The essentials
Career · Love & family · Business · The numbers
Simone Biles has the medals, sponsors and mainstream reach of a global sports star. What the public record does not provide is a complete list of her assets, debts, taxes or endorsement terms. This profile therefore keeps the familiar net-worth estimate separate from documented earnings and event economics.
01 / The breakthrough
From a Texas gym to the sport’s record book
Biles was born in Columbus, Ohio, and raised near Houston. She began gymnastics after a daycare field trip and reached the senior international level in 2013. Her first world all-around title that year was the breakthrough; by Paris 2024, Team USA recorded 11 Olympic and 30 World Championship medals. Team USA — Simone Biles profile · NBC Olympics — Simone Biles biography
Tokyo 2021 became a different kind of career marker. Biles withdrew from several finals while dealing with the twisties, then returned to win balance-beam bronze. She resumed elite competition in 2023 and won three golds and a silver in Paris in 2024. That sequence is central to her public profile and commercial appeal, but it does not disclose a contract value.
02 / Love & family
Jonathan Owens is her husband
Biles married NFL player Jonathan Owens in a Houston courthouse ceremony on April 22, 2023, followed by a destination celebration in Mexico. Current sports biographies continue to identify Owens as her husband. NBC Olympics — Simone Biles biography
She was raised by her maternal grandfather Ron Biles and his wife Nellie, whom she calls her parents. That family history is relevant to the person behind the public career; it is not evidence about ownership of assets or household wealth.
This profile does not repeat pregnancy speculation or infer children from social posts. There is no need to turn an information gap into gossip: the current, sourced relationship status is the useful fact.
03 / The money
Most of the visible money comes from sponsorships
Celebrity Net Worth publishes a $25 million estimate. It does not provide an audited balance sheet or enough asset-level detail for us to verify the total independently, so the headline answer remains ‘not independently established.’ Celebrity Net Worth — Simone Biles
Forbes estimated that Biles earned $11.2 million during calendar 2024: $0.2 million on-field and $11 million off-field. This is an annual earnings estimate, not the amount she retained after agents, training costs and taxes, and not her net worth. Forbes — highest-paid female athletes 2024
Using the medal-bonus rates reported for each Games, her Olympic results imply $110,000 for Rio, $37,500 for Tokyo and $135,000 for Paris — $282,500 in total. This is our arithmetic from medal counts and published USOPC rates; it excludes other grants, appearance fees and sponsor bonuses.

Billboard reported $19.3 million in gross revenue for the 2021 Gold Over America Tour. Gross ticket revenue belongs to the whole production before venue costs, promoter economics, payroll and Biles’s contract; it cannot be treated as her payday. AEG’s 2024 announcement confirms her headlining role but discloses no compensation. Billboard — Gold Over America Tour · AEG — Gold Over America Tour announcement

Prize bonuses, annual income and a tour’s ticket gross measure different things. Our methodology keeps those figures separate rather than adding them into a homemade fortune.
