John Cena says he still loves Nikki Bella after their sudden split earlier this month.
“I love Nicole with all my heart, and the split is very tough,” the wrestler-turned-actor said. “But that’s life. We all go through highs, we all go through lows. I’m going to get through it. I love her. I’ll always love her. The fact that my heart hurts for her — I know I was in love. So I’ll always have that.”
The 41-year-old performer was promoting the Transformers spinoff movie BumbleBee at CinemaCon, the Las Vegas convention for theatre owners.
The couple had been together for six years and got engaged a year ago on live TV during the WWE’s Wrestlemania. They often took their relationship public, canoodling on red carpets and talking about each other in interviews.
Cena has made a successful transition from the WWE to acting, appearing in movies like Trainwreck and the recent R-rated comedy Blockers. Bella stars in a reality TV show on E! called Total Bellas with her twin sister, Brie.
