The negative attention was met with a swift and passionate response from Owens, who took to his own social media accounts to set the record straight.

Owens, known for his strong support of Biles both personally and professionally, posted a message condemning the fan’s comment and defending Biles’ character.

He emphasized that Biles is a remarkable athlete and individual who deserves respect and appreciation.

Owens’ post read, “Simone Biles has always been a role model and an inspiration.

To see her being attacked like this is unacceptable. She’s one of the kindest, most dedicated people I know, and she deserves nothing but support.”
