Two professional dancers from “Dancing with the Stars” finally gave fans what they had been waiting to see for months after they shared a kiss during the last DWTS tour show. Emma Slater and Alan Bersten are together, and they no longer feel the need to dance around it.
Alan Bersten & Emma Slater Kissed During Their Tour Dance Together
Bersten and Slater shared the telling moment at the end of their duet on the “Dancing with the Stars” tour. The final show occurred in Chicago, Illinois, on April 19. The crowd went wild over the telling smooch when it happened.
In a video posted on TikTok, Bersten and Slater are seen doing the dance that has been a regular number in the tour show. This time, however, the performance ends with Bersten kissing Slater.
Cheers could be heard in the audience as the meaning of the moment hit. “Dancing with the Stars” fans have been speculating about a Slater and Bersten romance for quite some time. The two have dropped plenty of hints. However, until this kiss, they had held back from confirming they were more than friends.
One fan on TikTok exclaimed, “I knew this was how they would hard launch during the last show!!!”
Another gushed, “I screamed so hard when this happened! I saw people in the front with phones out and knew someone had to [have] gotten a good view and omg wow!!!!”
DWTS Fans Are Thrilled for the Couple
Fans in the “Dancing with the Stars” subreddit celebrated the hard-launch kiss as well.
“We’ve known for years, but have waited FOREVER for this hard launch. They seem so happy and in love, but I’m glad Sasha also met his match in Jenn, so everyone is happy,” one Redditor wrote.
Slater was previously married to fellow “Dancing with the Stars” pro Sasha Farber. Although they have played somewhat coy as well, Farber and his season 33 partner, Jenn Tran, also seem to have found love with one another on the dance floor.
Another Redditor wrote, “omg??? I know we’ve had this tea for years but it’s wild to see the actual hard launch.”
“Finally. 😍😘 Now let’s stop with all the speculation with this couple and let them live & love in peace,” suggested another “Dancing with the Stars” fan on Reddit.
Someone else shared, “Those smiles… they were READY for that!!”
