“I was completely shocked,” exclaimed Former DWTS Pro and 2-time Mirror Ball
Champion, Kym Johnson, of the
6.5 carat, emerald-cut Sparkler resting atop her left, ring finger; “I can’t
stop staring at the ring.It’s
unbelievable,” she gushed!
The “Unbelievable” object in question was, of course,
a newly received Engagement Ring; and, it was put there by none other than ABC’s Shark Tank Star and (according to Wikipedia) Multi-Millionaire, Robert Herjavec! Following their first meeting on the hit Reality
Dance Program, Dancing With The Stars,
in the Spring of 2015, Robert &
Kym, who were paired up together for the show’s 10th Anniversary extravaganza, Season 20, remained in the
Ballroom all the way up until Week 08 of the Competition when their
Elimination caused them to fall just short of the Season’s Semifinals, landing
the duo in a solid 5th Place overall, along with fellow Competing
Couple, Chris Soules and Witney Carson.
Rumors flew concerning the Couple regarding their obvious chemistry on and off the Dance
Floor all during their time together on the show; but, the lovebirds remained
steadily coy, refusing to give any sort of official credibility to the Sparks
that had ignited between them while still in the Glitter Dome.
Robert & Kym's long-awaited KISS
during their Contemporary Dance.
DWTS - S20, Wk08
Just Months later, by the Fall of that same year, Robert and Kym finally brought their long-suspected Relationship from the shadows, going public, at last, in September.
On February 27th, 2016, nearly a year to the day since the couple’s
first, fateful meeting in a Dance Rehearsal Studio, Herjavec popped the
question to his former dance partner, Johnson, setting the romantic scene with scattered Rose Petals and an inflatable, Swan
Pool Float in the swimming pool, on which, set the all important Jewelry, awaiting Kym’s delightful
discovery!
“It was really a magical moment,” Kym would later
relate, according to people.com, “I
was just so happy!”
But the gestures didn’t stop there!According to People, Kym’s new Fiancé thought that the duo’s celebration
afterwards should be a family affair, going as far as to fly Kym’s mother all
the way from Down Under, in Australia!
“It was very special,” said Johnson of the event,
which reportedly also included fellow DWTS
Cast members, Emma Slater, Edyta Sliwinska, Anna Trebunskaya, and Cheryl Burke!
Yes, it’s clear that, despite not coming away with a
shining, DWTS Mirror Ball Trophy,
Robert and Kym had departed the show with a prize infinitely more dear - a
lasting, loving relationship that seems uniquely well founded, as was described
by Kym to People, “We were friends at
first, and we got to know each other on a friendship level; I think that’s
really important … That developed into something else, and it’s really
great.We’re both each other’s number
one fans,”!

The loving couple of 8 months first met while competing together on Dancing With The Stars' 10th Anniversary Season,
Robert & Kym DWTS Season 20
but kept fans guessing as to their relationship status and their budding romance, well under wraps until after departing from the show.
Finishing their Season in 6th Place, the Dancing Duo may not have won the Golden Mirror Ball; but, they have certainly gained something far greater, each other!
"I'm grateful," Herjavec recently expressed on People.com of his meeting now-girlfriend Johnson while competing on the show; and, "It's been great," added the long-time Business Investor, while the former DWTS Australian judge says about their time together, "It feels like a lifetime ago," and "We're really happy!"
Robert Herjavec and Kym Johnson ... In love.
The star couple also revealed whilst being interviewed a mutual interest in life's simple pleasures when Robert described " ... Kym cooking at home" as his favorite Date Night, and Kym shared, "We like to hang out on the couch and watch movies."
And on the pair's latest watch list? DWTS' newest Season!
"Bindi is my favorite," the former Pro admitted, "I'm going to be backing her. Us Aussies stick together," she declared, before adding, "I'm interested in seeing Gary Busey, too."!
