Two years after saying “I do”, Olympic icon Simone Biles and NFL star Jonathan Owens have finally embarked on their much-anticipated honeymoon.
The couple, who tied the knot in April 2023, has chosen the stunning landscapes of South Africa for their romantic getaway.
They have been delighting fans with breathtaking snapshots of their adventure, capturing unforgettable moments from their trip.
Biles kicked off the excitement by sharing a series of Instagram stories, including a sweet picture of the pair sharing a kiss on the plane, followed by glimpses of their luxurious honeymoon suite.
Wasting no time, the couple immediately immersed themselves in the local wildlife experience upon arrival.
Their first game drive introduced them to Africa’s majestic animals, including elephants, giraffes, and leopards.
One particularly thrilling encounter took place when a lion strolled dangerously close to their safari vehicle.
The moment left Biles stunned, prompting her to humorously confess in her Instagram story, "Not gonna lie, I almost s**t myself."
Beyond the adrenaline-fueled adventures, the couple has also taken the opportunity to unwind.
They enjoyed relaxing couples’ massages and sipped on cocktails while taking in the breathtaking scenery.
Adding to the magic of their trip, Biles shared a heartwarming snapshot of herself appearing to feed an elephant, captioning it, "Consider this my postcard from South Africa."
Their honeymoon follows a busy stretch in their professional lives.
Biles recently cemented her status as one of the greatest athletes in history with multiple medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics, while Owens secured a spot with the Chicago Bears.
