Artem Chigvintsev has praised Nikki Bella as his “rock”

Posting a picture of himself with the ‘Total Bellas’ star, he wrote: “I want to wish the happiest birthday to my beautiful and definitely better other half.

“You are my rock, you have been absolutely incredible as a mom to Matteo and I am so lucky to have you. I want to wish you lots of success, love and happiness and everything you wish for.”

Artem is currently away from home as he’s busy filming ‘Dancing with the Stars’, and closed his post by saying he “can’t wait” to see the former wrestler again.

He added: “I love you and miss you and can’t wait to see you to celebrate.”

Meanwhile, Nikki recently admitted she and Artem will start attending couple’s therapy with their “life coach” once Artem finishes filming the ABC dancing competition.

She said: “I would be lying to say, ‘Oh, it’s great.’ It has definitely been a struggle for us. It’s hard. We have so many ups and downs. It’s been so difficult on our relationship because I need so much from him, but he’s, like, torn between his job that requires so much from him and then us at home.

“It’s with our life coach. After ‘Dancing’, we’re going to start classes as a couple because we’ve realised that we both feel like we’re not listening to each other. … We finally both just said, like, ‘We need to bring someone in to help us so we don’t get [back] into that place.’ ”
