DANCING With the Stars partners Jenn Tran and Sasha Farber are really dating, judge Derek Hough seemingly confirmed in a buried Instagram comment.
The Bachelorette star, 26, and the pro dancer, 40, sparked romance rumors with their touchy-feely behavior on TikTok before their surprise elimination in this week’s show.

On Wednesday, October 31, Jenn posted a new TikTok with Sasha.
“When one door closes, another door opens,” Jenn lipsyncs to a track.
Then Sasha opens the door, revealing a courtyard that appears to be inside his LA property.
The couple then smiles and embraces.
Derek, who is close friends with Sasha off stage, dropped a sweet comment.
“I give this a 100,” he said. “Happy for you two.”
Show fans took this to be confirmation of the long-suspected romance between the two partners.
“They’re definitely dating,” one follower wrote on Reddit.
“I wasn’t convinced they were together until this comment,” said another.
The vast majority of fans were supportive of the new love affair, with one claiming Jenn needs a “mature man” like Sasha, after “she’s had enough heartbreak.”
Jenn and Sasha have been inseparable for weeks even off the stage of the show.
In September, Jenn slipped and called Sasha “babe” as they chowed down on McDonald’s in a TikTok.
Earlier this week, fans suspected Jenn slept over Sasha’s LA home after she was spotted in the same outfit as the night before- when she had dinner at his place.
Even former DWTS pro Cheryl Burke recently predicted Jenn and Sasha were “going to do the dirty at some point.”

While Sasha split from pro dancer wife Emma Slater in 2022, Jenn went through a very public split from fiance Devin Strader just earlier this year.
Jenn claimed that after returning home from their filmed engagement in Hawaii, Devin started “pulling away.”
“I was confused, I didn’t understand because we had just left so happy,” she revealed.
“He basically said he didn’t love me anymore and didn’t feel the same way,” she said, reflecting on the split.
“He was checked out. It wasn’t what he wanted anymore.”
The U.S. Sun later revealed Devin was hit with a restraining order request from an ex-girlfriend in college in Louisiana. (The order was eventually dropped.)
STILL GOING STRONG
Jenn and Sasha were dropped from the show despite their perfect 10 from judge Carrie Ann Inaba.
But judging from the post-elimination TikTok, the pair are still going strong and will continue their romance off the stage.
