Twin sisters Brie and Nikki Bella, 36, are pregnant at the same time, and their due dates are less than two weeks apart from one another! How crazy is that?
Brie, who was already a mom, said, “Wait, twins being pregnant at the same time? People are going to think that’s a joke. We both are shocked. People are going to think we planned it, but you can’t really plan pregnancy!”
Her sister agrees that this was a huge surprise for her. “It took even me a good week to come to terms with like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m pregnant.’ I’m not ready for it.”
Nikki is expecting her first child with her fiancé Artem Chigvintsev. The pair is engaged since November, when they went on a trip to France. She said that she felt like a pregnancy test is in order. “And so I’m like, ‘Why do I keep having this feeling? Am I getting twin vibes from her? Because she just told me she’s pregnant?’”
Nikki says she had not yet told her fiancée the big news then. “I didn’t tell Artem at this point. I just want to do this by myself. When I came back in, and it said pregnant, I had to sit down for a second.”
He sister Brie had just found out she was pregnant as well, her second child with Daniel Bryan, her husband. They were trying to get pregnant for the second time for around 8 months. Their daughter Birdie Joe is 2 years old now.
Brie, former WWE fighter, adds this, “When we were in France meeting Artem’s family, I felt a little off. I was irritated and uncomfortable in my body. When we got home, I took a test two days before Thanksgiving, and when I saw the positive sign, I [shocked]. I can’t believe I’m going to be a mom soon.”
Nikki adds, “I feel like I literally have a hangover every day and it’s crazy because I’m not going out and partying. I’m not hitting up my usual happy hours. There’s no wine in my life. It’s like having a hangover. I think what’s been the hardest part on me is feeling this hangover every day.”
While Nikki was dating John Cena, who was also her fiancé, they could not agree on having or not having kids. Cena, 42, later changed his mind.
“When I thought it was going to be taken, for me, it was really difficult. I was just like, gosh, I can’t imagine life without being a mom and experiencing the miracle of life and raising a child. I’m just so family-oriented that I couldn’t imagine not having that family life.”
Talking about her baby, she finished with this, “I’m going to have this person to take care of for the rest of their life and help them do the right things and just show them the way of the world. That’s amazing! It’s something I’ve dreamed of my whole life.”
