She did not shy away from giving her audience a 360-degree view of her physique. In fact, she added that the turn in front of the camera was one of the scariest things she has done.

Now, pregnancy comes with a series of cravings, especially for food. Nikki Bella explained to her followers the way she gave in to her cravings. Nothing she said was an act of sugarcoating.

“I’m five-weeks postpartum, so maybe not all those pounds are fun. But, the majority are for sure from having a lot of fun.”

Moreover, she admitted that during her pregnancy, especially towards the end, there was a significant indulgence in pizzas and baked goods. Considering she had to be home all the time due to the COVID-19 scare, it’s understandable that she would enjoy the food items that are essentially not a part of her diet.

I want to say COVID and being in Arizona with a lot of heart and I didn’t get work like I used to, see a personal trainer, and go to classes. But no, I indulged in pizza quite a bit, especially towards the end, and baked goods.”
