The arrest took place on Thursday morning, around 9:40 a.m. Chigvintsev faces accusations under California Penal Code Section 273.5(a), which pertains to domestic violence and corporal injury inflicted on a spouse, former spouse, cohabitant, or the parent of one's child.

The details surrounding the incident remain unclear. There is no immediate information about Bella’s involvement or the specific circumstances leading to Chigvintsev’s arrest. The couple had recently marked their anniversary with a heartfelt social media exchange. Bella shared a touching video montage of their wedding day on Instagram, accompanied by the song "Can't Help Falling in Love," reflecting on their journey and love story. Chigvintsev also posted a tribute, expressing his deep affection and commitment to Bella.
The couple, who married in August 2022, have a four-year-old son named Matteo. Their relationship has often been highlighted in the media, including their wedding in Paris and their family life in Napa Valley. Bella, a former WWE star and television personality, has been open about her struggles with postpartum depression, which she has said affected their marriage at times.
Chigvintsev’s arrest comes just as the new season of "Dancing with the Stars" is about to begin. According to sources, he was not scheduled to be part of Season 33, which premieres next month. This news has undoubtedly cast a shadow over what was previously a celebratory period for the couple.
In a broader context, Chigvintsev’s arrest follows earlier reports of contentious interactions with partners on dance shows. For instance, British TV personality Fern Britton had previously described a rough and uncomfortable experience with Chigvintsev during their time together on "Strictly Come Dancing." Britton’s comments resurfaced recently, adding to the complex narrative surrounding Chigvintsev’s professional and personal life.
As the investigation into the domestic violence charges continues, there are calls for privacy and respect for the parties involved. The situation remains fluid, with further details expected as the legal process unfolds.
