“Truly Ashamed”: Simone Biles Makes a Honest Confession After Vacation With Jonathan Owens

Truly Ashamed”: Simone Biles Makes a Honest Confession After Vacation With Jonathan Owens

“I ‘ve accomplished way more than in my wildest dreams.” 6 months have flown by, but the memories from August 2024 when Simone Biles brought home 4 Olympic medals and voiced these words are as clear as day. From thinking that she’ll probably never get to be back at the Olympics to achieving the most an American gymnast has ever done, is not a small transition. But amid this career-high full of medals and milestones, an ecstatic Biles seems to have missed a rather ordinary chore. But hey, at least, she’s being honest about it in her confessional!

Simone Biles has lived life on the go in the past 6 months! From touring across 30 arenas in the country for a month and a half with her Gold Over America Tour team to hopping on flight rides to visit her husband Jonathan Owens’ NFL games, she’s probably changed suitcase after suitcase. Yet, she’s never hesitated to hop on that private jet and fly miles, be it just to spend Thanksgiving with Owens or to reach Georgia to support her former coach Cecile Landi’s new coaching stint. Clearly, Biles has not had a second to breathe, let alone unpack her Paris Olympics luggage

Yes, you read that right! In an Instagram story posted by Simone Biles on February 7, we see a navy blue suitcase stacked with a pile of clothes lying in a corner, on the floor, probably wondering if it’s been abandoned for good. Accompanying it is a pair of white shoes and a sincere confession in the caption, by the 11x Olympic medalist that reads, “Im truly ashamed to admit that I still have not unpacked one of my suitcases from the olympics……….” However, the gymnast adds a small clarification, “*all clean clothes but still.”

Well, we can let this pass as an honest mistake. After all, we know how busy Simone Biles has been of late. We also know that it’s her nature to be usually particular with packing and managing her luggage. Remember in 2022, she’d told Travel + Leisure how she would carefully number her bags for each day of her travel? “I used to put outfits in plastic bags and write ‘Day 1,’ ‘Day 2,’ or whatever, and that was my packing hack.” Biles had confessed. But then switched to the vacuum-seal bags and elevated her packing game.

Although, we do know that Simone Biles is also a self-confessed overpacker. “My clothes are so little, so I have more space, so I tend to overpack,” she had said in 2022, nearly laughing over her habit. And honestly? It’s stuff like this that makes her so relatable to her fans. She’s so transparent and just herself on social media, that she even posted about not having had the time to unpack her Paris Olympics suitcase! Or remember the time during Christmas when she’d confessed that she’s horrible at wrapping gifts?

Clearly, Simone Biles is the one to look at for learning to be graceful about accepting your shortcomings or slip-ups! And that’s both on and off the mats. At the Paris Olympics, Biles had a fall during the beam individual medal event, which stripped her of the chance of a third consecutive medal. But the way she owned her mistake and continued the routine to get a 13.100 total made her an exemplar. But all these talks aside for now, as she’s just returned from another relaxing vacation with her husband Jonathan Owens. Here’s where they’d been to.

Yes, Simone Biles has been traveling so often lately that she might as well have her own set of wings! In January 2025, we saw her travel to the heart of Europe for a Swiss vacation with her husband. “Taking trips with your best friend >>” not just Jonathan Owens but also Biles feels that’s their favorite thing to do. And now, in February, they added another stop to their travel diary, although they made it back just in time before Valentine’s Day!

As per the latest update, Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens are back home from their time in Miami. Biles just shared an Instagram story showing off their private jet ride home, captioned simply, “back home [emoji].” While their Miami trip may have been short, it was definitely sweet. She even posted a stunning ocean view with the caption, “Nothing like waking up to the beach.”

Truly the two are spending as much time together as possible before their sports seasons begin and it gets hectic again. But for now, that time is over, and it’s back home from the getaway
