In one of the images from the post, captioned "bring your wife to work 🏈🤭," Biles and Owens stood facing and smiling at each other. She can be seen wearing sunglasses, a form-fitting black tank top, and ripped black jean shorts, accessorized with a black chain-strap handbag.

Meanwhile, he wore a white compression-style shirt with gray shoulder panels and black shorts with gray and orange trim. The most striking detail, however, was how the 4-foot-8 gymnast had to crane her neck to look up at her 5-foot-11 husband.

Their noticeable height difference was just as clear in the other photo, where Owens knelt beside Biles as they wrapped one arm around each other.

Another image showed the couple holding hands in the parking lot next to a black SUV. The first picture of the post captured the couple sharing a kiss on the field, with Owens dressed in his team uniform.

While much of their shared content highlights public moments, the couple also offers glimpses into their more private escapes. In July, Owens posted several vacation photos from their trip to Belize, where they can be seen riding a boat, enjoying the hotel pool, fishing, diving, and much more.

In May 2023, the football star also shared a series of images from their April 22 wedding, which included heartwarming moments like Biles's father walking her down the aisle and Owens's emotional expression as he waited for her. One standout image showed the couple sharing a romantic dipping kiss after being pronounced husband and wife.

The ceremony marked a new chapter in their journey, which began in March 2020 and deepened with their engagement on Valentine's Day in 2022. During an exclusive interview with Today back then, Hoda Kotb asked Biles if she knew the proposal was coming.

"I thought it might happen this year but definitely not on Valentine's Day, so that's why it was such a shock," she answered. "The way he set up everything was just so seamless, and it was just a normal Valentine's Day for us, at least."

Owens was then asked how he went about preparing to ask the gymnast to marry him. "It was a lot of planning," he replied. "It probably took about two and a half months. Um, I kind of started talking to the jeweler in early December, just getting everything, you know, situated."

Additionally, Owens said his cousin helped coordinate key details, such as reserving the restaurant and arranging the photographer, while he was tied up with work. The football star also confirmed that Simone Biles had no idea he was planning to pop the question.
