Later, the fans were surprised to see a photo that showed Nikki Bella posing in front of Cooper DeJean’s locker room. But if you think that it confirms the dating, hold your seats. Later that evening, both were spotted together partying at a local bar in Philly.

Who is Nikki Bella, Cooper DeJean’s rumored girlfriend?

Bella also has the stage name Nikki Garcia and has held the longest-reigning WWE Divas Championship. She also won the Rolling Stone Diva of the Year Award in 2015 and has been part of high-profile rivalries. Similar to her career achievements, her dating life has always been part of the news.

Nikki Bella married her high school sweetheart at the age of 20. But the marriage was annulled after three years. She later dated the WWE great John Cena for almost five years before their engagement in 2017, which they later called off. Next, she dated the Dancing with the Stars partner and Russian dancer Artem Chigvintsev, and the couple welcomed a son.

They even got married but got divorced later. On the other hand, Cooper DeJean is Philly royalty as well. He has won a Super Bowl and recorded an interception of Patrick Mahomes in the Caesars Superdome, becoming the first player to intercept a pass or score a touchdown on his birthday. He was earlier dating the Iowa college student and influencer, Steph Wilfawn, but they aren’t seen together anymore.
