Nikki Bella is shooting down a major romance rumor.
The Nikki Bella Says I Do star is addressing recent online claims that she and husband Artem Chigvintsev aren’t legally married, despite tying the knot during their August 2022 wedding in Paris.
“We are,” the former WWE star assured fans during a Jan. 26 Watch What Happens Live appearance. “We have a license in Paris and we have a license here in the U.S. I mean, it’s confidential so I don’t know if someone tried to search for it and couldn’t find it. We’re legally married—twice. Two countries.”
Twin sister Brie Bella, who was serving as bartender on the late-night Bravo talk show, confirmed, “I was witness to both.”
Nikki, 39, and Artem, 40, made things official last summer in the city where they got engaged—Paris—surrounded by a small group of family and friends and, of course, their 2-year-old son Matteo Chigvintsev.
