#3. WWE Superstar Paige and Alberto Del Rio

After ending her engagement to guitarist Kevin Skaff in early 2016, former Divas Champion Paige got engaged to former WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio later that same year. The 29-year-old was the one who proposed to her boyfriend at a wrestling event.

Paige later posted a photo of her proposal on her Instagram account. In the caption, she described her relationship with Del Rio as "unbreakable."

"When you have something that's unbreakable. You keep it. Never have I loved someone so much in my life. Thanks for the love you give me. You're my world," she wrote.

Despite this, the couple called off their engagement in 2017. Del Rio later revealed why he and Paige decided to part ways.

"We decided to end our relationship because she’s in Orlando, I’m in San Antonio and now she’s back on the road and the schedule over there is non-stop. And my schedule is non-stop with my pro wrestling shows, my projects and stuff with Telemundo-Mexico TV Azteca, calendar, charity events and all that stuff. So we were not seeing each other (...) I couldn’t go to Orlando because I have three little kids and I was coming home two or three days. And I had to choose between going to Orlando or staying with my kids. So, of course, I decided to stay with my kids. We decided to end our relationship," he said on Konnan's podcast.

Del Rio currently competes on the independent circuit. Meanwhile, Paige retired from in-ring action in 2018 due to injury. Nevertheless, she is still under contract with WWE. The Anti-Diva last appeared on WWE television nearly two years ago.
