Well
love
can
happen
anywhere
and
with
anyone!
After
the
grand
premiere
of
the
new
season
of
Dancing
With
The
Stars,
we
decided
to
take
down
the
list
of
dancing
couples
who
made
news
not
just
for
their
dancing
abilities
but
also
for
their
hookups.
'The
Bachelor
and
The
Bachelorette'
is
not
the
only
TV
show
where
you
find
love
and
a
good
partner.
Dancing
With
The
Stars
has
been
another
(informal)
platform
where
stars
fell
in
love
with
their
choreographers.
Most
of
the
affairs
started
off
strong
but
ended
eventually.
Maksim
Chmerkovskiy
has
been
in
news
for
his
many
link
ups
at
DWTS
seasons.
For
example,
Maksim
has
been
romantically
linked
with
Karina
Smirnoff
(once
fiance)
and
even
Meryl
Davis
who
is
apparently
'just
friends'.
However,
the
rumoured
boyfriend
of
Jennifer
Lopez
has
been
very
impressive
when
it
comes
to
dancing.
Some
actually
fell
in
love
but
many
just
tried
showmance
to
get
more
votes
and
be
in
the
news
as
well.
Here
is
a
look
at
the
hookups
we
have
seen
on
Dancing
With
The
Stars.

With
The
Stars:
Hookups
&
Breakups
Karina
Smirnoff
and
Mario
Lopez
This
is
the
longest
hookup
seen
in
Dancing
With
The
Stars.
The
couple
dated
for
about
2
years
after
being
partners
in
season
3.
However,
in
2008,
they
broke
up.
Mario
Lopez's
infidelity
was
rumoured
to
be
the
reason
behind
their
split.
Karina
Smirnoff
and
Maksim
Chmerkovskiy
Dancers
Maksim
and
Karina
got
engaged
shortly
after
her
split
with
Mario
Lopez.
Unfortunately,
the
professional
dancers
called
off
their
engagement
the
same
year.
Meryl
Davis
and
Maksim
Chmerkovskiy
Maksim
has
made
many
news
in
every
season
of
DWTS.
He
was
also
rumoured
to
be
dating
Meryl
but
later
it
was
said
that
they
were
'just
friends'.
Sabrina
Bryan
and
Mark
Ballas
We
don't
know
if
it
was
a
real
or
a
showmance,
but
after
dating
for
a
few
months,
the
dancing
couple
who
starred
in
season
5
called
it
an
end.
However,
Sabrina
cheered
for
her
ex-beau
the
following
year
on
the
show.
Shannon
Elizabeth
and
Derek
Hough
After
dancing
on
the
floor
in
season
6,
the
couple
dated
for
nearly
a
year
and
then
broke
up.
"Hi
everyone,
we
wanted
you
all
to
know
directly
from
us,
that
Shannon
&
I
have
decided
to
end
our
relationship
as
boyfriend
&
girlfriend...,"
Hough
tweeted.
"However,
we
love
and
care
about
each
other
very
much
and
will
remain
friends
and
in
each
others
lives,"
Elizabeth
concluded
on
Twitter.
Chuck
Wicks
and
Julianne
Hough
They
were
the
only
couple
who
entered
the
Dancing
With
The
Stars
competition
when
they
were
dating.
However,
after
elimination,
the
couple
split
shortly
after.
