Currently, she is a main cast member on the seventh season of Total Divas as well, which started up in November of 2017 and is expected to continue running until January of 2018.
Here are five things that you may or may not have known about Trinity Fatu:

She Is a Member of Anoa’i Family Family Through Jonathan Fatu
Speaking of which, it is interesting to note that through her marriage with Jonathan, Naomi is considered a member of the Anoa’i family, which is a family of professional wrestlers. For example, Jonathan and his twin brother Joshua are the sons of Rikishi, who was a well-known professional wrestler signed with World Wrestling Entertainment in his own right. Other well-known members of the Anoa’i family include Umaga, Yokozuna, and Roman Reigns. Furthermore, the Anoa’i family has a connection with the Rock as well because of the Rock’s mother Ata Maivia, who was the stepdaughter of Peter Maivia, who was blood brothers with Reverend Amituana’i Anoa’i.
Used to Be a Professional Dancer
Before she became a professional dancer, Naomi was a professional dancer. For example, she was a cheerleader for the Orlando Magic from around 2007 to the middle of 2009. Furthermore, she has been a background dancer for Flo Rida.
First African-American Woman to Win SmackDown Women’s Championship
Over the course of her career as a professional wrestler, Naomi has had a number of impressive achievements. One excellent example is how she is a two-time SmackDown Women’s Champion, which is even more impressive because her victories make her the first African-American woman to win that particular title. As a result, it is no wonder that Naomi has been a main cast member on Total Divas since July of 2013, though she has been absent from the reality TV show from time to time.
