Carmella is going to take things slow, but you can count on her coming back to WWE.
PEOPLE spoke with Carmella (Leah Van Dale), who is currently pregnant with her first baby with her husband, Corey Graves. Carmella definitely plans on returning to the ring after she delivers because it sends an important message.
“I for sure plan to come back. I think it’s important to show you can have a baby and still have a career, especially a very physical one at that. But I’m not going to rush.
“I really just want to take my time recovering and making sure that I feel great and ready to go back and not sort of rushing,” she explained. “Because I don’t even know what to expect as far as how I’m going to feel after having a baby.”
Carmella said she wouldn’t be opposed to her son eventually becoming a wrestler, teasing that he’s already pretty active.
“Maybe he’ll be a third generation, which would be so cool,” she said. “But I would never push anything on him, whatever it is that he wants to do.
“But if he’s anything like what he’s like right now in the womb, I mean, he’s insane. He is a maniac. He does not stop moving. So if that’s any indication of how rambunctious he’s going to be once he’s Earthside, then we’re in it, for sure.”
