The NFL, ESPN, and other sports outlets shared photos and videos of the sweet moment on Instagram, sparking a range of reactions from online users. One person commented, “The spank at the end tells me they’re gonna last.”
Another humorously suggested, “Don’t do that in public lol,” while a third person noted that the gesture was “more than a handshake.” SportsCenter posted the full video on Facebook, which led to even more reactions.
A Facebook user commented, “You see how she looks at him with admiration and love in her eyes. Take notes, ladies.” Another user, less approving, responded, “I thought that was cute until she put her booty out there for him to slap. You’re a world record holder lady and a role model for young ladies.”
Agreeing with this, someone else wrote, “Keep it off the field,” while a supporter shared, “I like that handshake. I’m stealing that one.” A fan added, “Ok Simone…she [is] not shy at all.”

The Chicago Bears posted a reel of the handshake on Facebook, prompting mixed reactions. One person expressed disapproval, saying, “That went from cute to tacky, the man is literally on his job,” while another agreed, commenting, “Everything was cool until the unnecessary pat on the butt.” On the other hand, a fan praised the couple, saying, “I love how she’s his biggest cheerleader!”
When SportsCenter shared a video of the couple on the field, an X user commented, “I love the handshake soo cute,” while another jokingly suggested, “get a room!” Meanwhile, someone else highlighted a different aspect, remarking, “The look of love is in their eyes. Beautiful.”

Despite the emotional moment, the handshake couldn’t help Owens’ team clinch a victory at the U.S. Bank Stadium. They were defeated 30-12 by the Minnesota Vikings. This marked the Bears’ eighth consecutive loss, largely due to an outmatched offense and a struggling defense. Jonathan Owens’ team is scheduled to play against the Detroit Lions on Sunday, December 22, 2024.
