Season 20’s Robert Herjavec
and Kym Johnson:
In Love, Engaged, and “So Happy”!
 |
| Robert Herjavec and Kym Johnson engaged! |
“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.

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,”!
