Simone Biles is one step closer to tying the knot with Jonathan Owens. On October 17, 2022, the Olympic gold medalist shared a sneak peek of her wedding dress with her Instagram followers. “On bride duty ????????♀️,” she captioned the post. In the photo, Biles is wearing a white strapless mini dress covered in feathers while standing in front of a rack of bridal party looks. Her NFL player fiancé expressed his excitement for their upcoming nuptials. “I can’t wait,” he commented on the post.
On March 7, 2022, the iconic bridal designer Galia Lahav also revealed that the gymnast is going to sport a few looks she created. Lahav documented the bride-to-be’s wedding dress shopping journey by posting a carousel of photos, showing a few of the dresses the athlete tried on while searching for the one. “It’s official: She said “YES to the dress(es)!” ????,” the designer wrote on Instagram.
“We are over the moon & so honored about gold medalist & mega athlete @simonebiles becoming a GL Bride!” Biles is shown wearing a beaded A-line dress with a corset top in the first photo and a strapless embroidered fit-and-flare gown in the second. The final photo is of the Olympic gymnast, holding up a sign that says, “I said yes to the dress at Galia Lahav LA.” Biles and the designer are keeping us guessing because none of the gowns pictured are any of the ones the bride will wear down the aisle.
The athletic duo first formed a connection after Biles slid into Owens’s DMs in 2019. In August of 2020, they made their relationship official on Instagram. After the NFL star popped the question, the couple announced their engagement in February 2022. Now, they’re busy planning a 2023 wedding.
