The Challenge in Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens’ Relationship Has to Do With a ‘Values Difference’
Simone Biles recently shared a carousel of Instagram photos giving fans a glimpse into how she and her husband, Jonathan Owens, spent the summer months.
The seven-time Olympic gold medalist shared snaps of everything from vacations to pool days to spending time with family and friends, and even a shot from the night they attended Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce‘s wedding, as well as a few other things they squeezed in before the NFL preseason began and Owens went back to work.
Biles has called out online trolls and haters in the past who had something to say about her marriage. But these days she seems unbothered by any outside noise as she and Owens appear to be living their best lives in wedded bliss. And based on their Life Path numbers of 7 (Biles) and Owens (8) they are compatible, the challenge they can run into in their relationship has to do with a difference in values.
According to Numerologist.com, “The 7 thinks the 8’s focus on material success misses what actually matters. The 8 thinks the 7’s retreat into inner life is a sophisticated way of avoiding the world. Both of them are partially right about each other … The 7 who says the 8 over-focuses on material outcomes is not wrong. The 8 who says the 7 uses depth and spirituality as a reason to avoid practical engagement is also not wrong. When both critiques are accurate and both people are defending their positions rather than examining them, the relationship becomes an unresolvable argument about what matters most.
“The way through is for each person to genuinely engage with the other’s orientation, not just coexist with it … The 7+8 relationships that last tend to have a 7 who is not using their inner orientation as a reason to avoid real-world engagement, and an 8 who has developed enough inner depth to understand that what they’re building is in service of something beyond material success. When both people are operating from those more developed positions, the complementarity is real and substantial.
“Both 7 and 8s are serious people who bring full engagement to what they care about. Both are self-contained and don’t need their partner to constantly prop them up. Both tend toward depth in their respective domains — the 7 in the inner world, the 8 in the material world. Both are capable of sustained commitment when they choose it. These shared qualities are the actual foundation of the relationship.”
