The pair went their separate ways after six years together and broke off their engagement that begun when Cena got down on one knee in the ring after a mixed tag-team match in 2017.

Bella, 36, has moved on with professional dancer and former Strictly Come Dancing star Artem Chigvinstev who she met while competing on Dancing with the Stars.

The gorgeous couple are expecting their first child and pregnant Bella has revealed it was kids that drove a wedge between her and legendary Cena.

Speaking on Maria Menounos's YouTube show Better Together, she said: "Overall, we did have such an incredible relationship. It was just two people that wanted two different lives but were trying so hard to make it one.

"Even in the end when he was willing to give me kids, I could just tell, it's not what he wanted.

"And that's really, like, you know, what pushed me in the end, I was like, 'Am I'm going to force someone to be a father?'

"What if he looks at you down the road and just regrets everything, and then you have this child and you've built this life.

"Is that what you want? And I remember thinking, 'it's not what I want.'"

Nikki - who stars alongside twin sister Brie on reality show Totally Bellas - also divulged that sordid details about the ex-couple's sex life were barred from her book.

The Bella sisters' memoir Incomparable had "wild sex stories" removed on request of Cena.

Nikki added: "I understood. It was great for him!

"I was kinda like, don't you want high fives on that!?...

"We were wild, and he was strong...so it was a great story.
