Nikki Bella and Artem Chigvintsev get married: 'We both can't stop smiling'
The couple announced the news on social media Monday.
"Dancing with the Stars" sweethearts Nikki Bella and Artem Chigvintsev have tied the knot.
In a joint Instagram post on Monday, the couple shared the news that they got married with a photo of a close-up of their wedding rings and another photo of the two of them looking out on the Seine River in Paris with the Eiffel Tower in the distance.
"We can't wait to share the entire journey with you all," they wrote, announcing that it will be featured in a four-part event called "Nikki Bella Says I Do" on E!.
The professional wrestler met Chigvintsev in 2017 when she was partnered up with him on season 25 of "Dancing with the Stars." At the time, Bella was engaged to "Peacemaker" actor and professional wrestler John Cena, but the two called it quits in 2018.
Bella retired from wrestling in 2019 due to a neck injury and has focused on business pursuits as well as serving as judge on "America's Got Talent: Extreme" last year. Chigvintsev won "Dancing with the Stars" alongside Kaitlyn Bristowe two years ago in season 29 and finished sixth last season with Melora Hardin. He'll be back for season 31 next month.
In 2019, Bella confirmed her relationship with Chigvintsev during an episode of "Total Bellas." For the couple, who share a son, getting married in France was special because it's where Chigvintsev popped the question.
"We both can't stop smiling," Bella wrote in her Instagram stories following the news of her marriage. "I never want this feeling to end. I will love you forever and ever Mr. Chigvintsev."
