Overview

• Nikki Bella confirmed on her podcast the $200,000 lump sum and $3,500 monthly child support she is paying ex-husband Artem Chigvintsev, describing the settlement as a 'steal.'
• Bella emphasized that the financial agreement ensures an equal quality of life for their 4-year-old son Matteo in both homes.
• The divorce settlement follows Chigvintsev's 2024 arrest on suspicion of domestic violence, though charges were later dropped, and Bella's subsequent divorce filing.
• Bella revealed the judge commented on her career success, noting it was the first case he had seen where a woman was ordered to pay a man support.
• Both Bella and Chigvintsev report an amicable co-parenting relationship, with the option to revisit child support terms until Matteo turns 18.
