Nikki Garcia Discusses Post-Divorce Dating Experiences, Prioritizes Motherhood

Nikki Garcia, recently divorced from Artem Chigvintsev, has decided to take a break from dating, prioritizing her son Matteo and career instead. Despite going on a few dates after her divorce was finalized in late 2024, Nikki found she was not interested in pursuing new relationships and feels fulfilled by the love she receives from motherhood. She shared these thoughts during an episode of "The Nikki & Brie Show" podcast, which she cohosts with her twin sister Brie Garcia, who has been encouraging Nikki to date more. Both Nikki and guest Charlotte Flair, also recently divorced, expressed a preference for self-love and traditional ways of meeting people over dating apps. Nikki also discussed the public's misconception of her toughness due to her WWE career, emphasizing that she is empathetic despite her 'badass' persona. Brie, married to Bryan Danielson, supports her sister and highlighted the positive personal growth she has witnessed following their divorces.
