- The couple has since left Chicago after Owens signed with the Indianapolis Colts, while their permanent home base remains their newly completed Texas mansion.
Simone Biles says three masked men broke into her Chicago home and made off with her Porsche GTS—and although she eventually got the car back, she's decided she doesn't want it anymore.
The 29-year-old Olympic champion revealed the incident on TikTok on Monday, September 21, while getting ready to shop for a replacement vehicle. According to Biles, the break-in happened during the final months that she and her husband, Jonathan Owens, were based in Chicago, where Owens spent two seasons playing safety for the Bears.
“I feel like I need a new car because during our last few months in Chicago, three men in masks came to our house and stole my Porsche,” Biles said in a TikTok video. “Stole the GTS.”
Biles didn't offer specifics about how the men entered the residence, when the theft occurred, or how authorities recovered the vehicle. She did confirm that the Porsche was returned, captioning her post, “yes we recovered the car, onto the next.”
The gymnast said the full account was a “story for another time,” but revealed the incident led to another addition to the Biles-Owens household: a Doberman.
“The things that happen to me are absolutely insanity,” Biles said. “It’d be really easy for producers to just film regularly. That is one of the reasons why we also got our Doberman.”
It wasn't the couple's only encounter with an attempted theft this year. While Biles and Owens were in Italy for the 2026 Winter Olympics in February, Owens said someone attempted to snatch a shopping bag from him on the street in Milan. The attempt failed because Owens had the bag wrapped around his hand.
“Not somebody just tried to snatch my shopping bag in Milan,” Owens wrote on X at the time, adding that the person “took off running immediately.”
The Chicago chapter of the couple's life has since ended. Owens signed a one-year deal with the Indianapolis Colts in March, and Biles has already been spotted supporting him on the sidelines in Indianapolis. She told People earlier this month that she plans to “officially move” there later in the season after spending much of her time in Houston.
Their permanent home base remains Texas, where Biles and Owens recently finished the custom waterfront mansion they spent years designing and building. The project started with the design process in 2020, broke ground in 2022, and was completed in November 2025.
Biles has since shown off portions of the property, including its massive kitchen, outdoor entertaining area, pool and dedicated spaces for the couple's dogs.
As Owens settles into his first season with Indianapolis, Biles said her priorities are straightforward.
“I’m just excited to watch my husband,” she said. “It doesn’t matter, as long as he’s safe and healthy and he’s having fun, then I don’t care.”
