Carmella doesn’t think she’d ever get back into dating if her marriage to Corey Graves came to an end. The former WWE star says she’s already invested so much time into their relationship that the thought of starting over with someone new sounds more exhausting than exciting.
Speaking on the “Hot Mom S*** podcast, Carmella shared that she and Graves often joke around whenever she mentions another guy is attractive. According to her, Corey will playfully tell her to go be with him, but she says she always gives him the same answer.
“He will always say, you know, if you like—just jokingly—‘Oh, you’re going to go…’ Like, if I say some guy is hot or whatever, he’s like, ‘Oh, go be with him.’”
Rather than entertaining the idea, Carmella says she’d have no interest in another relationship if they ever divorced.
“I’m like, ‘If you and I got divorced, I would not ever want to be with anybody else.’”
She explained that it’s not because she doesn’t find other people attractive. Instead, she laughed that she’s already spent years “molding” and “training” Corey into a husband who understands her, and she can’t imagine putting that kind of effort into another relationship.
“I spent so much time molding you and training you and getting you to where, like, I need you to be that if we ever broke up, I would be alone forever.”
Carmella went on to explain what she meant by “training,” saying it’s really just what happens naturally in a long-term relationship. Over the years, Corey has learned what makes her happy, what annoys her, what she likes and what she doesn’t, and she joked that teaching all of those things to someone else sounds like far too much work.
“It takes so much work to try to train. I joke around about, like, training my husband, but it’s like legitimately now he, like, knows what sets me off, what pisses me off, the things I like, the things I don’t like, and they just, like, need to be, you know, taught.”
The conversation was all in good fun, but it also showed how comfortable the couple is with each other after years together. For Carmella, she’d much rather keep the relationship she’s already built than go back to awkward first dates, learning someone else’s habits, and trying to build that same connection from scratch.
Do you think Carmella has a point, or do you think she’d eventually change her mind if that situation ever happened? Let us know in the comments below.
