Nikki Bella and Artem Chigvintsev Kids Choice Awards

Fun and Funky

The 35-year-old WWE babe and Dancing With the Stars pro, 37, looked picture-perfect at the casual event. Nikki showed off her killer abs in lime green leggings and a white crop top while Artem wore blue slacks and a white button-down shirt.

Going Strong

Artem and Nikki went public with their relationship after the Total Bellas finale in March. Since then, they’ve been on trips together and frequently post affectionate photos of each other on social media.

Getting to Know the Family

The dancer has even spent time with Nikki’s family, including her 2-year-old niece, Birdie. She recently gushed about how good he is with kids on an episode of her podcast that she hosts with her twin sister, Brie, “The Bellas Podcast.”

Thinking Ahead?

“And can we just say how cute is Artem with Birdie?” Nikki asked her sister during their July 3 episode. “They’re very cute together,” Brie agreed. The lovestruck girlfriend continued, “And she loves him … he’s going to make an amazing father.”

Growing Family

Nikki does not have any kids and Brie only has one daughter with her husband, Daniel Bryan. It sounds like we need more baby Bellas running around!

Hmmm …

“Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa … You just said he’s going to make an amazing father!” Brie exclaimed and called out her sister. Nikki quickly backtracked, “Not to me, it could be to anyone.” Brie simply laughed and said, “Oh gosh, here we go!”

Jack of All Trades

Nikki isn’t shy when it comes to Artem’s many talents. “He’s an amazing cook, he’s an amazing lover. He does work around the house,” she said during the April 24 podcast episode. Um, where can we find one?

Officially Unofficial

When Brie asked if Artem was her “boyfriend,” Nikki was quick to note, “No … Because I’m not ready.”

Distance Makes the Heart Grow Fonder

“Artem flew all the way from London to Napa Valley to meet me at BottleRock,” she recalled during their June 6 podcast, which featured the Russian stud.

Too Cute

“I hadn’t seen Artem for a week and a half and I’ll admit during that week and a half, I realized how much I missed my, beautiful, smart, handsome … dancer,” Nikki explained, obviously being careful about her word choice.

One Track Mind

Nikki posted the heartwarming video of their reunion on Instagram. She explained why she wanted the moment captured: “So I said, ‘Brie I want to have it on tape. Like, I haven’t seen Artem in so long, so film me. … But then it was so cute because I ran up to Artem and the driver was trying to ask for my photograph or a photo or something, but I was like beelining for my man.”

That’s What Sisters Are For

“So are you saying you wanted to make him your boyfriend?” Brie pressed her sister (again) about their situation. Nikki slyly quipped, “I’m not saying that. What I’m saying is when he was gone I realized how much I missed him, like, tons.”

The Feeling Is Mutual

Artem felt the distance just as much. “I’d been away for 10 days and that is a long time … I think it’s the first time we’ve been apart for 10 days in quite a while … I did miss you a lot,” he confessed.

Pump the Brakes

As Artem was spilling his guts about missing Nikki, both sisters interjected, “Oh my gosh, are you gonna propose?” Brie joked, “We go from no labels to getting engaged!”

Keep Being the Cutest

We’re glad Nikki was able to find love after her dramatic split from John Cena. It’s amazing to see the starlet so happy.
