Former WWE champion turned Hollywood actor John Cena may have popped the question to his girlfriend Shay Shariatzadeh. As pointed out by some very observant internet sleuths, Shay was seen with a massive rock on her left ring finger in the background of a photo Cena took with a fan at an amusement park in San Diego.
Amidst the engagement rumors, Cena tweeted on Tuesday, “A happy marriage is a long conversation that always seems too short."
Adding to the speculation that Cena and Shay will soon be tying the knot are a pair of photos he posted on instagram earlier this week. Those who following Cena on IG know that his feed is typically filled with meaningless, random photos posted without context - but his recent activity certainly seems to suggest that he's hearing wedding bells.
The couple were first spotted in public together last March while Cena was in Canada filming "Playing With Fire." The 16-time WWE champion was previously in a six-year relationship with fellow WWE star Nikki Bella, but they called off their engagement in April 2018. Bella is currently engaged to, and expecting a child with, her former "Dancing With The Stars" partner Artem Chigvintsev.

John Cena Looks Forward To Celebrating Valentine’s Day With Girlfriend Shay Shariatzadeh
They’re still going strong.
Just days after John Cena’s ex Nikki Bella revealed that she and her boyfriend Artem Chigvintsev have been engaged since November, the WWE star has opened up about his relationship with his Canadian engineer girlfriend, Shay Shariatzadeh. The duo hit the red carpet this past weekend for the Dolittle premiere and wasn’t shy about packing on any PDA.

Chatting with Extra on the red carpet, the 42-year-old detailed how he’s looking forward to Valentine’s Day to simply enjoy time with someone he loves. “It’s just a reminder to care about who you care about. The takeaway from Valentine’s Day is to remind you to love what you love,” he said.
Previous to their weekend outing, John shed a little light on this companionship with Shay. “If I have a connection with someone, I believe we’re defined by our actions, and how you treat them is a reflection on how you will treat them in the future,” he said.
“I think when anyone was a connection with someone, and someone says like, ‘Hey, there’s something here, and by the way, I appreciate who you are, I appreciate who you want to be, I appreciate how you live your life.’ I don’t think that’s gender-specific. I think that’s something we all want to hear.”
