Olympic champion Simon Biles is in South Africa for a historic visit, the first one in Africa.
Multiple Olympic gymnastics champion Simone Biles and her husband Jonathan Owens are in South Africa for their honeymoon adventure.
Bile, who boasts of 23 world championships titles, shared multiple photos on her Instagram story, including her and Owens on the safari cart.
The trip to South Africa comes two years after their wedding and the pair was thrilled to see wildlife including the elephant, giraffe and zebras mingling on the field, and afterwards, Biles shared a video of a lion walking past their vehicle.
“Cheers to seeing 3 of the big 5 on our first game drive,’ she wrote with a heart-eyes emoji. ‘Elephant, lion, leopard,” Biles said, sharing a boomerang of her sharing a drink with Owens.
Biles was pivotal for Team USA’s women’s gymnastics squad, racking up three gold medals and a silver across different events at the Paris Olympic Games.

Greats of the current generation of sprinters have earned comparison to Usain Bolt but it is a mystery Jamaican athlete that got the world’s fastest man’s nod.
Biles and Owens appeared to enjoy their romantic getaway away from the rigorous of track and field and the NFL games. Owens tallied 30 solo and 19 assisted tackles in his fourth NFL campaign as the Bears finished 5-12. This was Owens first season with the Chicago Bears.
The pair have gone viral on several occasions in support for each other. The couple celebrated together in Paris as Biles reigned supreme in France. As a sign of solidarity, Biles was spotted watching the NFL and the Chicago Bears in particular as she kept an eye on her husband’s performance.
