When it comes to the current hottest WWE sensation, the first name that might hit your mind is none other than Shaun Ricker aka LA Knight. The wrestler formerly known as Eli Drake kickstarted his crackling wrestling journey back in 2003. However, his WWE debut materialized some ten years later.

Despite some initial struggle in his run for promotion, the former Million-Dollar Champion is now elevated to the status of the most talked-about superstar in the promotion. But all of these might not be so seamless for him if an ideal life partner wouldn’t anchor him from behind throughout the roller coaster journey. So, who’s that phenomenal lady in La Knight’s life? Let’s peep through his heart affairs a bit.

There’s very sparse information available on LA Knight’s marriage. In fact, some people are still not aware of the fact that the SmackDown star is already hitched to Michelle Yavulla, a renowned fitness enthusiast by profession. Despite not reaching as much height of fame as his husband, the prized fitness aficionado made her mark in the world of bodybuilding. Yavulla participated in some of the most prestigious female bodybuilding competitions. Back in 2016, she clinched 5th place at Baltimore Gladiator and rose to 3rd position the next year. However, her media engagement mostly shed light on her journey alongside her husband, LA Knight.

The woman who chose to live a life of secrecy despite her spouse’s meteoric rise in the wrestling world undoubtedly brought value to the megastar’s life. Let’s look back on how the blissful couple started the journey side by side.

When did LA Knight get married to his wife, Michelle Yavulla?

Nowadays fans become more aware of the superstar’s drawing-room affairs than their in-ring antics. They know, gossip and speculate about the family members of the stars most, especially their spouses. It has quite become a norm to dig deep into any wrestler’s love life. But it has been possible because of the wrestler’s frequent updates on social media. We see most of the stars posting a bunch of pictures with their partners, writing long notes for them on birthdays and anniversaries, etc. But LA Knight is not one of them. Despite being married for more than 5 years, the wrestler seldom boasted about his relationship on social media.

In 2020, Knight rarely posted on their 2nd anniversary on Instagram. Thank god he did as we came to know that the superstar has been happily betrothed since 2018. We hope the couple will spill more information on their lives together in the coming days to feed fans’ curiosity.
