Specifically, Carmella <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/shows\/total_divas\/news\/1080880\/carmella-faces-death-threats-after-she-s-wrongly-accused-of-breaking-up-corey-graves-marriage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">was pegged as a homewrecker<\/a> after boyfriend <strong>Corey Graves<\/strong>&#8216; estranged wife made infidelity claims on social media.<\/p>\n<p>Although the claims were unfounded, Carmella still faced quite a bit of backlash, including death threats.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At that time, I was really trying to stay away from social media. It was so hard,&#8221; Carmella exclusively told E! News on Wednesday. &#8220;If there&#8217;s anything I learned from it it&#8217;s that, at the end of the day, I know who I am and I know my truth. My friends and family know the real me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And while this drama wasn&#8217;t a pleasurable experience at the time, Carmella appears grateful that her side of the story was shared on <em>Total Divas<\/em>. In fact, some detractors have even offered up apologies.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-2\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"58.370535714286\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"14.008928571429\">\n<p>&#8220;I got such a crazy amount of love and support from the WWE universe and the E! audience last night, even today. It&#8217;s still pouring over,&#8221; Carmella, who was born <strong>Leah Van Dale<\/strong>, added. &#8220;So many people are supportive and even some people are taking back the negative things that they said when they first found out the situation. You know, they didn&#8217;t know the whole truth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Of course, this wasn&#8217;t the only drama Carmella faced while filming <em>Total Divas<\/em>. In the season nine premiere, <strong>Nia Jax<\/strong> unexpectedly confronted Carmella <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/shows\/total_divas\/news\/1078561\/nia-jax-accuses-carmella-of-playing-it-safe-on-total-divas-we-re-trying-to-break-barriers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">for an alleged lack of &#8220;genuineness.&#8221;<\/a><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"video-int-txt-3\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"36\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-video-text\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"12\">\n<p>Per Carmella, she was left so baffled by this confrontation as she didn&#8217;t expect it one bit.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Nia and I have never been the best of friends, but from what I&#8217;ve felt we&#8217;ve never really had like a big falling out or anything like that,&#8221; the <em>SmackDown<\/em> wrestler further reflected. &#8220;I was so thrown off, I think you can tell in my face. I&#8217;ve never been called fake. I&#8217;ve been called a lot of things in my life, but never a fake person.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-5\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"61\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"12\">\n<p>As for where she stands now with Jax? Carmella revealed that answer will be shared later on in season nine.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the drama, Carmella is staying positive, especially when it comes to her career. Between women having the main event at WrestleMania 35 and <em>Evolution<\/em> (the all-women&#8217;s pay-per-view event), it&#8217;s certainly been a historic time for women in the WWE.<\/p>\n<p>Is this a sign of a new normal within the wrestling industry? Carmella sure seemed to think so.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-7\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"60\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"10\">\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve done all of these firsts,&#8221; the first Ms. Money in the Bank relayed. &#8220;Now we just have to keep this momentum. It&#8217;s now at a point where I feel like it&#8217;s not a big deal that women are doing these things. It&#8217;s just equal.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We can definitely get behind that notion!<\/p>\n<p>For more of Carmella, be sure to catch Tuesday&#8217;s all-new <em>Total Divas<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tune-in-8\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"33\">\n<p class=\"tune-in__text\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\">Watch a brand new episode of <em>Total Divas<\/em> Tuesday at 10 p.m., only on E!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1081413\/carmella-says-she-s-received-a-crazy-amount-of-love-and-support-following-unfounded-homewrecker-claims?cmpid=rss-000000-rssfeed-365-topstories&#038;utm_source=eonline&#038;utm_medium=rssfeeds&#038;utm_campaign=rss_topstories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: E!
