Carmella gives an honest update 5 months after giving birth

WWE Superstar Carmella has been on a break from WWE for a while. The previous SmackDown Women’s Champion recently gave a sincere update after giving birth to her first child five months ago.

After making a significant impact during her tenure in WWE, Carmella decided to take a hiatus upon revealing her pregnancy. In 2019, she began a relationship with WWE commentator Corey Graves, and the couple tied the knot in April 2022.

After experiencing an ectopic pregnancy and subsequent miscarriage, she welcomed their first child together on November 8, 2023. Despite being out of the public eye during this time, the former SmackDown Women’s Champion recently shared an honest update on Instagram, five months after giving birth.

In her Instagram stories, she shared about the challenges of raising a newborn and how it can impact a mother’s life. The constant need to cancel plans due to unpredictable circumstances can take a toll on the mother.

“It’s been a rough few weeks. 4 month sleep regression is real teething. Every day I feel like I’m not doing enough. Everything gives me mom guilt. I also have plans/aspirations for the day but end up canceling everything because I have zero energy to do anything. The newborn phase was hard, but no one talks about this 5 month mark [crying emoji],”she wrote.

Carmella’s subsequent story emphasized the joy of life with the newborn. She also pointed out that many people believe everything is effortless for others based on their social media presence, which is far from the truth.

“Life is amazing. I’m beyond blessed. I’ve never loved anything more than being a mom. This is the happiest I’ve been in my life,”she added.

A number of female wrestlers in WWE have resumed their careers in the ring after giving birth, furthering their wrestling journeys.

Could Carmella emulate Becky Lynch’s triumphant WWE comeback?

After Becky Lynch announced her pregnancy while holding the RAW Women’s Championship, she took an indefinite hiatus. This created an opportunity for Asuka, who was already a Money in the Bank briefcase holder, to become the new champion.

After giving birth to her first child with Seth Rollins, Lynch worked tirelessly to make a quick return to the ring. Her determination proved that women are capable of achieving anything and continuously improving.

It is possible for Carmella to make a comparable move and make a comeback to the WWE ring later this year. As one of the biggest names in the organization, fans are eagerly anticipating the return of the former women’s champion.

It is possible for the star to make a comeback on SmackDown, as her husband Corey Graves is not currently the main commentator for the brand. She may even return at the same time as Alexa Bliss, who has also been absent from the ring since giving birth to her first child.
