The arrest comes two days after Bella, whose legal name is Nikki Garica, celebrated the couple's two-year wedding anniversary.
"This song is our love story," the former WWE star wrote on Instagram, alongside a video montage of their wedding day with the song, "Can't Help Falling In Love," playing in the background. "I’ll never forget where I was when I asked Jesus about Artem. Having a conversation with He & God. How my feelings felt too soon. It all felt too fast. And then this song came on. And that’s when I knew that I was falling in love with him and that it was all meant to be."

One year later, they welcomed their son, Matteo.
Bella previously opened up about her struggles with postpartum depression that impacted her marriage at times.
"He’s like, ‘At times, I felt like you were starting to hate me.' He’s like, ‘You could be mean.’ And I’m not gonna lie, I did have moments of being mean," Bella admitted on her podcast, "The Bellas," in October 2020. "I felt bad for Artem, because it made him feel terrible, and then he's like, 'I wish you came to me sooner,'" she revealed. "He was just so sad at the fact that I was feeling all these things and I never told him."
