Nikki Bella and Artem Chigventsev have been together for more than the past couple of years and now it seems that they are ready to tie the knot. A date is finally official that the two will be exchanging the vows. As per the recent announcements, they are set to get married during the Thanksgiving weekend of 2021.
Nikki Bella announced her wedding date with Artem during the end of Total Bellas season 6 finale. A video clip from the host E Network has been released to promote the same. The ex-WWE Superstar welcomed her first child with Artem this past summer, a baby boy named Matteo. She gave birth on July 31st, to be exact and the journey towards parenthood has been well-documented in the bygone season.

Before the wedding announcement, the season 6 finale of Total Bellas covered Nikki Bella’s postpartum depression. The situation was becoming too much to handle on her own while Artem was away working on Dancing With The Stars. As seen on the show, Brie Bella informed Artem that her sister was “drowning” in depression.
Things became even more chaotic as Nikki Bella became furious with Brie while Artem was hurt as he was kept in the dark about the whole situation.
“I never want for her to feel this way. It just breaks my heart to realize that I’m literally torn in two different directions,” Artem said in the show confessional (H/T to E!). “Is it worth it for me to get so much damage done to my family versus having a job? I would’ve never said yes if I knew that was how the situation would be.”

Nikki Bella and Artem went through ups and downs
Artem then wanted to quit DWTS but Nikki Bella said that she didn’t want him to do that. Artem headed to Napa Valley for a sit-down with his fiancée when she opened up.
“I think it’s hard for men to truly understand postpartum,” Nikki said. “Our body goes through so many changes inside and out and the battle we face mentally as moms—as a new mom—figuring that out…I’ll be honest, I started to just feel super invisible. Especially when, like, obviously my body—I have to look at myself naked in the mirror. It’s hard.”
Artem apologized for not recognizing how Nikki Bella was feeling. But he acknowledged being so happy because of Matteo and Nikki. The conversation ended with the former Divas Champion being extremely relieved. She then announced the wedding date for later this year during Thanksgiving weekend.
Nikki Bella recently revealed that she and Artem were going through therapy sessions to be the best parent for their newborn child. While Artem is pursuing her dancing stint, the elder Bella is looking forward to making a comeback to the WWE in the near future. She would be trying to go after the Women’s Tag Team Titles with Brie Bella by her side.
