The Olympics may be over but for Simone Biles the party is just beginning.
Biles, the Olympic all-around champion from the Paris Games, was spotted out in Chicago on Saturday afternoon enjoying herself while her husband – Jonathan Owens – played in a preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
However, it was at that game where she also incurred the wrath of some angry fans for her attire after she committed a fashion – and football – faux pas.
But she brushed off any criticism and after the contest, she and a group of friends all went out for a lavish looking dinner at the restaurant Maple & Ash.
Awaiting Biles at the restaurant was a special menu that displayed the food available for purchase but included the words ‘OLYMPIC F*@KING CHAMPION!’

Biles and her assembled guests also raised their glasses for a toast by the candlelight.
It was a great day out for Biles, but she did attract some attention from Bears fans for one very big no-no in her wardrobe.
She wore a custom jacket with black-and-white printed images of Owens on it. But those pictures were all in the uniform he wore while he played for the Bears’ main rivals – the Green Bay Packers.
As she strolled the sidelines, Biles was also sporting a protective boot on her left foot from a calf injury she endured at the Olympics. She topped off the look with a pair of reflective silver shades, a black Prada bucket hat and a Balenciaga purse.
Despite her attempts to make a touching and supportive gesture towards Owens, Biles found herself wading into one of the league’s fiercest rivalries and fans were far from impressed.
Owens played one season in Green Bay last year before making the move down Lake Michigan to Chicago earlier this year.
As his other half geared up for her quest for gold in Paris, the safety agreed a two-year deal with the Bears believed to be worth $4.5million in March.
The gymnast appeared elated with her partner’s move, celebrating the deal in a series of tweets.
But earlier in the day, Biles incurred the wrath of NFL fans with her fashion choices
‘CHICAGO HERE HE COMES’, she posted before appearing to reveal that she does not plan to make the permanent move with her man.
‘I’m so excited about not having a connecting flight to go and see my husband hahahaha’, she wrote in a follow-up message.
However, despite her initial joy, amid decorating herself with more Olympic medals, it seems Biles has not had time to update her game-day wardrobe.
Owens appears to have settled into his new NFL chapter in Chicago with the franchise even allowing him five days off from preseason training so he could make the journey to Paris to watch his wife at the Olympics.
