Nikki Bella admits her twin sister Brie Bella wasn't a fan of her relationship with Artem Chigvintsev when it started out.

"My sister was like, 'No,' for Artem in the beginning because she was so in love with John," Nikki, 35, told Us Weekly, referencing her ex-fiance John Cena.

But the Russian Dancing with the Stars pro, 36, apparently won Brie, 35, over.

"Now she absolutely adores [Artem]," Nikki confirmed.

Nikki and John called it quits on their engagement in April 2018 after more than five years together.

Although Nikki and the professional wrestler reconciled two months later, they split for good in July 2018.

After competing on Season 25 of Dancing with the Stars together and having major chemistry onstage, Nikki and Artem began seeing each other in December 2018.

"I mean, now I'm more like, 'Whatever my sister wants,'" Brie told Us of Nikki's love life and romance with Artem, explaining she is now onboard.

"I was Team John for so long because, you know, he was my brother."

However, Brie certainly wouldn't be opposed to Nikki ending up with John, 41, in the long run.

"If they get back together, I'd love it," Brie explained.

"So I'd never give Artem the time of day because I was like, 'No, they're getting back together, so I don't care about you.' But now... I've finally given Artem a chance and he's super sweet."

Romance rumors swirled about Nikki and Artem for months, and then in late March, Nikki posted a photo on Instagram in which she was kissing Artem on the cheek, leading fans to believe they went "Instagram official."

Nikki, however, confirmed shortly afterwards on The Bellas Podcast while she and Artem are dating and "sleeping together," they are not boyfriend and girlfriend, according to Us.

Nikki also insisted she's still dating other people.

Nikki and Brie both star on Total Bellas as well as Total Divas, but the pair just announced earlier this week they are going to retire from Total Divas in order to focus on their spinoff and podcast.

The fourth season of Total Bellas premiered on January 13, while the new season of Total Divas is expected to premiere later this year.
