Simone Biles Responds After Going Viral For Wearing Green Bay Merch To Support The Bears

As a sports enthusiast and long-time follower of Simone Biles‘ remarkable career, I must admit that her recent wardrobe choice at a Chicago Bears game left me both amused and intrigued. The Green Bay Packers gear she donned was undeniably bold, especially considering her husband’s role on the Bears team.


This summer, Simone Biles gained media attention due to her extraordinary gymnastic achievements as she qualified for the Paris Summer Olympics. She once more made her nation proud by winning numerous medals and silencing critics in the process. However, following the conclusion of the games, Biles faced criticism for a different reason. The esteemed athlete was spotted at a Chicago Bears preseason game, as her husband is a team member. Biles became viral due to wearing Green Bay Packers merchandise at the home game, and she has since responded to the ensuing discussion.

Sports fans surely know that the Bears and Packers share a storied rivalry. With that, Simone Biles surely stirred the pot when she rolled up to Chicago’s Soldier Field sporting green, yellow and white. Of course, what added insult to injury is the fact that the 27-year-old gymnast’s hubby, Jonathan Owens, plays safety for the Bears. Biles addressed her viral brouhaha while chatting with TMZ Sports and, asked if she bought some Chicago gear, she gave a direct answer:

Yes, I have plenty now! So don’t you worry, guys!

In summary, it appears that the next occasion Bears supporters witness the seven-time gold medalist at a home game, she’ll likely don blue and orange attire. Frankly, her fashion mix-up was a bit uncomfortable. Yet, given her past resilience, it’s clear that the Texan can handle challenges gracefully, as she handled the online criticism from fans with good humor. Furthermore, her cheerful reaction to being asked about Bears merchandise hints at her positive outlook on the situation.
