Jonathan and Simone were spotted courtside as the Chicago Bulls played against the Minnesota Timberwolves at the United Center. The Chicago Bears safety put an arm around his wife as she leaned in close, clearly relishing the time they shared together after weeks of traveling.

She wore classic Chicago Bulls colors: a pair of red hot knee high boots and a black leather bomber jacket, as well as a quilted Chanel handbag for a touch of luxury. Meanwhile, Jonathan opted for an opposite vibe of a cream jacket over a white shirt with neutral-toned pants.

As if courtside tickets weren't enough of a luxury, the couple were blessed to receive personalized Chicago Bulls jerseys with the number 36 on both; they smiled as they flashed the shirts at the camera, clearly happy.

It was certainly an emotional week for Simone, who said a tearful goodbye to her teammates as her national tour finished on November 3. She shared a number of selfies from the airport, as she shed some tears while holding a mimosa.

Meanwhile, Simone visited him on September 29 when the Chicago Bears played — and beat the Los Angeles Rams. 

Jonathan said of her visit: "She has a tour stop here that evening at 7. Literally perfect. So, she can come to the game at 12 and then boom, I'll get to go watch her at 7. Pretty dope turnaround."

Simone and Jonathan are now used to having long distance moments in their relationship. The couple tied the knot in April 2023, after which Jonathan had to fly to Green Bay, where he joined the Green Bay Packers.
