Nikki Garcia smiled as she co-hosted the event «Chestnut vs. Kobayashi: Unfinished Beef» with Netflix on Monday, September 2nd. The live broadcast took place just a few days after Garcia’s husband, Artem Chigvintsev, was arrested for domestic violence in Napa, California.
Dressed in a red suit, the 40-year-old Total Bellas participant Garcia thanked the audience and said she was «very happy to be here», - according to E! News. She then told the audience, «I love you guys too».
Garcia’s appearance came three days after her husband, 42-year-old Chigvintsev, was arrested on August 29th. According to various sources, Chigvintsev was charged under section 273.5 (a) PC of the California Penal Code, which indicates an act of violence against a spouse or cohabitant.
According to online jail records reviewed by Hollywood Life, the Dancing With the Stars professional dancer was arrested at 9:59 a.m. in Napa County and booked at 10:40 a.m. Chigvintsev’s bail was set at $ 25,000, and he was released at 2:18 p.m. the same day.
Neither Garcia nor Chigvintsev have publicly commented on his arrest. However, Garcia’s representative released a statement that was received by various sources.
«This is a private matter, and Nikki asks for privacy for herself and her family at this time», - the representative said on behalf of the departed wrestler.
Since his arrest, there have been rumors of Chigvintsev possibly returning to DWTS.
Just days before the professional dancer’s run-in with the law, he and Garcia celebrated their second wedding anniversary. The couple shared tributes to each other on Instagram through their respective accounts. Garcia shared a video montage of moments from their 2022 wedding, as well as memories with their son, Matteo. In her caption, the former reality show contestant included the lyrics of Elvis Presley’s song «Can't Help Falling in Love».
«This song is our love story», - Garcia wrote. «I will never forget where I was when I asked Jesus about Artem. The conversation with Him and God. How my feelings were too soon. Everything was happening too fast. And then this song played. And then I realized I was falling for him and that it was all meant to be. Happy anniversary @theartemc I love you [sic]».
