Celeste Beryl Bonin (born October 7, 1986) is an American professional wrestler, entrepreneur, bodybuilder, and model. She is best known for her tenures in WWE from 2010 to 2014 and 2018 to 2019, under the ring name Kaitlyn, where she is a former WWE Divas Champion.

Bonin started her career as a body fitness model. In 2007, she won the National Physique Committee (NPC) John Sherman Classic Bodybuilding Figure and Fitness Championship and came in fifth at the Arnold Classic in the NPC Figure Class D competition.

In July 2010, Bonin signed a developmental contract with WWE. Later that year, she competed in and won the all-female third season of NXT, thus earning a spot on the main roster. She won the WWE Divas Championship in January 2013 and held the title for five months before retiring in January 2014. She came out of retirement and made her in-ring return on the independent circuit in February 2018.
