Nikki Bella’s family is relieved that she never got married to pro wrestler John Cena, RadarOnline.com exclusively learned.

The 36-year-old's tumultuous split from John, 42, played out in front of the world on her and twin sister Brie’s hit E! show Total Bellas in 2018. As Radar readers recall, Nikki called off the wedding not once but twice after years of waiting for John to come around and agree to marriage and babies.

Now, a family source close to the twins revealed Nikki has “never been happier than she is right now” with her new boyfriend and former Dancing with the Stars partner, Artem Chigvintsev. Nikki’s close family members believe her relationship with Artem is a sign that her relationship with John was “not meant to be.”

“It was good it ended before a wedding. She’s just blessed that it happened this way. When she does decide to marry, it’ll be a first, true wedding,” the source continued.

“The happiest birthday to my beautiful Nicole may this be very special filled with lots of love, I love you so so much,” Artem captioned a photo of Nikki on her 36th birthday on November 21.
