Owens and Biles both shared posts on Instagram following the engagement, and Owens claims Biles was genuinely surprised by his proposal .
The gymnast says the proposal was met with "THE EASIEST YES," adding that she "can’t wait to spend forever & ever with you, you’re everything I dreamed of and more! let’s get married FIANCÉ."
Biles, 24, started dating the 26-year-old Owens in late summer 2020. The four-time Olympic gold-medal winner won silver in women's team gymnastics and bronze on the balance beam at this summer's Olympics and holds seven Olympic medals in total.
The Ohio-born Biles moved to Houston at a young age. The St. Louis-born Owens arrived in Houston in 2019, having started his NFL career with the Arizona Cardinals.
