Nikki Bella, who has earned fame and fortune in WWE, has sparked dating rumours with Cooper DeJean – who is two decades younger than her
WWE beauty Nikki Bella has sparked dating rumours with Super Bowl hero Cooper DeJean after the pair were snapped parting together.
Nikki, and her twin sister Brie, have been regulars to the Philadelphia Eagles for the past couple of seasons – and in her latest vlog, eagle-eyed fans noticed some clues hinting towards her rumoured relationship with DeJean.
The Bella twins had been at Lincoln Financial Field as the Eagles bested a hapless Las Vegas Raiders 31-0 to end their three-game losing streak. And Nikki, real name Stephanie Nicole Garcia-Colace, made it a point to show off the cornerback’s locker.
And then, later on in the evening, they were seen partying out in Philly – seemingly celebrating the Eagles win, but it has sparked dating rumours between the in American media.
And DeJean might have confirmed this, when he commented an Eagle and heart emoji on one of her posts.
Nikki has had two high profile relationships in the past – she was married Dancing with the Stars pro Artem Chigvintsev, they have a son named Matteo, but split in late 2024.
She was also in a long-term relationship with WWE icon John Cena, and after they first started dating in 2012, Cena got down on one knee to propose at WrestleMania 33 in April 2017 after their mixed tag match against The Miz and Maryse.
DeJean, meanwhile, is rumoured to be single after splitting with childhood sweetheart Steph Wilfawn.
The corner back became an instant cult hero at the Eagles in spring, thanks to his pick-six in the Super Bowl en route to a Super Bowl ring. “It’s crazy, crazy,” DeJean told The Rich Eisen Show.
“Still doesn’t feel real to me that that happened. I’m just incredibly grateful to be a part of this group and this defense and what we’ve been able to accomplish all year.
“I couldn’t have done it without those guys up front and all of us in the back end just working together like we have all year to make that play possible.”
