Brie Garcia appears to be speaking out following the recent legal developments involving her sister Nikki Garcia’s estranged husband, Artem Chigvintsev. After prosecutors declined to file domestic violence charges against the Dancing with the Stars alum, Brie took to Instagram with a cryptic message that left fans buzzing.
“The truth always comes out in the end, no matter how hard anyone tried to hide it or stop it. Lies are just a temporary delay to the inevitable,” read Brie’s Instagram Story post on September 25. She added a “loading” GIF under the message, subtly hinting that more revelations may be on the horizon.
This comes in the wake of Artem’s arrest on suspicion of felony domestic violence in August. After spending time in jail and being released on $25,000 bail, Artem was officially cleared of charges by Napa County prosecutors on September 24. Reflecting on the ordeal, Artem expressed relief, saying, “I am incredibly relieved and grateful that the domestic violence charges against me have been dropped. This has been an extremely difficult time for me.”
The 42-year-old professional dancer, who shares a 4-year-old son with Nikki, emphasized that his priority remains his child, Matteo. As the legal battle unfolds, Artem has filed for joint custody and spousal support from Nikki, who had earlier requested sole custody.
Though Nikki has remained silent on the accusations, Brie gave a brief update on their podcast, Nikki and Brie, stating, “She just asks for her privacy for her and her family.”
As the drama surrounding the high-profile couple continues to unfold, Brie’s post has fueled speculation that there might be more to this story than meets the eye. Whether this is the end or just a chapter in the saga remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: The Garcias aren’t ready to close the book just yet.
