Nikki Bella isn’t shying away from the Cooper DeJean dating rumors—she’s turning it all the way up.
The WWE Hall of Famer took to Instagram on December 28 and added serious fuel to the rumors linking her to Philadelphia Eagles rookie Cooper DeJean. Bella posted a video of herself confidently strutting in none other than DeJean’s jersey ahead of the Eagles’ game against the Buffalo Bills. She captioned the clip with a cheeky nod that fans didn’t miss:
“Walking into Sunday like…. 🦅🔥 ‘Been there, WON that.’ 🙌🏼 #flyeaglesfly”
This move comes almost two weeks after dating speculation first caught fire when Nikki attended the Eagles-Raiders game and was spotted hanging around Lincoln Financial Field, even posing in DeJean’s locker and snapping photos with the 22-year-old cornerback. In her original post, she wrote:
“So blessed for the people around me, new friends and old, who make life so special and fun.”
DeJean didn’t do much to cool the fire either—he dropped a heart and eagle emoji on another of Nikki’s posts, giving fans all the ammo they needed to start shipping the duo. The rumors follow a rough few weeks for Nikki, who was previously shutting down false accusations about “hooking up with fans,” telling trolls:
“I haven’t even kissed anyone in forever. Might need to start practicing on a pillow at this point.”
Now? Fans think she’s moved on from the pillow—and the past. Nikki finalized her divorce from Dancing with the Stars pro Artem Chigvintsev last November, and it seems like she’s fully embracing a new chapter—possibly with one of the NFL’s hottest rising stars.
So what do you think—is Nikki Bella just having fun or is this the start of something serious with Cooper De Jean? Please share your thoughts and feedback in the comment section below.
