Tears rapidly filled Simon Biles  eyes and quietly traced their way down her cheeks, blurring her subtle makeup.It seems like this 2-year marriage of pretense and estrangement  coming to an end…

Simone Biles has broken up with her husband of nearly two years.

In a new cover story for Vogue, the 26-year-old gymnast revealed she and Jonathan owen called it quits .

“It’s hard being young and having that long of a relationship and then ending it,” the four-time gold medalist said of the breakup. “But it was for the best.”

The pair began dating in the summer of 2017. According to People, the pair formed a love connection after Biles’ grandmother (and adopted mother) loved how he played football.

It may have been the first romantic relationship ever for the then 20-year-old gymnast. She told Entertainment Tonight in April of that year, “I have never had a boyfriend in my life. At 20 years old I feel like you should have gone through those things and gone on dates. I have been on like, maybe one proper date.”
