"That was his only request. Bryan's whole family are B's and I'm a B, so he really wanted our kids to be B's. From there, we wanted a nature-inspired name and that's how we decided on Birdie. Her middle name is Joe after my grandfather who meant the world to me," Bella told Mini Magazine.

Bella, who's twin sister Nikki is engaged to WWE star John Cena, opened up about her birth experience. The Total Divas beauty wanted to give birth naturally. "It was the complete opposite of what I expected. I thought I could labour naturally, but after nine hours, I couldn't handle the pain. It ended in an emergency C-section. Birdie had a 14-inch head!" Bella said.
