Simone Biles is savoring every moment leading up to her big day at the altar. To express her joy over being engaged, the gymnast recently shared sweet photos [2] with her close friend and fellow fiancée, interior designer Kayla Simone, on Instagram. In each shot, Biles and Simone flash their sparkling engagement rings while sitting side by side on a swing, clad in identical "bride" sweatshirts and matching white Nike Air Force 1 sneakers. "Like Beyoncé, but with an F," the caption states.

Fans greeted the heartwarming post with enthusiasm. "Y'all will both be beautiful brides, but I pray amazing marriages on you," one user wrote. Another echoed the sentiment, writing, "both going to be the most beautiful brides !! can't wait to celebrate y'all."

Biles got engaged [3] to her boyfriend of over a year, Houston Texans player Jonathan Owens, on Valentine's Day. Owens proposed with an oval-shaped engagement ring [4] estimated to contain between seven to nine carats. A month into her engagement, Biles shared she found her wedding dress [5] during a visit to the Galia Lahav flagship store in Los Angeles. She's also since scooped up a second (silicone) engagement ring [6] to wear while working out.

Simone, meanwhile, got engaged to Ira Brandon III in September 2021 with a pear-shaped diamond. Biles, who was in attendance [7], witnessed the surprise go down. Simone wrote at the time, "What a blessing it is to love and be loved by all of you." In her Instagram [8] post that day, Biles said, "MY BESTIE SAID YESSSSS." She added, "Now she's the cutest Feyoncé!!!!!"
