Nikki Bella says dating is not exactly on her calendar right now.
Ahead of SummerSlam, the WWE star told Us Weekly that her love life has been put on hold while she juggles a packed schedule. “I’m pretty much like a nun at this point.
Super celibate. I should just put on a ring,” she told US Weekly.
“I wish I was out there getting wild. I just don’t have energy for it.”
That lack of energy makes sense when you look at everything she’s balancing. Bella returned to WWE this year after unretiring, and she also keeps busy with a wine company and podcast alongside her twin sister, Brie. On top of that, she is a single mom to five-year-old Matteo.
She shares custody of her son with ex-husband Artem Chigvintsev. The two were married for about two years before separating in August 2024 after his domestic violence arrest. Prosecutors did not pursue charges, and the divorce was settled later that fall.
Bella was most recently linked to Philadelphia Eagles defensive back Cooper DeJean. The two went on dates earlier this year after reports first surfaced in January, but they have not been spotted together for months.
Brie Bella has been trying to nudge her sister back into the dating world, though she understands why Nikki keeps turning it down. “She’s too busy, and I get it,” Brie said.
“Matteo is her world right now. She’s like, ‘I have no time between being on the road, our wine company and our podcast, and then Matteo.
I try. But she’s like, ‘No, no.’
This is the thing with her: If she has a free night, she wants to Netflix and chill. She’s like, ‘I don’t want to go on a date.
I don’t have to dress up.’”
For now, Bella’s focus is elsewhere. She’s set to team with Brie and Paige this weekend at SummerSlam in a six-woman tag match against Fatal Influence. With wrestling, business and motherhood all demanding attention, romance is clearly taking a back seat.

Eagles Make Their First Camp Cut As Line Concerns Start Growing
The first roster move of Eagles training camp arrived quickly, with the team parting ways with TaQuon Graham just days into the 2026 session. Graham, who came over after a stint with the Falcons and finished last season on Philadelphias practice squad, had a short runway to make an impression as the club started sorting through its depth in the trenches.
The timing adds to the sense that the Eagles are already keeping one eye on the health of their line rotation. A pair of rookies were carted off practice on the third day of camp, and the uncertainty only feeds the ongoing chatter around Brandon Graham and whether a return could still materialize, even though nothing has been signed. For a team that leans on its fronts as much as Philadelphia does, every early camp absence feels bigger than it should. [Read more 🡒]
Kylie Kelce Pushes Back After Personal Family Rumors Crossed A Line
Kylie Kelce used her July 30 podcast episode to shut down the pregnancy chatter that had been building around her family, pushing back on the habit of reading too much into a womans appearance. She spoke candidly about life at home with the couples four daughters and also opened a window into how seriously she and Jason have thought about baby names, giving listeners a more personal look at the family beyond the headlines.
The conversation came with a sharper edge because it was really about boundaries as much as baby talk. Kylie made clear that family matters should stay private, even as she has continued to share pieces of her life publicly, and the episode added another layer to a month already packed with Kelce family buzz after she congratulated Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift on their July 3 wedding, calling the ceremony intimate and full of love.

Eagles Are Betting Big On A Rookie Unlike Anyone Else
Uar Bernard arrived in Philadelphia with one of the most unusual resumes in the Eagles building, a seventh-round pick and International Pathway Program participant who is only now starting his football career. With no prior playing experience to lean on, Bernard is learning the game from the ground up, and the Eagles have made it clear they are treating his development as a long-term project rather than a quick fix.
Vic Fangio and Clint Hurtt have already mapped out a patient approach for the rookie defensive lineman, who is getting reps alongside established veterans while trying to absorb as much as he can each day. Bernards work ethic has stood out early, and for a team willing to invest in such an uncommon prospect, the challenge now is staying steady through the slow climb that comes with teaching football from scratch.
