Nikki Bella Blames Sacrificing Her Career for Breaking Up with John Cena

While speaking with Page Six, Nikki Bella discussed her decision to break up with long-time boyfriend John Cena and placed the blame on one of them having to sacrifice their careers for them to be together.

“One person had to sacrifice their career [for us to be together], but I’m not willing to do that. I’m just not the girl who hangs out on set. I have my own career. I want to be one of Forbes’ top entrepreneurs.”

Nikki also commented on any speculation that their breakup was a work for garner ratings for the Total Bellas reality show.

“People said it was fake for ratings, [but] don’t you think a wedding would be best for ratings? I would never fake a break-up. And when people keep questioning it, it actually makes your heart ache even more.”

Nikki has also revealed that she’s not interested in having kids right now.

“She [niece Birdie] has been the best form of birth control for me. Here I was dying to be a mom. Now I want to push it back. Can my clock tick until my 40s?”
