Renee Young explains how she started dating Dean Ambrose

There was a time when Renee Young and Dean Ambrose’s relationship was the talk of the pro wrestling community — or at least a very young, very outspoken section of it — centered mostly around whether or not they were actually a couple. She came clean and admitted they were in love early last year while maintaining their want to keep the relationship private.

But now that she’s a cast member on Total Divas, we’re all going to get an up close look at it, which also means she’s going to be asked about it in interviews. Sure enough, Channel Guide Mag got her to open up on the subject, including the story of how they became a couple.

“Maybe about six months in, he and I started dating. I don’t even know if I can pinpoint exactly what it was. It was like instantly we were together. We were always talking to each other. We were always spending all of our time together. It just kind of happened.

“We just caught each other’s eye and were always around each other. You hear stories from like the Twins or Nattie, girls that were around prior to me being there. They told me he wouldn’t talk to anybody, ever. Then when I came around, they noticed he is chatting with me and coming to hang out with me. He is known to kind of keep to himself. That has always been his deal. I don’t know. We just hit it off. I guess he has a thing for Canadian girls; hopefully, just me.”

Adorable.

The season six premiere of Total Divas airs next Wednesday night on the E! channel, so it won’t be long until we get as up close and personal as they allow.
