It was reported last week that Artem Chingvintsev, the husband of former WWE star Nikki Garcia aka Nikki Bella, was arrested on a felony domestic violence (battery) charge. In an update on the situation, TMZ.com noted the following…

“Nikki Bella is on the hunt for a divorce lawyer … TMZ has learned. Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ … Nikki has been making calls since Friday, and we’re told her intention is to file to end her marriage to Artem Chigvintsev.”

In her public appearances since the alleged incident, Nikki has not been wearing her wedding ring. Nikki was a host for the Joey Chestnut vs. Takeru Kobayashi hot dog eating contest over the weekend in Las Vegas.

TMZ also stated that Artem has reportedly been staying at a friend’s house while Nikki has been occupying the family house with their 4-year-old son Matteo.
