Former WWE Superstar Nikki Bella has filed for divorce from Artem Chigvintsev. He was arrested for domestic violence, weeks before she decided to separate. Their marriage lasted for two years, and they have a son together named Matteo.
According to TMZ, Artem Chigvintsev was arrested on August 29 for felony corporal injury to one’s spouse. It was reported that a visible injury to Nikki Bella triggered his arrest. The former Women’s Champion was already looking for a divorce lawyer after he was arrested, and she found one in Evan Craig Itzkowitz.
Nikki Bella had already taken off her wedding ring while she was boarding her private jet. The couple met on the set of Dancing with the Stars in 2017. However, they didn’t start dating until she and John Cena broke up once and for all in 2018. They got engaged in 2020 and tied the knot two years later in Paris.
Speaking about her WWE career, Nikki wrestled her last match in the Royal Rumble at the namesake event in 2022. A few months ago, she mentioned the possibility of joining Tony Khan‘s AEW after Mercedes Mone signed a lucrative deal with the company. Only time will tell if fans will see her step into the ring once more.
