Top 10 highest-paid female athletes in the world (2024) - Track and Field stars missing
Track and field stars for another year running aren't on the list of the Top 10 highest-paid female athletes in the world 2024. Should this be a cause of worry?
What happened
Biles is the most accomplished gymnast of all time, having won four Olympic gold medals. She is the most decorated athlete in the history of the sport, with 29 gold medals; yet, her spouse claims to have been unaware of her at the time of their meeting, which angered many people.
Owens is a sports star in his own right while being a far lesser-known figure. The 28-year-old American football player is presently employed by the Green Bay Packers as a safety.
After dating Biles for more than two years, Owens and Biles got married in April of this year. Speaking about the beginning of their relationship, the NFL star made some interesting remarks.

Owens and his wife were on the Pivot podcast when he said that he was unaware of Bile's incredible achievements in gymnastics at first. He also revealed that the superstar gymnast did the chasing at the start of the relationship and that he kept his cards close to his chest in the beginning due to his fear of committing.
The couple react
Pitchforks are out to be levelled at Simone's husband for what they view as denigration, as many X users have done after the pair's Pivot podcast footage went viral online.
In their opinion, Owens failed to preserve the reputation of his more renowned wife, as he portrayed her as the one who initiated the relationship.
As stated earlier, Biles was seated during the podcast as well, but in sharp contrast to the vitriolic response online, she was grinning ear-to-ear, seemingly enjoying her husband’s storytelling.
Biles evidently took no offence to Owen's tale and has reinforced that with a post on Instagram of herself and the NFL star in a goofy pose, with the caption “mood.”
Owens himself reacted on Instagram, sharing a picture of himself and his wife with the caption “Unbothered 😂❤️ Just know we locked in over here.”
