Star gymnast Simone Biles set fans off online after pulling up to Saturday’s preseason game between her husband Jonathan Owens’ Chicago Bears and the Cincinnati Bengals wearing something very surprising.
Biles, who starred at the recent Summer Olympic Games in Paris, France, is returning the love after Owens took time off from training camp to fly to Paris to support her. Still, Bears fans didn’t quite appreciate her presence because she was strangely wearing a jacket bearing the logo of his former team, the Green Bay Packers.
Check her out in the photo below:

“Yeh, not cool,” someone else wrote.
“This is bad,” another comment read.
“F**k her jacket,” someone spat.
“thats not what we talking about,” another agreed.
“Love that for the Bears. She knows who owns them,” a user joked.
“As a Packers fan who misses having her at the games, I’m okay with this compromise lol,” another quipped.
“With all due respect, Simone Biles gotta throw that jacket in the trash ASAP. How did she get in with that?” someone else asked.
Of course, Simone Biles wore the threads to support her husband, as his photos are on the jacket. But she will need an updated version if she is to endear herself to fans of his new team.
As much as it’s a nod to her spouse, Bears fans won’t care for anything Packers-themed from the gymnast.
Michelle Obama Fires Off Truth Bomb On Simone Biles’ Gesture Toward Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade Following Ravens Star Marlon Humphrey Lashing Out At The U.S. Gymnast
Former United States First Lady Michelle Obama has added her voice to the chatter following Baltimore Ravens star Marlon Humphrey criticizing Team USA gymnast Simone Biles.
The NFL cornerback branded Biles’ gesture towards Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade “disgusting” after the latter won gold in the women’s floor event at the Summer Olympic Games in Paris, France, this week.
Biles, who won three gold medals and one silver at the prestigious event, joined American teammate Jordan Chiles in honoring Andrade following her impressive win.
Humphrey took to X/Twitter with claims that “This is literally disgusting.”
Obama defended Biles’ actions, calling it a “beautiful moment.”
“I’m still not over this beautiful moment of sisterhood and sportsmanship!” she tweeted. “You can just feel the love shining through these ladies. Congrats Rebeca, Jordan and Simone!”

Simone Biles Taught Marlon Humphrey Something About Sportsmanship Following His Criticism
Simone Biles responded to Marlon Humphrey’s flak with grace, stating she was simply giving her competitor deserved praise.
“I think it’s all about sportsmanship, and we don’t care whether we win or lose,” she said on the ‘TODAY’ show this Tuesday (H/T the Daily Mail). “We’re always going to keep a good face and support our competitors because they’ve worked just as hard as we have for that moment.”
Humphrey later admitted to “getting cooked” online after his tweet went viral. The NFL star himself was subject to lots of criticism, with hordes of fans lashing out at him over the absurd take. Michelle Obama was hardly the only person who found it in poor taste.
“I’ve never had an athlete so close,” Biles added. “This definitely kept me alert and brought out the best athlete in me. So I’m excited and proud to compete with her.
“I’ve never been so stressed before. Thank you, Rebeca.”
