Biles Highlights the Importance of Attending Her Husband’s Games
Biles is a mainstay for Owens appearing as often as she can to support her husband and his team. In a recent interview with Olympics.com, she broke down the reasons for doing so, signifying her love and support for Owens.
“Oh my gosh,” she said. “It means the world to me. And I know it means so much to him for me to be able to go and support his games. For him, it means a lot for me to go on the sideline before because he says that’s his pre-game routine.”
“So, he’s always looking for me on the sideline to give him, like, good luck vibes and wishes. That’s just his superstition.”
The Bears’ season ended in disappointment, as they were unable to qualify for the playoffs.
