In a recent TikTok video, Olympic gymnastics champion Simone Biles shared that three masked men broke into her Chicago home and stole her Porsche. Biles, who is married to Indianapolis Colts safety Jonathan Owens, posted the clip on Monday, September 21, recounting the harrowing experience.
"Feel like I need a new car because during our last few months in Chicago, three men in mask[s] came to our house and stole my Porsche," Biles said in the video. "Stole the GTS." She added, "But that's another story. If you guys wanna know, I'll do a 'storytime' on that. I feel like I need a reality TV show. The things that happen to me are absolutely insanity. And so it would be really easy for producers to just film regularly."
The theft was "one of the reasons" Biles and Owens decided to get their Doberman Pinscher, Remi, for protection, she noted. While Biles did not provide further details about the incident, she mentioned that she and Owens recovered the vehicle and were "onto the next." She discussed the matter on social media while preparing to pick up a new car.
USA TODAY reached out to Biles' representatives and the Chicago Police Department for comment but did not receive a response.
In her search for a new car, Biles planned to visit several high-end dealerships, including Porsche, Audi, and Lamborghini, but ultimately found her dream car at Porsche. "Then we went over to Porsche. They had Cayenne GTS, and, baby, when they turn that thing on, I was sold. I felt like Tiffany Haddish from 'Girls Trip,'" Biles said. "'Give it to me, I want it. Give it to me.' So, we never even made it to Lambo."
Moving to Indianapolis
According to a People magazine article, the all-time great gymnast is moving to the Indianapolis area. "I've been in Houston most of the time, so I'm going to officially move there (to Indianapolis) a little bit later," she told the magazine in early September. "So I haven't experienced too much, but the stadium is stunning. It's beautiful. I'm just excited to watch my husband. It doesn't matter, as long as he's safe and healthy and he's having fun, then I don't care."
