Jenna Johnson is defending her son.
A Dancing With the Stars professional recently shared a screenshot of a comment in response to a photo she posted of her 2-year-old, Rome (whom she shares with fellow DWTS pro Valentin Chmerkovskiy), using a baby bottle, with the caption “Way too old for this kid to still be using a bottle.” She was not shy about expressing her disapproval towards the unwarranted criticism.
Yesterday, Jenna shared a photo of herself and her son who she hadn’t seen for four days on Instagram Stories, July 5th. Many people had strong opinions about him drinking from a bottle. While I appreciate constructive advice from fellow moms, I am open to feedback within limits. However, one particular woman, whose profile picture shows her holding her own baby, decided to privately message me with criticism instead of offering positive suggestions…
The 31-year-old explained that receiving such messages causes her to question whether it was wise to disclose her personal life to the public.
Jenna went on to say, “Which reality do we inhabit right now? I get that I share my life openly, but when I receive harsh and hurtful comments about my child, I wish to retreat from that exposure.
She continued, expressing her concern for society at large. “Moreover,” she added, “you being a mother, wouldn’t it make you uncomfortable if I, a stranger, were to message you about your child because he was drinking from a bottle? It just seems unusual, doesn’t it?
In the end, she expressed gratitude towards her backing groups and made it clear that those who spread negativity have no place in her community.
As a lifestyle enthusiast, I cherish the bond we share in this online community. Each one of you feels like an extension of my own family. However, it’s important to draw a line when it comes to those who spread negativity or harassment. It’s time for a change, and I kindly ask that you choose to unfollow me, doing so respectfully. Let’s encourage growth and positivity in our lives.
It was evident that her supporters were on her side when she asked the trolls to cease their messages on DM, as Jenna conveyed her appreciation for the backing she received from her followers in another post the next day.
She posted on her Instagram Stories on July 6, “I genuinely teared up while reading all your messages.” Yesterday, she felt a deep pain when witnessing some people’s cruelty, but once again, she was reminded of the amazing compassion within this community. They provided her with the love, encouragement, and kindness that aligns with her beliefs!
Jenna said, ‘Let’s keep in mind that we’re all just trying to make our way through life as best we can.’ She pledged to share only uplifting messages on her feed and hoped it would motivate others to do the same.
Not just Jenna and Val, other personalities from ‘Dancing With the Stars’ have also found love outside of the dance studio. Prepare to learn about more romantic connections from the show!
The season 33 partners dated for about seven months between 2024 and spring 2025.
Showmance or Real Deal: Real deal.
During the last night of its 2025 tour in April 2025, two professional dancers from DWTS shared a kiss on stage while performing their final dance number, which had been stirring speculation about a romantic relationship for several months.
Is it possibly the real deal between them, as suggested by their colleague Ezra Sosa’s reaction of “FINALLY” to a fan-posted video of their kiss?
In the 31st season of their competition, the ex-Bachelorette and the star from ‘Jersey Shore’ fuelled dating speculation. Their playful interactions on social media and evasive answers to questions about a potential relationship only added to the intrigue.
In an interview with TopMob News last December 2022, I shared that being on “Dancing with the Stars” allowed me to connect with other celebrities. Instantly, a friendship blossomed as our humor seems to match quite well. During the competition, my focus was solely on winning and I didn’t have much room for anything else. Despite residing in different states, we’ve been enjoying our time together, so here’s to hoping for more fun times ahead!
Love Story or True Romance:
Skipped the Lust, Tenderness, and Love phase, this one was Dead on Arrival. The duo never progressed to an official relationship, and Gabby unveiled her romance with comedian and TV writer Robby Hoffman in August 2023.
In February 2023, more than a few months since they finished fifth in the 31st season of the dance competition, the pair publicly acknowledged their relationship on Valentine’s Day. The CODA actor labeled a selfie with the choreographer as “My Valentine,” wishing everyone a Happy Valentine’s Day!
Britt and Daniel then announced their engagement in December 2023.

Real Feelings or Just a Crush?:
Based on Alek’s propensity to blush and evade questions regarding his feelings for Emma, he remained tight-lipped with TopMob News, suggesting that this affection might have been genuine. However, since Emma has moved on from the dating scene after Skarlatos’ 2015 escapade, if it was real, it wasn’t deeply committed.
In the thirty-third season of Dancing with the Stars, airing in 2024, there were romantic rumors between a dance pro and a former Bachelorette contestant. Despite their on-screen chemistry during the competition, their relationship off-screen didn’t last long. By June 2025, their bond had weakened significantly after the woman went back to Miami to complete her master’s degree.
Showmance or Real Deal: Unconfirmed.
Following a history of on-and-off dating since 2011, they became engaged on the show in October 2016 and wed in March 2018. However, it was confirmed by TopMob News in August 2022 that after four years of marriage, Slater and Farber have decided to part ways.
Behind the Scenes: Love or Legitimate Bond? Regardless of the end result, they genuinely connected and continue to maintain a friendship, as well as a friendly professional relationship post-separation.
Emma shared with TopMob News that it’s far from a horror scenario. She expressed her deep admiration for Sasha, saying, “We stand together so strongly that my wish is for the absolute best for her. Our bond is genuine and unwavering.
Val and Jenna had been dating since 2015, prior to her becoming a professional dancer. They got engaged in June 2018 and tied the knot in April 2019. In July 2022, they announced that they were expecting their first child together. Their son, named Rome Valentin, was born in January 2023.
In an interview with TopMob News in May 2023, Val expressed that life is simply wonderful. He added that becoming a father has undeniably amplified his delight for life, his love for his family, and each day brings a fresh lesson as a parent.

After two months of dating, our exclusive sources at TopMob News reveal that they have ended their relationship amicably. A trusted source close to the realtor explained, “They enjoyed each other’s company but ultimately decided that separating was in their best interest. They remain friendly and cordial, and the breakup was not a dramatic one; rather, it simply wasn’t the ideal match or timing.

In 2017, during their seventh-place finish, the star of “Total Bellas” and the former professional dancer from “Dancing With the Stars” rekindled their relationship following Nikki’s split with John Cena in 2018. Nikki publicly acknowledged her relationship with Artem in May 2019, and they got engaged later that year.
Shortly after their engagement in Paris, Nikki discovered she was pregnant, giving birth to their son Matteo Artemovich Chigvintsev in 2020. However, the couple parted ways in 2024, two weeks after Artem’s arrest on suspicion of domestic violence. Despite this, the Napa County District Attorney’s office decided not to file charges against him following a thorough investigation and evaluation of the evidence.

Is their relationship more of a TV spectacle or genuine love? I’m sorry to say, but it turned out to be a show for the cameras. According to various sources, they parted ways in December 2018, attributing their split to the challenges of long-distance and hectic schedules.
On December 5, 2015, the two skilled dancers became officially engaged, having been together since 2012. Maks popped the question onstage at the SWAY: A Dance Trilogy event held in Miami. Six months later, they welcomed their first child, Shai, into their lives. In July 2017, these lovebirds exchanged wedding vows during a grand ceremony. Then, Rio arrived in June 2023, followed by Milan in July 2024, expanding their family to three sons.
