Artem Chingvintsev, the husband of former WWE star Nikki Garcia aka Nikki Bella, was arrested on August 29, 2024, for felony domestic violence (battery).

TMZ.com reported this week that Nikki has officially filed for divorce. According to divorce documents, Nikki wants legal and physical custody of their four-year-old son Matteo, but she is willing to allow Artem visitation rights. Nikki cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for her divorce from Artem. Nikki also checked the box preventing the court from awarding spousal support to either of them.

Artem has yet to face formal charges for the incident, despite the fact that investigators turned over the case to prosecutors last week.
