Last month, Biles opened up to PEOPLE about how her boyfriend, who won't be able to cheer her on at the Olympics in person due to Japan's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, has been supporting her throughout her preparations.
"Oh, he's always so supportive," she said.
"Even if I wake up in the morning and I'm like, 'I'm tired, do I have to go,' jokingly, he's like 'Don't say that! You can do it, this is your dream!'" she continued. "He's always, always so helpful and making sure I stay on top of my therapy and all of that."

Added Biles: "He's the best because he also goes through it [as an athlete], so he knows exactly how it is in the process. It's been amazing to have him."
In Tokyo, Biles is pursuing Olympic gold in her second Summer Games alongside fellow Team USA gymnastics squad — Jordan Chiles, Sunisa Lee, and Grace McCallum. Meanwhile, Owens is in Texas prepping for his NFL preseason and his fourth year with the Texans.
