John Cena proposed to
longtime girlfriend Nikki Bella on live TV at WrestleMania 33 on Sunday night,
in a move the 39-year-old star said he had been planning for a year and a half.
“I found the absolute right person,” Cena, 39, said of his fiancée
during a Monday appearance on the Today show. “A strong person that I consider
an inspiration, an equal. Somebody who when I’m feeling down picks me up.
Somebody when she’s down I can pick her up.”
In front of the screaming WrestleMania crowd, Cena dropped to one
knee and asked 33-year-old Bella to marry him. (See the ring here!) Bella said on Monday that
although she never expected Cena to pop the question in such a place, she’s
glad he did.
“I never actually would’ve thought that he would propose in front
of all those people, but that’s home for us,” she said of the WWE ring.
“It’s where we met. It’s our passion, it’s our life and so, for
me, it was kinda like he’s my prince charming and he’s just saying I want her
to be my queen at her home and in front of our family. Honestly, I couldn’t
have asked for it to be any other way. It was perfect.”
Bella added: “I was shocked and I couldn’t have said ‘yes’ quick
enough.”
Cena and Bella have been dating for nearly five years and their
relationship has been documented on the hit E! reality shows Total
Divas and Total
Bellas.
The proposal came after the wrestling couple defeated the Miz and
his wife Maryse during a tag-team match, which Cena called a dream come true
culled from People Magazine.
