During Season 33 of Dancing with the Stars, dance pro Emma Slater was paired with actor Reginald VelJohnson. They were eliminated during the third week of the competition. Meanwhile, Alan Bersten was partnered with Olympian Ilona Maher. They are still making a Quickstep towards the Mirrorball. Well, now Emma has reportedly found love in the ballroom … again. This time with Alan.
Are Alan Bersten and Emma Slater DWTS’ latest romance?
Last season on DWTS, Emma was paired with Mauricio Umansky. Emma and the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star kept everyone guessing about the nature of their relationship. It was clear that they bonded and had a strong friendship. However, it sometimes seemed like their relationship was very flirty. And Mauricio’s wife, Kyle Richards, probably wasn’t a fan, as this happened amid their marital problems.
You may recall that Emma married fellow pro Sasha Farber in 2018. Sadly, the couple separated in 2022, and Emma filed for divorce in 2023. The former couple was able to remain friends and support each other while working together on DWTS.
Reportedly Emma now has a new love interest in the ballroom. An insider told US Weekly that Emma and Alan are “hooking up.” The source added that their relationship is “not new, it’s ongoing.”
However, this duo wants to keep their romance under wraps. Despite this, a fan on X (formerly Twitter) posted a photo that appeared to show the couple holding hands. I understand their desire to keep their alleged romance a secret, but I love this duo.
Are Sasha Farber and Jenn Tran starting a romance?
Meanwhile, fans were hoping that Sasha and his DWTS partner, Bachelorette star Jenn Tran, might be beginning their own romance. When Sasha sweetly kissed Jenn on her forehead during their Little Mermaid-themed dance on “Disney Night,” the ballroom wanted a smooch on the lips. However, Sasha responded that he wanted to make the dance “elegant.”
In a surprise elimination, Sasha and Jenn were sent home during “Halloween Nightmares.” That was doubly cruel since Sasha is obsessed with Halloween and scaring people. Then Jenn shared a sweet comment about her dance partner. “I can’t even imagine a life without Sasha at this point,” she stated. I join judge Derek Hough in shipping this couple.
Dancing with the Stars Season 33 returns on Tuesday, November 12 at 8/7c on ABC and Disney+.
