10 Things You Didn't Know About Alexa Bliss

6. Bodybuilding Helped Bliss Overcome An Eating Disorder Relapse

That dramatic episode aged 15 wouldn't be the last time that Alexa Bliss suffered with an eating disorder. Relapsing in college, the gymnast enlisted the help of personal trainers Natalie Calland and Mike Davies to help her gain some healthy weight.
