WWE Superstar Natalya announced on The Ariel Helwani Show that she will be releasing her memoir, titled The Last Hart Beating, later this year.
Set to be published in late October by BenBella Books and distributed by Simon & Schuster, the memoir will be a raw, waveringly honest look about Nattie’s life including her chaotic childhood in the boom-and-bust world of professional wrestling, including her family’s brush with homelessness, her father’s battles with addiction and other effects of chronic traumatic encephalopathy, leading to his eventual sudden death and how they shaped her, her struggle to navigate the complex dynamics between the Hart family and WWE in the aftermath of the Montreal Screwjob, Owen Hart’s tragic death, her husband TJ Wilson’s near-fatal, career-ending, in-ring injury, and her front-row seat to the rise of women’s wrestling and the resilience it took to thrive as a female wrestler at a time when what you looked like on screen was more important than how talented you were between the ropes.
“From heart-pounding glory to devastating loss, The Last Hart Beating pulls no punches when it comes to the drama, hilarity, and outright mayhem of life inside the ring and out,” the preview of the book reads.
Speaking to Helwani, Nattie said that the book has been like her baby and she has been working hard on it, pouring her soul into a captivating story.
“I was so grateful that in the summer, Triple H allowed me to have time to work on it and to really dig into it,” she said, revealing that she started working on it after she signed her new WWE deal in June.
“It was one of the most cathartic experiences of my life to be able to go, ‘OK, I want to tell my story,’ because once I started writing it, I realized that a lot of people don’t know my story,” she said.
