“Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens Share a Heart-Melting Kiss as He Celebrates Her Historic Olympic Triumph!” “Congrats baby on becoming the most decorated American gymnast in Olympic history!!!! Just wow!!!

The American gymnast won her eighth Olympic medal during the 2024 Summer Games in Paris on Tuesday

The Chicago Bears safety, 29, has finally arrived in Paris to support his gold medal-winning spouse, 27, who happens to have five different skills named after her.

“Witnessing history every time you step on the mat ,” he began in the caption to an Instagram carousel on Tuesday, July 30.

In the upload, Owens shared two photos of the couple together. In each picture, the football pro wore the gymnast’s latest gold — with the two sharing a kiss in the second pic

“Congrats baby on becoming the most decorated American gymnast in Olympic history!!!! Just wow!!!! 8 of them!!!!! So thankful i was there to see it ❤️,” he concluded.

Biles shared her appreciation for her husband in the comment section. “My whole heart. I love you ❤️❤️❤️❤️,” she wrote. “Means the world you’re here.”

Owens’ presence was a rare exception, as his team is currently in training camp for the 2024-2025 NFL season.

During a July 22 press conference, Bears head coach Matt Eberflus explained how Owens negotiated time off from the team’s required training camp to support his wife.

“Just because we respect the Olympics,” Eberflus, 54, said, according to ESPN. “That is a big deal. And he’s just supporting the one he loves the most. And I think that’s so cool that he gets to do that.”

He added: “We welcome that, and it’s going to be awesome. Go USA.”

Though Owens was fully approved, it didn’t clear him of challenges.

In a joint Instagram post shared by the football star and NBC Sports, Owens mentioned during a selfie video from his airplane seat that his flight had a “slight delay,” however everything was “good,” and he was on the way.

In March, PEOPLE spoke exclusively to five-time Olympic gold medalist Nadia Comăneci at an Olympic preview event called Gold Meets Golden, where she discussed Biles’ impact.

“She is given this opportunity to understand who you are and to break barriers and inspire the new generation,” the Romanian-born gymnast, 62, said. “Every generation needs someone to inspire them and she is one of them.”
