<p>Soon after <strong>Simone Biles</strong> shared her wedding news, the <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/watch-mother-reacts-to-critics-after-cutting-off-her-daughters-hair-online-and-saying-shes-not-a-victim/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hair-obsessed critics</a> entered the conversation. They gave no energy to celebrating the Black love between Biles and husband <strong>Jonathan Owens</strong>&#8211;instead choosing to focus on Biles&#8217; &#8216;sweated-out&#8217; edges.</p>
<p>On Monday, <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/simone-biles-becomes-the-youngest-person-to-receive-the-presidential-medal-of-freedom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Simone clapped</a> back at the ongoing conversation&#8211;and her energy is seemingly giving &#8216;unbothered by the bothered.&#8217;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I think they also forget I live in HOUSTON TEXAS &; I sweat those out!!! Soon as we stepped outside for pics. But they can keep complaining idc idc idc,&#8221; Simone replied to a tweet defending her.</p></blockquote>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">What We Know About Simone Biles&#8217;s Upcoming Second Wedding Ceremony</h3>
<p>As mentioned, just days ago, Biles and Owens tied the knot in a courthouse, with Judge Jay Karahan officiating the ceremony.</p>
<p>However, Biles told fans <a href="https://www.instagram.com/simonebiles/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">on Insta-Story</a> that the courthouse wedding was a required step for their destination wedding. Though she didn&#8217;t reveal a location or a date, Simone said the ceremony is happening in a few weeks with between 135 to 140 guests.</p>
<p>Like their first wedding and engagement shoot, the destination ceremony will feature neutral colors, including champagne, gold, and white decor.</p>
<p>Now, the married couple is just &#8220;waiting on a few passports.&#8221;</p>
<p>On April 14, Biles shared a photo featuring Owens and their Texan marriage license to her Instagram feed.</p>
<p><amp-instagram data-shortcode="CrCa9JsN3lX" layout="responsive" width="600" height="600" data-captioned></amp-instagram></p>
<p>Over the weekend, she and Jonathan appeared in posted photographs with plastered smiles and laughs in pictures. Taken at the courthouse, the newlyweds were dressed in semi-traditional wedding attire.</p>
<p>Simone wore a white, tiered dress with a V-neckline and low-cut back. The hair that has caused all the online chatter was styled in a high ponytail. She accessorized with white heels and a small necklace, and diamond earrings.</p>
<p>Jonathan wore a tan-colored suit paired with white leather loafers and a fresh braided &#8216;do.</p>
<p><amp-instagram data-shortcode="CrWGBcEOK9C" layout="responsive" width="600" height="600" data-captioned></amp-instagram></p>
