“This song is our love story. I’ll never forget where I was when I asked Jesus about Artem. Having a conversation with He & God,” the former wrestler had written in her caption of the story while uploading the track by Elvis Presley, Falling In Love With You.
Even Chigvinstsev had wished his wife, writing, “Happy anniversary my love, can’t see my life without you. You are my everything.” As per a report by Page Six, the couple share a 4-year-old son, whom they named Matteo.
It was back in the year 2019 when they first met each other. This was during the time they were the participants in the show, Dancing with the Stars. As per PEOPLE, during this time Garcia was dating the famous wrestling icon, and actor John Cena.
While the couple parted their ways a year afterwards, Nikki Garcia reconnected with Artem Chigvintsev later that same year.
