Following Simone Biles’ impressive Olympic win, her husband Jonathan Owens faced criticism for his behavior on social media.
Many fans found his posts and comments, which included celebratory messages and emojis, to be “odd” and out of sync with the gravity of Biles’ achievement.
Some critics felt that his exuberant public displays overshadowed Biles’ victory and were seen as a self-serving attempt to gain attention. Others questioned the appropriateness of his reactions in the context of Biles’ significant accomplishment.
Despite the backlash, many supporters argued that Owens was simply excited and proud of his wife’s success.
They highlighted that public figures and their families often face intense scrutiny, and Owens’ reactions were a natural expression of joy and support.
In the end, while opinions on Owens’ behavior were divided, the primary focus remained on celebrating Biles’ extraordinary achievements in gymnastics.
Biles helped USA land its first gymnastics gold of the Paris Games on Tuesday, when they saw off Italy and Brazil in the teams final with an impressive winning score of 171.296.
It goes down as America’s first victory in the event since 2008, with the likes of Sunisa Lee and Jordan Chiles also inspiring them to the historic win in the French capital.
