In an update on the contract status of Kelly Kelly, the former WWE Divas Champion has been granted time off from the company as she has been on the road full time since 2006 and needs the time off to recharge her batteries, this according to a report from Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com.

The report indicates that through a WWE source, they felt that she had been there since she was a kid and had been pushing for some time away to spend with her family and her boyfriend and that six years on the road for someone of her age can feel like a lifetime, so she needed a break, however Johnson noted that the word amongst a certain section ot talent in the company is that she won’t be returning to the WWE anytime soon, as she has started to get her real name (Barbara Blank) out into the public eye and is accepting endorsements and appearances out of WWE, which she confirmed with information on her Twitter bio in the last few days.

Kelly had meetings in the last week with management firms about representing her in potential acting roles, independent of the WWE.
