“Dancing With The Stars” pro Artem Chigvintsev is currently in jail in Napa, California, following his arrest for domestic battery, TMZ has learned.
Artem was booked into Napa County Jail on Thursday morning on a felony domestic violence charge, according to online jail records.
While details surrounding Artem’s arrest remain unclear, it’s notable that his wife, former WWE star Nikki Garcia, was also in Napa at the time, as she shared on her Instagram Story Wednesday. However, it is currently unknown if she was involved in the incident.
This shocking development comes just days after Artem and Nikki celebrated their wedding anniversary. The couple, who began their relationship after being paired on “DWTS” in 2019, tied the knot in 2022. They share a 4-year-old son, Matteo, and own a home together in Napa Valley.
We have reached out to representatives for both Artem and Nikki, but have yet to receive a response.
This is a developing story, and we’ll provide updates as more information becomes available.
