Breaking News:Simone Biles ‘Broke Down’ for Critics on Internet as fans Told Her To Divorce Husband After Viral Interview…See More.
Simone Biles’ husband, Jonathan Owens, landed unexpectedly in some hot water in December after he interviewed with The Pivot Podcast and said he didn’t know who she was when they first met. The new Chicago Bears safety also stated that he was “the catch,” and Biles fans weren’t having it.
The 27-year-old four-time Olympic gold medalist recently talked about how the interview going viral made her feel on the April 17 episode of Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast.
The most decorated gymnast began by reminding people that she was in the room while Owens did the interview. “I was like, ‘My man just killed that,’” she joked, referring to how he handled the conversation with the podcast’s hosts.
So, whenever he did that interview, I thought everything was OK. And then I go on Twitter, and everybody’s like, ‘Divorce this man, he’s mean.’ I’m like, he’s the sweetest. He praises the ground that I walk on. Truly, I’ve never met a man like him,” she said.
She also wanted to clear up the NFL player’s statement about him being the catch since that particular quip left a bad taste in people’s mouths.
“He never said I wasn’t a catch. He said he was a catch because he is,” she explained. “I’ve never met a man like him. A lot of people that meet him are like, ‘Oh my gosh, I want a man like that,’” she said.
