Simone Biles is officially done with the negativity shared toward her husband, Jonathan Owens.
Five months after the Green Bay Packers star went viral over his controversial comment comparing the duo's athleticism, fame and notoriety before embarking on their relationship, the Olympic gymnast is still at battle with critics who continue to reference the ordeal in comments shared to her social media posts.
But on Sunday, May 19, Biles attempted to end the ridicule once and for all with a firm statement shared to her Instagram Story.
"I'm going to quickly address this, the joke was never a joke," the 27-year-old wrote on a colorful background. "Y'all are blatantly being disrespectful to my relationship & my husband. So I'm gonna go ahead and say this one time. Respectfully, f--k off."
"If you keep commenting or tweeting at me I'm just going to block you," Biles continued. "Simple as that. And no I don't need to touch grass or whatever else tf y'all suggest."
"@ everyone else that supports us, we love y'all so much," she concluded.
While the public has certainly made it clear where they stand regarding the December 2023 podcast interview where Owens claimed he was the "catch," several A-listers have also gotten in on the drama–including fellow NFL star Travis Kelce who joked awkwardly about the situation with his brother, Jason Kelce, during a taping of their award-winning New Heights podcast.
The celebrity couple hasn't let the 28-year-old's interview–or the public–deter them from fully embracing their relationship and marriage, as they've continued to gush over each other in several social media posts since.
