Layla won the 2006 Diva Search and became the first-ever British born WWE Diva. The former star then went on to have a historic WWE career where she joined forces with Michelle McCool and the two women officially unified the Women's and Divas Championships.

Layla was part of WWE for almost a decade before opting to walk away from the company and retire from the business back in 2015.

Layla worked closely with fellow WWE star Cody Rhodes throughout her time in the company and even announced publicly that she was in a relationship with the current AEW star back in 2009.

Rhodes and Layla dated until 2011 before Rhodes began dating Brandi Reed, whom he married in 2013. Layla moved on to a relationship with NXT star Ricky Ortiz and the couple married back in 2015.

Interestingly, Layla is one of the few women who hasn't returned to WWE as part of the current women's revolution despite playing a huge role in the history of the division.
