Black Stars fitness coach has sadly passed on

According to reports, Ghana’s senior male national team’s fitness coach, Romeo Ricky Roy, has passed away.

The tragic event is reported to have occurred on Sunday, April 28, 2024, though it is still unknown what specifically caused him to pass away.

Roy had reportedly complained of being sick, but he passed away before he could get better, according to a report.

The late Roy saved a player’s life during a Division One League match between Vision FC and Agbozume four years ago, and that was when he became well-known.

The Vision FC-employed fitness coach assisted in saving left-back Benjamin Aloma when he passed out on the field after a head-on collision.

After Milovan Rajevac returned to the Black Stars in late 2020, Roy was added to the team’s backroom staff.

Since then, he has collaborated with Chris Hughton and Otto Addo, serving as a member of the coaching staff at the recent 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in the Ivory Coast as well as the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

Meanwhile, since Roy’s tragic death was confirmed, condolences have been flooding the football community.

Simone Biles says she ‘broke down’ after husband Jonathan Owens’ viral interview: It ‘really hurt’

Simone Biles admitted that the backlash her husband, Jonathan Owens, faced following his viral interview on the “Pivot” podcast took a serious toll on her mental health. 

In December 2023, the NFL player caused controversy online after claiming he didn’t know who Biles — the most decorated gymnast of all time — was before they started dating.

Then, when asked how he managed to snag the Olympic athlete, Owens said he was more of a “catch” than the seven-time Olympic champion. 

“I always say that the men are the catch,” the 28-year-old said.

The gymnast’s comments sections were filled with fans telling her to “divorce” the football player. 

Social media users were quick to slam the former Green Bay Packers player for seemingly implying that he was a bigger catch than Biles, who was present during the interview. 

However, Biles explained on Wednesday’s episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast that Owens “never said [she] wasn’t a catch.”

“He said he was a catch,” the 27-year-old exclaimed. “Because he is! I’ve never met a man like him.”

However, Biles insisted that her husband was not trying to put her down. 

“I thought everything was OK, and then I go on Twitter and everybody’s like, ‘Divorce this man. He’s mean!’” Biles recalled. “I’m like, ‘He’s the sweetest. He praises the ground that I walk on.’ Truly, I’ve never met a man like him … he truly goes out of his way to do anything for me.”

Although Biles initially found the situation funny, it eventually started to take a toll on her.

“I thought it was hilarious at first and then it hurt my feelings,” she admitted. “One night I broke down and I’m like, ‘Why are you guys talking about my husband like this? You don’t know him. You don’t know who he is and if anybody’s met him, you know he’s the sweetest guy, will do anything for anybody.’”

She continued, “That really hurt that they were talking about my husband like that. For me, it’s like, talk about me all you want, but don’t come for my family, never.”

Although Biles was hurting deep down, she put on a brave face throughout the drama, subtly clapping back at the online haters. 

“🤞🏾💋 for life,” she commented beneath Owens’ Instagram post captioned, “Unbothered 😂❤️ Just know we locked in over here 🤞🏽.”
