I wasn’t done after the performances in Tokyo. So just getting back in the gym and working hard and trusting the process… I knew I’d be back.”

The U.S. women’s gymnastics team for Paris 2024 is shaping up to be formidable, with Sunisa Lee and Jordan Chiles finishing second and third behind Biles. Jade Carey and Hezly Rivera completed the top five, while Joscelyn Roberson and Leanne Wong will join as traveling replacement athletes.

Biles and Owens, who began dating in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, celebrated their first wedding anniversary in 2023. Their relationship has been a source of strength for Biles as she continues to dominate the world of gymnastics.

As Simone Biles prepares for her third Olympic appearance, the gymnastics world eagerly anticipates her performance in Paris, where she will once again represent Team USA on the global stage.
