Simone Biles calmly and firmly shut down social media commenters asking if she was pregnant with a post on her Instagram Story on Wednesday.

The 26-year-old Olympic gold medalist responded to comments about her appearance in a post, writing, "I hate that I even have to address this."

"But please stop commenting on this photo or my Instagram in general about me being 'pregnant,' " Biles, who tied the knot with Green Bay Packers safety Jonathan Owens earlier this year, wrote.

She ended the post by making it as clear as possible, and writing, "I'm not pregnant."

Biles also shared the post in question in her Story, which was a carousel of photos of the gymnast at MetLife Stadium for the Packers' Monday night matchup against the New York Giants.

"Monday Night Football," Biles wrote in the caption, which was originally posted to her feed on Tuesday.

Owens' Packers fell to the Giants 22-24 on Monday, but Biles couldn't be more proud of her husband. She sported a black beanie with his No. 34 to represent the NFL player, and she's been a vocal supporter of his team throughout the season.

When Biles was in attendance at the team's recent win over the the Kansas City Chiefs 27-19, she shared a series of photos on Instagram, where she’s seen alongside the Packers’ safety and cheering for him on the sidelines.

"To a packers win babyyyyy," she wrote.

Biles and Owens got legally married at a courthouse in April, just one month before tying the knot again in an elaborate ceremony in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Since then, the two have remained long distance as Owens signed with the Packers in May, after previously playing for their hometown Houston Texans.

Throughout their long-distance marriage, Biles has attended several of Owens’ games. She shared in an interview on the Today show in October that she enjoys watching her new husband from the sidelines.

“It’s been really fun supporting what he loves to do,” she added. “Obviously, he’s in Green Bay right now so my season just ended. I’m super excited to get out there to Green Bay for the holidays to support him.”

She also shared how her perspective on gymnastics has changed since getting married.

“Gymnastics is just something I get to come in and have the privilege of doing. I don’t feel like it’s the end all be all anymore, as before I kind of felt like that," she explained at the time. “I get to go home to my husband, to my dogs, to my house and all of the things. So it feels really good.”
