Olympian Simone Biles posted pictures from the star-studded New York City wedding of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. In the photos, she and her spouse, NFL player Jonathan Owens, are dressed tastefully for the event.

The star-studded celebration also featured an A-list guest list that included Ed Sheeran, Bradley Cooper, and Selena Gomez, with Adam Sandler serving as the wedding officiant, according to USA Today.

In her social media pictures uploaded on July 6, Biles and Owens are seen in matching elegant burgundy outfits for the occasion.

Simone Biles has hit back at social media users questioning why she was invited to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s star-studded wedding, making it clear that fans only see a small part of her personal life.

The seven-time Olympic gold medallist attended the lavish ceremony at New York City’s Madison Square Garden with her husband, NFL player Jonathan Owens. After sharing a carousel of photos from the celebration on Instagram, one commenter questioned her connection to the newlyweds.

Biles wore a dramatic burgundy and metallic haute couture gown by Vietnamese designer Đỗ Long, while Owens coordinated in a matching velvet tuxedo. She captioned her Instagram post from the event: “The perfect love story, followed by the perfect nighTT.”

“When has Simone Biles and Taylor Swift even spoken to each other?” the user asked.

Biles wasted little time responding, writing:

“Remember this, I only show y’all what I want y’all to know.”

Her reply quickly drew praise from fans, many of whom pointed out that Biles and Swift have shared a supportive friendship for years. Biles famously used Swift’s hit “…Ready for It?” during her floor routine at the 2024 US Olympic Gymnastics Trials, prompting Swift to publicly praise the gymnast’s performance. The pair have also exchanged supportive messages on social media over the years.

Swift and Kelce’s wedding drew around 1,000 guests from the worlds of music, sport and entertainment, with attendees including Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, George and Claire Kittle, Selena Gomez, Jennifer Lopez and Paul McCartney. The ceremony was one of the most talked-about celebrity events of the year, with guests reportedly enjoying a night of live performances, personalised details and luxury touches throughout the evening.

Biles’ response also highlighted a broader point about celebrity friendships and privacy. While public figures often share moments from their lives online, many of their closest relationships remain out of view. For Biles, the message was simple: not everything needs to be explained to the internet.

The gymnast has long been admired for her willingness to speak candidly on social media, whether addressing criticism, defending her choices or celebrating her achievements. Her latest reply was no exception, serving as a reminder that even the most visible stars are entitled to keep parts of their lives private.

For fans of both Biles and Swift, the exchange was another example of the mutual respect between two of the biggest names in sport and music. And for anyone still wondering why Biles was on the guest list, her answer made one thing clear, some friendships do not need to be performed for public approval.
