Simone Biles defended her invite to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Madison Square Garden wedding after a social media troll questioned why she was there.
The gymnast attended Friday’s star-studded affair with husband Jonathon Owens and shared snaps of her dramatic wedding look on Instagram Monday.
However, one user commented, “When has Simone Biles and Taylor Swift even spoken to each other?😂”
But the 11-time Olympic medalist replied to the troll, writing, “remember this, I only show y’all what I want y’all to know.”
“the perfect love story, followed by the perfect nighTT ❣️,” Biles captioned her upload, referencing Swift’s song “Love Story,” as well as the couple’s monogram insignia of interlocking T’s that was seen on several pieces of wedding decor and the invite.
Although Swift and Biles have kept their friendship out of the spotlight, they have both supported each other publicly in the past.

The decorated gymnast used Swift’s track “Ready for It” for part of her floor routine in the 2024 U.S. Olympic Gymnastics Trials.
The routine prompted a response from Swift on X, who wrote in reaction to a video of the routine posted by the NBC Olympics & Paralympics account, “Watched this so many times and still unready. She’s ready for it tho👏👏👏🥇🇺🇸❤.”
The pop star also voiced her support for Biles in 2021 as she returned to competition at the Tokyo Olympics after pulling out of many events due to the “twisties.” At the time, the Grammy winner narrated a video about Biles for NBC’s coverage of the games.
Biles responded to the video on X, “I’m crying 🥺🤍 how special. I love you @taylorswift13.”
Swift and Kelce, both 36, wed in front of over 1,000 guests at the famed New York City venue Friday evening.
For the lavish soirée, Biles wore a Đỗ Long gown made of burgundy leather, tulle and jewels, boasting a high neck, halter shoulders and waistline cutout.
Her husband wore a matching burgundy velvet tux. The NFL star posted a carousel of photos of their show-stopping looks as well.
“What a night ❤️ So grateful to be able to witness such a beautiful ceremony with so many amazing people. We love to celebrate love, a night we’ll truly never forget 🤞🏽 Congratulations to the couple!!! #T&T,” he captioned the Sunday post.
Other famous guests in attendance include Selena Gomez, Miranda Lambert, Ed Sheeran, Karlie Kloss, Gigi Hadid, Bradley Cooper, and many more.
A majority of the couple’s guests partied at the luxe wedding celebration until the wee hours of the morning.
