WWE NXT star Karmen Petrovic took to Twitter on December 25 to send holiday wishes to her fans while offering an emotional update on her recent absence.
The young wrestling talent, who has been noticeably missing from NXT programming, expressed her gratitude to supporters in a touching letter she included in her tweet.
“To my friends, fans, family, and everyone in between, Merry Christmas 🎄🎁🫶🏼🥰,” Petrovic wrote. She went on to add, “Here’s a lil update from me, I miss you so much & can’t wait to see you soon 🤞🏼🗡️.”
The attached letter revealed that Petrovic has been battling a severe illness, which she described as a “rough flu” with a fever of 120. She admitted to struggling with her recovery over the past week, adding that she felt guilty about letting people down due to her inability to maintain her usual energy and presence. However, she used the opportunity to share an important lesson about self-care.
“I learned the hard way that if you don’t give yourself and your body some time to rest, your body will force that rest upon you,” she wrote. “And it’s usually at the most inconvenient time.”
Petrovic expressed her immense gratitude for the unwavering support from her fans, promising to return stronger than ever. “When I come back, I’ll be even better, as you all truly motivate me to push through,” she assured. Ending her letter on a high note, she added, “#SHINGSHINGSQUAD forever 🗡️.”
