Nikki Garcia to Pay Artem $200K + Monthly Support in Divorce Settlement — Custody & Domestic Drama Exposed!

   

Nikki Garcia and Artem Chigvintsev settled their divorce months ago — and the details have finally been revealed.

While the former couple reached an agreement in November 2024, a judge only recently signed off on it.

The “Total Bellas” alum, 41, agreed to pay her ex-husband $3,500 a month in child support for their 4-year-old son, Matteo, TMZ reported Thursday.

Garcia reportedly will also give the “Dancing With the Stars” pro, 42, two $100,000 lump sums — one now and another by the end of the year.

Additionally, the WWE star is going to fully cover the expenses of their little one’s speech therapy, according to the outlet.

She and Chigvintsev will, however, split the cost of Matteo’s extracurricular activities.

As for the exes’ custody schedule, they are reportedly dividing holidays, too.

Reps for Garcia and Chigvintsev did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.

The former couple were granted joint custody in October 2024 despite Garcia’s request that Chigvinstev get only supervised visitation and take anger management classes.

Instead, the duo were ordered to attend individual therapy and parenting classes.

Garcia and Chigvintsev got married in August 2022 in Paris, two years after Matteo’s birth.

The pair split shortly after their second wedding anniversary.

At the time, Chigvintsev was arrested on felony domestic violence charges, though he denied wrongdoing, claiming his then-wife had been the aggressor.

The charges were dropped in September 2024.

When Garcia addressed their contentious split in a “Nikki & Brie Show” podcast episode three months later, her twin sister, Brie Garcia, applauded “shocked” Nikki for brushing off the “lies” making headlines.

Nikki explained in the December 2024 conversation why she “came at [the situation] with love” instead of defending herself.

“The day Matteo wants to sit and talk about it, I have all the proof that I tried to handle everything with love and care,” she told listeners at the time. “All I wanted to do was to protect [him].”

Brie, however, couldn’t resist not-so-subtly dissing Chigvintsev last year with an Instagram post regarding “the truth always com[ing] out in the end.”
