Since Becker and Reigns began their relationship, Reigns has been diagnosed withleukemia twice. He was first diagnosed in 2007 at the age of 22.

“I didn’t really have anybody,” he told PEOPLE. “I didn’t think it was anybody’s fault, I just had my wife — who was pregnant at the time.

Reigns was then diagnosed with leukemia again 11 years later, in 2018. He spoke to PEOPLE about the support he received from everyone around him, including WWE fans. He went into remission four months later, perESPN.

Being a professional wrestler keeps him busy, but as his family has grown, Reigns has spent more time at home.

“It’s been great,” he said onToday. “My schedule’s shifted around a little bit, so I have a lot more time at home now, and I can feel that relationship strengthening, and those bonds are getting better and better. It’s a very blessed situation.”

In early 2020 — at the beginning of the pandemic — Reigns decided to temporarily step away from WWE to keep his family safe. Becker was pregnant with their second set of twins, and Reigns is considered immunocompromised as a cancer survivor.

“I just had to make a choice for my family,” Reigns told theHindustan Times. “I trust my life with my co-workers every time I step foot in the ring, but I just can’t put the same trust when it has my children, my wife and my family involved.”
