Kathy Colace, the mother of the Bella Twins, is officially divorced from John Laurinaitis.
Colace broke the news on the Nikki & Brie Show podcast.
John Laurinaitis is part of the Vince McMahon lawsuit filed by Janel Grant and has been accused of sexual assault. In one part of her filing Grant accuses McMahon of forcing her into threesomes and one was with Laurinaitis at WWE headquarters.
Colace called the first few months of the year “heartbreaking” in her life but she had moved on and healed. She thanked everyone for the well wishes and prayers. In 2020, Colace had a mass from her brain stem that was initially mistakenly diagnosed as Bell’s Palsy. Earlier this year she had surgery to help with her facial paralysis.
On the podcast, Brie Garcia spoke about all that has been happening with her family.
“The last year has been really hard on my family,” said Brie.
Brie hasn’t been impressed with some of the coverage she has read.
“If there was an award for b——-t, there are a lot of you who would win that award,” said Brie.
Brie then asked her mom for permission to announce the divorce.
“Is it fine to tell everyone that you’re divorced? She’s not single and ready to mingle, by no means. She is, I feel like, enjoying your independent time. People are curious to know where you’re at,” she said.
“I will tell you how the experience is from someone that goes through it. You need time. You need silence. This is for anyone. We all have our stories and we all have our challenges. My thought is, let yourself feel every emotion. One day, life is fine, and the next day you’re hit with something that just rocks your world. You actually feel a paralysis to yourself,” Colace began.
She then spoke about how she deals with the comments she reads on social media and the like.
“If you stay on any type of social media, everyone has great advice, what they think is advice and they have no idea what you’re going through. You need to give people grace. Everyone involved, whether you’re siding with one person or the other, give everybody grace. As a person going through it, you need to feel anger, heartbreak, sadness and recovery. Our body is made to feel emotion. When you tuck an emotion away it will find its way out. My recommendation for anybody going through anything challenging, give yourself some grace, allow yourself to feel all the emotions that you’ll feel and sit in silence and appreciate yourself. You will get through this. If you need outside help to get through it seek outside help. In regards to the haters, you’re going to hate. Maybe find it in yourself to give everyone grace. Hopefully you’re not treating people close to you with hate,” she said.
She married him after the twins were adults.
.........ew. That means, given what's happened, there's a high likelyhood that both of them did things with him by force, and then he married their mom.
Oh my god, I don't even want to think about the hell that Kathy has probably been through with this situation.
Maria used to make insinuating remarks about the Bella's sharing a hot tub with him... Implying they slept their way to the top... I think she has walked those claims back in recent times though.
