Nikki Bella was a guest on the latest episode of Chasing Glory with Lilian Garcia where she discussed being on Dancing with the Stars and the difficulties that came with it.

During the episode, she also discussed battles with depression, fighting off an abductor and her engagement with John Cena. You can tap the link here to go listen to the entire podcast and hear those comments.

On how the experience had an effect on Cena:

“I fell in love with dance. I have not, in so many years – and this was hard on John because I was very honest with him – but I have not felt this young and, like, alive…And now I found this new passion, and I felt young and free.”

On what she didn’t like sharing on camera:

“What was weird for me – and this was the crazy experience – since I was 15, I told myself, ‘I will never depend on a man. I will never need someone.’ And I joined this competition, and I have to depend on a man, and I have to need someone… I was feeling all these emotions, so I was bottling myself up, and I knew this could have made amazing TV for them. I didn’t want it to be forced. But I would go home at night, and there were times that I would cry.”
