Simone Biles' husband Jonathan Owens shares 4-word reaction to first taxi-hailing experience during Los Angeles trip

Simone Biles' husband, Jonathan Owens, shared a humorous moment from his January 2025 trip to Los Angeles. The NFL player documented his first-ever experience hailing a taxi.

In the video, Owens stands in a lively Los Angeles street, framed by brick buildings and dim streetlights. The yellow cab's headlights slice through the urban night. The couple visited LA in January 2025 for the gymnast's surprise appearance on Hoda Kotb's last show on Today. Kotb bid an emotional farewell to the Today Show and ended her 26-year career with NBC News.

The 29-year-old posted the video of his taxi-hailing debut on Instagram, alongside a four-word caption:

"First time for everything.Taxiiiiiiiii"

Biles has made a lasting impact in the world of sports. Widely regarded as one of the greatest gymnasts in history, the Olympic champion has earned a total of 11 Olympic medals, including 7 golds, 2 silvers and 2 bronzes, spanning the 2016 Rio Olympics and 2024 Paris Olympics. She has also accumulated 30 World Championship medals, with 23 golds, four silvers and three bronzes.

Although Biles was scheduled for a surprise appearance on the show, her husband, Owens, accompanied her to support her during a non-athletic event. The couple consistently supports each other, both during games and non-game occasions. Recently, the Olympian shared how she prepares for her husband's game day outfits.

Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens are known for their strong mutual support, consistently cheering each other on in their athletic careers. In 2024, Owens took a break from Chicago Bears training to travel to Paris to support his wife during the 2024 Olympic Games.

The gymnast reciprocated this support by attending Owens' NFL games and often sharing her enthusiasm on social media. The couple frequently wears custom apparel with each other's names or photos during games.

In a December 2024 interview with Olympics.com, Biles revealed how she prepares her outfits for her husband's game days. She explained that she collaborates with designers and creators, giving them the freedom to craft unique clothing.

“I reach out to some of the creators that make the apparel, and I have no ideas. I let them kind of freeball it, and I say, 'Surprise me.' And then that's how I piece them together,” she said (via people.com).
