In a photo shared on her Instagram stories, she celebrated her husband, Jonathan Owens, who accompanied her on a doctor's appointment on his birthday. 

The photo is black and white and shows Biles in what appears to be a medical office, wearing a hair net and a hospital gown.  "His birthday but he takes me to get my procedure," she wrote over the story. "I woke up singing bossman dlow."

The post comes a month after Biles experienced a frightening health scare. In June 6th, Biles shared various updates through her Instagram stories. “I’m not one to normally share things like this because I value privacy in today’s age,” she wrote. “But almost dying wasn’t on my bingo card earlier this week.”

“This was one of, if not the scariest experience of my life. Especially since Jonathan was in Indy for practices,” she continued.

“I’ve been in bed resting this week, I’ll explain sooner or later but s/o to my close circle who reached out, checked in, visited & or sent flowers,” Biles concluded. “Loooovveeee y’all.”

Biles hasn't shared any more details. When a fan asked her about what had happened to her in the comments section, she wrote, “Not ready to talk about it just yet."

What Biles has been up to

Despite the health scare, Biles has been enjoying her life over the past couple of months, going on summer vacations in Belize while also attending various events alongside her husband. 

In photos shared throughout June and July, she hosted a pajama party with her closest girlfriends and attended parties with Owens. Their most recent appearance together was at the ESPYS, hosted in New York earlier this month. 

The couple got married in April 2023, after dating since 2020. They are enjoying Owens' time off. At the start of the season, he'll be playing for the Indiana Colts. The couple is planning on relocating there in the near future.
