Whether they intended to or not, John Cena and Nikki Bella sure are getting a lot of attention for their sudden split!
Despite speculation suggesting the longtime pair called off their wedding for publicity, a source tells People the 41-year-old actor’s breakup from the Total Divas star was the real deal.

The insider explains:
“They truly broke up. Cancelling the wedding was not a hoax or a publicity stunt. This hasn’t been a quick or cheap decision, and it was a real one.”
Turns out, they both lost the deposits on their wedding planned for May 5.
As we’ve reported, the 34-year-old ended things after coming to terms with their different views on marriage and kids:
“John needed to have his bluff called. He said so many times that if Nikki really wanted kids, she should leave him. So you know what? She left him. I don’t think John ever really thought she would do that├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ that she wouldn’t keep just caving in and giving him exactly what he wanted, exactly how he wanted it.”
Now that it’s happened, it sounds like John is doing whatever it takes to get the reality star back:
“He knows he screwed up, and he knows he has to fix this.”
And it sounds like the wrestler would be open to getting back together, too:
“She’ll take him back, definitely. She loves him, and she knows he loves her desperately. They’ll get back together and they’ll get married. The wedding they called off no longer felt like their wedding├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ it was a wedding for TV, a wedding for publicity, a wedding for the fans and for viewers almost. That’s what made them able to walk away from it├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ it didn’t even feel like their day anymore. In the end, calling it off is going to be the best thing that ever happened to their relationship.”
Hmm… we have a feeling this won’t be the last we hear about these two!
