NIKKI BELLA SUFFERS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Garcia has been making headlines since August 29, when TMZ reported that her husband Artem Chigvintsev had been arrested for domestic violence.
According to the report, a call was made from the couple's home requesting an ambulance and was canceled minutes later. When police arrived at the scene and found visible injuries on the victim, they arrested Artem for aggravated battery against a spouse or cohabitant.
He was released on bail. Although Nikki has not been confirmed as the victim, she has not worn her wedding ring since the incident in public appearances and it has been reported that Artem no longer resides at the family home, leaving only Nikki and their 4-year-old son Matteo. TMZ also reported that Nikki has sought legal help in filing for divorce.
On her social media, she has only commented that this is a private matter and has asked for privacy for herself and her family.
