Nikki's comments from 2013 were noted by the official Chyna Twitter account, ran by those close to the former WWE Women’s Champion after she passed away in 2016, and Bella herself has now apologised for her remarks.

Writing on Twitter, Bella said: “I want to sincerely apologize for a comment I made over 8 years ago on Fashion Police. I am sorry and embarrassed by my 29 year old self, who offended Chyna and in turn, hurt her family and others.

"I wish I could take it back. Please learn from me, it’s not worth hurting someone’s feelings for a meaningless laugh. Chyna will always be remembered as an icon and pioneer who helped create the opportunities for women in wrestling that exist today. Thank you Chyna!"
