The couple first met when they were matched up as dance partners on season 25 of “Dancing With The Stars,” and started dating soon afterward, according to E! News. They have been engaged for a long time but were unable to tie the knot due to Covid-19 restrictions, reported TMZ.
Bella was previously engaged to wrestling superstar John Cena, but the two never made it down the aisle. Cena went on to marry Shay Shariatzadeh in 2020.
Bella’s fans will soon be able to view portions of her wedding to Chigvintsev on her reality TV show “Nikki Bella Says I Do” which is slotted to run as a four-part series on E! in 2023.
