Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens had no interest in blending in with the crowd and instead arrived wearing some eye-catching attire for the glamorous fashion event.

The Olympic gold medalist opted for a tailored blue mini dress with a white collar and a huge flowing blue train, whereas on the other hand, her hubby donned a coordinating all-white suit with a matching fur cape, and a black cane to fit the 'Superfine' theme for 2025, the outlet reported.

Interestingly, Biles and Owens also attended the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, May 3, in similar bold outfits, before heading to the Met Gala. The couple wore matching purple outfits at Churchill Downs.

They were also hit by pregnancy rumors after Simone spoke about her and Jonathan's desire to have children together.

"I've always wanted to be a mother, have kids, and just like [Owens], he's always wanted to be a dad, so it's just really exciting," Biles said, per Daily Mail.

Her statement sparked pregnancy rumors, but Biles took to Threads to debunk them. She stated, "I am not pregnant, I never was pregnant therefore I never had a baby. Please stop asking me and falling for AI."

The Met Gala theme, 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style', is an homage to menswear centered around "sartorial style" in forming Black identities.
