Nikki Bella and Cooper DeJean have been going on dates, but she's still single, says a source. As reported by TMZ, something is definitely brewing between them. A source told the publication that the two have been going on dates and spending time together. However, the source notes that even though they've been hanging out and enjoying each other's company, the professional wrestler is still "very single." The source also shared that the 42-year-old TV personality is simply enjoying her life.

The tipster further noted that while the chemistry between them is strong and there does seem to be a mutual spark, the relationship remains casual. For now, Bella's primary focus is on her career and her son, Matteo.

Bella was previously married to Artem Chigvintsev. The couple tied the knot in 2022 and parted ways two years later. They share a son, Matteo Artemovich Chigvintsev. So while this may just be a few dates for Bella, it still marks a meaningful step for her in terms of relationships.

Speaking about her relationship with her ex-husband on her podcast, "The Nikki and Brie Show," Bella said that they maintain a cordial relationship. They continue to co-parent their son, and her full attention remains on raising him. Meanwhile, neither Bella nor DeJean has publicly confirmed their relationship.
