#2 Nikki Bella told Cena he is a rare case
Following her breakup with John Cena, Nikki Bella confessed she called him after all of her dates.
The former WWE Superstar admitted to People magazine in January 2019 that she found Cena's attitude towards her going out with other people a little surprising. She told him that he is a rare case.
"The one thing is, John’s never been a jealous man. That’s one bone he doesn’t have, which I’m like, you’re so rare."
On an episode of The Bellas Podcast in August 2019, a fan asked Nikki about her feelings towards Cena. The WWE Hall of Famer confessed that she has an unconditional love for her ex-fiancé.
"I do feel like John is a soulmate of mine. [Brie Bella is] one. I do feel like Artem is one. I really feel a soulmate connection with [Artem] and with John. And we both have said this. I have unconditional love for him."
Nikki then spoke about why their relationship did not work out. She admitted her marriage to Cena would have turned out to be different from what she desired.
"We were such a great couple, but our lives didn’t work. And that’s what I think– sometimes people, when they get into marriage, they don’t realize that marriage is beyond just loving someone. You are joining a life together. It’s a partnership. It’s so many things that those are things, unfortunately, you have to look at and I look at my marriage just being different than what John and I were gonna have."
Nikki Bella and Artem Chigvintsev announced their engagement in January 2020. The former Divas Champion revealed on Instagram that she had already said yes two months earlier but kept it a secret. In May 2020, Nikki told the "Big Demi Energy" podcast that they had decided to postpone their wedding due to their child’s arrival.
The WWE Hall of Famer and her partner are currently considering holding their wedding on the Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend, as Nikki told US.
