Tattoos

Her look leans instead on glamorous, pageant-inspired presentation — a deliberate homage to her ring persona’s namesake, the classic Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe.
Relationship status
For much of her early WWE run, Monroe kept her personal life private, and she was widely reported to be single. That changed in August 2026, when she appeared on The Nikki & Brie Show and confirmed she is in a relationship.
During the conversation, she explained that she had twice been approached to join the UK and US versions of Love Island, once around age 18-19, and again years later after she had relocated to America, but turned both opportunities down, ultimately revealing that she had already found a partner in real life before the second offer came around. She has not publicly named or identified her boyfriend.

- She grew up a huge WWE fan, watching shows with her two older brothers, and also took part in theatre and track and field at school.
