Simone Biles has continued to attend Indianapolis Colts games to support her husband, Jonathan Owens, and wish him luck before kickoff. During the latest pregame interaction, however, their familiar handshake ritual left Owens visibly embarrassed.
The couple’s pregame handshake has become an almost routine part of Colts game days. It typically ends with Owens giving Biles a playful tap on the butt.
This time, Owens appeared to avoid the final gesture because Biles’ brother was also on the field. He seemingly felt it would be inappropriate to do it in front of him.
Biles, meanwhile, appeared ready for the customary ending and insisted on keeping the ritual intact. Her determination made the moment even more awkward for Owens as he prepared for the game.

2025 Formula 1 world champion Lando Norris says he would be “proud” to spend his entire F1 career with McLaren after committing his future to the team until the end of the 2030 season.
The 26-year-old has signed a four-year contract extension with the Woking-based outfit. Speaking to Sky Sports about the possibility of racing into his 40s and remaining with McLaren throughout his career, Norris said he was uncertain how long he would continue competing in Formula 1 but reaffirmed his commitment to the team.
“Oh, I don’t know if I want to get to 40. It’s a big ask to get to 30, so we’ll see. I don’t know what the future holds,”
He added:
“I certainly want to believe what it holds, and I still believe that we can win more as a team and win more constructors’ and more drivers’ championships, and that’s why I want to stay here.
“But they are also the only team I’ve ever been with, and the team that I love and I call this place my home. So, if I do end up just doing my whole career at McLaren, that’s something I’ll be so proud to say and carry with me through the rest of my life.”
Norris played down immediate comparisons with the lengthy Formula 1 careers of Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton, saying his focus is currently on the four-year extension he has just signed.
“I don’t know what point I want to go to as a driver, whether I want to be 30, or 40, or 50. I don’t know that yet,”
He continued:
“So, I’m just very, very pleased to announce I’ll be here for four more years and four more years fighting for wins and championships, hopefully.”
Norris is currently fourth in the drivers’ championship with 159 points after securing back-to-back victories at the Hungarian and Dutch Grands Prix.
