00:00To Nikki, Bella and Artem from Dancing with the Stars, you know of course their divorce
00:05was ongoing and in fact was headed for trial in just a couple of weeks.
00:11That's not going to happen now because they have reached a settlement and it appears that
00:15both sides just want to move on.
00:18They want to put this behind them.
00:20You know that the charges against him were dropped, the domestic violence charges were
00:25dropped.
00:26I don't think they ever filed it.
00:27They were never filed.
00:28Right, that's right.
00:29They filed it but they decided not to charge him and now they both just want to get this
00:34divorce over with.
00:35So they've actually come to a settlement.
00:38Yeah, the terms of the settlement are unclear to us right now but what we are being told
00:42is this isn't a sign that these two are getting along again.
00:47Basically what they're doing is they're just cooperating because they want to do what's
00:50best for their son.
00:51They want to keep things private and they, like you said, ultimately just want to move
00:56on with this whole thing.
00:58The trial is coming up in two weeks so if that happens, you know, things become much
01:01more public and things get strung along.
01:04They didn't want to keep paying their attorneys all this money.
01:07That's true too.
01:08And by the way, the one thing that they did do as well is she dropped the restraining
01:13order that she had against him which probably is a move toward co-parenting, I'm guessing.
