The former Dancing With The Stars pro quickly and swiftly hid the ring and box but both he and Brie acted very awkwardly when Nikki walked in.
Obviously sensing something weird was going on, Nikki looked at her twin sister and said: ‘What? You’re staring at me with the creepiest smile like you’re going to turn into a clown.’

Brie said: ‘Artem is proposing to Nicole and I don’t know what she’s gonna say but she has no idea that Artem asked me to pick up the ring and bring it all the way to France.’

During their visit to Europe, many speculated that the couple was on their way to being engaged.
Weeks after the engagement news, Nikki revealed that she is expecting her first child and is due just a week an a half apart from her twin sister Brie.
The pair first met while partners on Dancing With The Stars back in 2017, but their connection went on to be much more serious.

While their initial chemistry was more than clear, the retired wrestler said she never expected things to get serious.
‘I never would have thought even when Artem and I were dancing… we had incredible chemistry, but I never once thought that he would one day be my boyfriend,’ she told People earlier this year.
‘We had such an amazing friendship and when we went on our first date, it was still kind of in that friend zone.’

But by May 2019 the couple had taken their relationship far beyond the dance floor, publicly seen smooching for the first time after a lunch date at Joan’s On Third.
Nikki and Artem’s engagement came two years after the end of the WWE Diva’s relationship with wrestler/actor John Cena.
It was a rocky run for the pair, who dated for six years before breaking up in summer of 2018.
The couple broke off their engagement twice before finally pulling the plug on their relationship.
Total Bellas airs Thursday nights at 9pm on E!
