Wrestling stars Brie and Nikki Bella have asked fans for prayers as their mother undergoes surgery to remove a mass from her brain stem.
Kathy Laurinaitis was due to go under the knife on Tuesday, and as she prepared for the big operation, her twin daughters, who are both heavily pregnant, took to social media to request followers keep their mum in their thoughts.
“Our Mama Bella, our Gigi, our Gato is about to head into brain surgery. I ask for so many prayers, so much light and love sent her way,” Nikki, 36, shared on Instagram.
“Sadly they found what you can compare to a tumour on her brain stem that has been paralyzing her face. I have faith that the amazing doctors will do an incredible job and our Gigi will be on the road to recovery starting late today.”
“She’s loved by so many of us and just pray that her road to recovery is exactly what we are hoping for so we can put two new grand babies in her arms soon,” Nikki added. “Love you SOOO (sic) much Mom! You have a big Bella Army out here praying for you!!”
Brie Bella also took to Instagram to encourage followers to send “all the prayers and love” to the 55-year-old.
“They (doctors) realized she doesn’t have Bells Palsey (sic) but a mass on her brain stem,” she explained. “Couldn’t sleep because I was praying all night. She’s a strong one and I know all her angels will be with her… Love you Mom @kathylaurinaitis.”
Laurinaitis will be a familiar face to fans of the Total Bellas reality series, as she has previously made appearances on camera with her daughters since the show launched in 2016.
