“Like Beyoncé, but with an F.” That was the cheeky caption under a glowing Instagram post from April 9, 2022 — and no, it wasn’t about Queen B herself. It was Simone Biles and her best friend Kayla Simone, sitting side by side, hands up, flaunting sparkling engagement rings, and grinning from ear to ear. A double dose of love, but not what you’d think — Kayla was engaged to Ira Brandon III back in September 2021, and Simone had just said yes to Jonathan Owens in February 2022. The post?
When it comes to showing up for your besties, Simone Biles doesn’t just show up—she shows out. The Olympic icon recently took a wholesome, love-filled trip alongside her husband Jonathan Owens and her sister to celebrate a major milestone in her best friend’s life: a heartwarming baby shower that’s already winning over fans online. This wasn’t just a fly-in, smile, and fly-out kind of moment. This was full of affection, glowing joy, and those real “ride-or-die” friendship vibes. Ready to get all the inside scoop and cozy vibes? Let’s dive right into the journey that had social media saying aww in unison.
A joyful celebration of friendship, milestones, and the unshakable bond between two soul sisters. Fast forward to July 7, 2023. The next chapter in Kayla’s life was her wedding day. And guess who was right there in bridesmaid glam, soaking up every beautiful moment? Simone, of course. The Olympic champ stood proudly by Kayla’s side, just like she always had. And now, nearly two years later, there’s another milestone shimmering on the horizon. And Simone Biles is not keeping calm!
On April 13, 2025, Simone Biles once again showed the world what true friendship looks like. She hopped on her Instagram stories today to share sweet snapshots from Kayla Simone’s baby shower — because yes, Kayla is officially mama-to-be, expecting a baby! But this wasn’t just a casual pop-in. Simone made it an adventure. She hit the road and dubbed the trip, in classic Biles fashion, “road trippin’ to Austin.” Her excitement was genuine — she even drove through a place literally called “Ghost Town” on the way. Talk about riding through anything for your bestie!
The date was almost the same as that unforgettable day three years ago. But the chapter? Completely brand new. And once again, Simone Biles was right there — showing up with love, laughter, and that signature sparkle. At Kayla Simone’s baby shower, Simone didn’t just celebrate — she relived a friendship full of milestones. Baby bumps and blue balloons. And in true full-circle fashion, the girls stood side by side again — but now with their husbands by their sides. One sweet photo showed the four of them together, beaming with joy. The caption? “we’re team boy 💙” — short, sweet, and straight from the heart. Another photo captured the whole crew — Kayla, Simone, their husbands, and Simone’s sister, Adria, all sharing in the love. The caption read: “you’re so loved baby b 🤍 we can’t wait for your arrival!” A reminder that this baby is already surrounded by nothing but warmth and good vibes.
And let’s not forget Jonathan Owens, who made sure the day was anything but boring. Whether he was striking poses, cracking jokes, or just being the life of the party, his energy lit up the room — proving once again that when the Biles-Owens crew rolls in, the celebration really begins. Need more evidence? This wasn’t just a celebrity attending a baby shower. It was a deeply human moment. One that showcased love, loyalty, and the beauty of showing up for your people. Simone Biles reminded us that behind every icon is a friend who laughs with you, hugs you tight, and celebrates your biggest moments like they’re her own.
