Mercedes Mone, the reigning TBS Champion, has publicly confirmed her new relationship with fellow AEW star Beast Mortos, marking her first known relationship since her divorce from WWE costume designer Sarath Ton last summer. The news was highlighted by a social media post from Mortos, who shared an Instagram story featuring Mone, captioned with the phrase “en tus brazos encuentro paz,” which translates to “In your arms, I find peace.” This charming sentiment was paired with a playful bull emoji obscuring Mortos’ face in the photo.
Mone appeared to acknowledge the relationship on X (formerly Twitter), sharing a post that reflects her excitement, along with a humorous touch linking to Mortos’ recent accomplishment of completing his law exams. This showcases Mortos’ diverse talents, as he has an impressive background as a veterinarian and nurse before pursuing his legal studies while continuing his wrestling career.
The couple’s public display comes after Mone’s revelation last year that her marriage to Ton had been on rocky ground for some time, though they amicably separated years prior to their official divorce. Mone described her decision to finalize the divorce, stating she was “ready to be free,” which points to a positive turning point in her life after a significant chapter.
This development in Mone’s personal life not only highlights her new journey but also showcases the importance of moving forward positively after significant life changes.
