'Dancing with the Stars' professional dancer Artem Chigvintsev has reinstated his wife, Nikki Garcia's, name to his Instagram bio following his arrest on charges of corporal injury to a spouse. The couple, who recently celebrated their second wedding anniversary, faced a turbulent time after Chigvintsev's arrest in Napa County.
A 911 call made by Chigvintsev revealed a heated argument during which he claimed Garcia threw shoes at him. The incident prompted his arrest and subsequent release on a $25,000 bond.
Garcia's representative requested privacy for the couple and their family after the incident.
The reinstatement of Garcia's name on Chigvintsev's Instagram bio suggests a possible reconciliation between the couple, although neither has publicly commented on the situation.
This incident is not the first time Chigvintsev has faced accusations of aggression. He was previously accused of shoving and kicking a 'Strictly Come Dancing' partner.
Fans and followers of the couple are closely watching for further developments in their relationship as they navigate this challenging period.
