Olympic gymnast Simone Biles and fiancé Jonathan Owens, a safety for the Houston Texans, were officially married, the couple announced on social media.

“I do,” Biles wrote on Instagram Saturday, adding a pair of heart emojis and revealing that she’s “officially owens.”

The couple made their relationship public on Instagram in August 2020, and Biles and Owens were engaged in 2022 — when Owens proposed on Valentine’s Day with an oval-cut diamond ring from Zo Frost, the jeweler told Page Six last year.

“He and I started the process together a few months ago to select the perfect diamond for Simone that was handpicked by Jonathan,” Frost said.

The jeweler that Owens wanted to include a halo around the diamond.

Owens also posted about his marriage Saturday, captioning his Instagram post with “My person, forever” and sharing snaps from their Houston, Texas ceremony.

The wedding for Biles, 26, and Owens, 27, has been in the works since their engagement last year.

Biles donned “Mrs. Owens” jeans during her bachelorette party in Belize in February.

Then, Biles posted on Instagram last week that the couple received their marriage license, posing alongside her future husband and their certificate in a car with the month and date still blank.

Those spaces were filled in on Friday, according to a tweet from Owens. 

Their relationship dates back to 2020, but they even had a “crazy” encounter at a Texans game before the pair were linked together — when Biles dissected photos from a December 2019 game where she led Houston out of the tunnel and recognized Owens in the background.

“Not [Owens] walking in front of the camera before I’m introduced,” Biles noted in a second Instagram post.

Owens has spent the first four seasons of his NFL career with the Texans.

Biles won seven Olympic medals — four gold, one silver and two bronze — and represented the United States at the 2020 and 2016 Olympics in Tokyo and Rio, respectively.
