The Bellas are back from a whirlwind trip to Paris, and Nikki has A LOT to share…about her HUSBAND! It's taking some getting used to, but there are some new words in Nikki's vocabulary and some newish bling on her ring finger. This episode kicks off with Nikki sharing a lot about the wedding night she didn't want to end, the joy that she and Artem have after exchanging vows, and the excitement about sharing this important chapter of their love story with the Bella Army on the upcoming E! show “Nikki Bella Says I Do.” Nikki & Brie have a special connection to Paris, and after spending ten days there, it felt like home. The fashion, the restaurants, the friends and family that traveled to celebrate with them, sightseeing and taking in some history and art along the way.

Brie's also noticed that her new brother-in-law is beaming too and that he's captivated by the new jewelry on his ring hand too.
