Eight months after Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens exchanged vows becoming husband and wife, a new interview where Owens is talking about Biles is going viral and for all the wrong reasons.
People on Twitter are sounding off after Owens claimed he didn’t know who Simone Biles was when they met and that it was her who changed and pursued him. Take a listen:
@thepivot How did Jonathan Owens meet hus wife Simone Biles?? Tap in now to hear the story
The hosts themselves were skeptical when Owens said he didn’t know who Biles was when they met, considering she was one of the most decorated athletes in the world. Owen claimed it was because he was in college at the time and didn’t have NBC or the Olympic Channels.
He was also asked how he was able to “pull Simone Biles” but Owens was quick to flip the question, saying, the real question is how she pulled him, which also made the hosts roll their eyes. Here are some of the reactions from Biles’ fans:

What are your thoughts on the interview?
Back in April, Simone Biles just dropped a major surprise on her fans.
While the Olympic gymnast became a legend under the moniker Simone Biles, she revealed that she is now officially Simone Owens!

While it’s unclear when the newlyweds plan on having a bigger ceremony with their family and friends in attendance, the happy couple joined the growing trend of celebrating their love with a small intimate ceremony.
The photos showed Biles in a gorgeous white dress with her hair pulled back in a slick pony tail, while she held a gorgeous bouquet of white flowers. Owens wore a beige suite with white loafers.
The couple looked elated to finally be husband and wife as they exchanged vows in front of a justice of the peace.
