The now-exes allegedly didn’t try to hide their marital woes, making Chigvintsev’s arrest “shocking but not shocking” amongst their closest confidants.
Following the alleged incident, Garcia moved out of their family home and stopped wearing her wedding ring, signaling the end of their marriage.
The pro wrestler made her first public appearance at Netflix’s “Joey Chestnut vs. Kobayashi: Unfinished Beef” hot live dog eating contest less than one week after the alleged altercation.
Although Garcia put on a brave face for the event, fans noticed she ditched her massive emerald engagement ring and wedding band.
“I’m so happy to be here,” Garcia, dressed in all red, told the crowd.
As previously reported, Chigvintsev was booked on a felony corporal injury charge on Aug. 29 after getting into a heated altercation with someone in his Napa Valley residence.
The former “Dancing With the Stars” pro called 911 himself to request medical assistance for the unnamed victim — only to call back and cancel the request.
However, police still responded to the call and eventually arrested Chigvintsev after witnessing the injuries to the victim, who asked for “total confidentiality.”
Although authorities did not reveal the identity of the victim, the 911 call proved Garcia was present at the time of the alleged crime and got “into an argument” with Chigvintsev.
