Sasha promised to be there for the right reasons, too.
“She’s catching me up on absolutely everything that happened, and it sounds horrible,” the 40-year-old continued. “And I’m here for her, and I’m going to support her. And I just met her, but I feel like I’m gonna be there for her all the time.”
Dancing With the Stars season 33 premiered two weeks later. And as judge Derek Hough told Jenn, “Forget about The Bachelorette because you found your perfect match right here with Sasha.”
While the six-time mirrorball champion was referring to the duo’s dancing partnership, it wasn’t long before viewers started to wonder if their bond could be something more. Especially because Sasha (who was previously married to fellow DWTS pro Emma Slater) and Jenn (who first appeared on DWTS competitor Joey Graziadei’s season of The Bachelor) fueled dating speculation with their playful social media posts and coy answers about where they stood.
“We have so much fun together,” she told E! News after the week two episode later in September. And when correspondent Will Marfuggi asked if there were “more than friendship vibes,” Sasha simply replied, “Guys, guys, guys, come on.”
