Four-time Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles has her forever Valentine.
The gymnast announced her Valentine’s Day engagement to Houston Texans defensive back Jonathan Owens on Tuesday.
“WOKE UP A FIANCÉE,” she posted to Twitter, along with a pair of engagement ring emojis. “I can’t wait to spend forever & ever with you, you’re everything I dreamed of and more! let’s get married!”
Four photos accompanied Biles’ post, including one of the moment Owens got down on one knee to propose.

Biles, 24, and the 26-year-old Owens have been dating since 2020 after they met over social media.
She has credited him for helping her through tough times at the Tokyo Olympics last summer, when a case of the “twisties” forced her to withdraw from some events. She returned to win a bronze medal in the balance beam — her seventh overall Olympic medal.
Owens played in seven games (two starts) for the Texans in 2021. He made 17 tackles, intercepted one pass and recovered a fumble.
