One of their biggest accomplishments, though, may just come away from the turf and balance beam. The couple

In a video posted to TikTok, Biles offered a tear-filled goodbye to her beloved home. In what took nearly five years to custom-build, Biles and Owens moved into their beautiful 3,998-square-foot property in a gated community near Houston, Texas, in 2020.

“This house will be on the market for the first time, and I don’t know why I’m boohoo crying,” Biles said. “I was here for six years, and I feel like there were just so many good memories, so many bad memories. “But I feel like I grew up in this house. It’s made me a real adult, so I’m going to miss it. I didn’t think I’d be emotional about a house.”

Biles, 29, a native of Columbus, Ohio, grew up in the foster care system when her birth mother was unable to care for her or her three siblings. She moved to Texas and was adopted by her maternal grandfather, Ron Biles, and his second wife, Nellie Cayetano Biles, in 2000.

She met Owens, 31, on a dating app in March 2020 when he was playing football for the Houston Texans. They moved in together a short time later.

“Whoever buys this house, I hope it brings you as much joy as it did for me,” she said.

The house was listed at $1.275 million.

In her video, Biles gave a quick tour of the four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home that featured a spacious kitchen and a waterfall island with quartz countertops, according to the Houston Association of Realtors.

The couple was used to moving around the country, although they still maintained this home while Owens was playing for several NFL teams.

Owens, a Missouri native, went undrafted after playing college football at Missouri Western University from 2013-17. In 2018, he signed a free-agent deal with the Arizona Cardinals. He played for the Texans from 2019-22. He spent one year with the Green Bay Packers in 2023, played with the Chicago Bears from 2024-25 and has been with the Colts on a one-year contract.

As an Olympic gymnast. Biles has collected seven gold medals, two silver medals and two bronze medals.

Biles and Owens were married in April 2023.

In September, Biles posted on social media that another home she lived in while in Chicago was broken into, and her car was stolen.

Biles said the vehicle, a Porsche GTS, was later recovered, but she and her husband decided to replace it. She also indicated that the couple acquired a Doberman after the incident.
