Jenna Johnson and Val Chmerkovskiy started out as colleagues on Dancing With the Stars and ended up as a happily married couple in real life. The pair first crossed paths in 2014 when Johnson became a DWTS troupe member. Chmerkovskiy had already been competing as a pro on the ABC competition series since season 13, which premiered in 2011. They were friends at first but took their relationship to the next level and started dating in 2015. Johnson and Chmerkovskiy dated quietly for a few months before eventually calling it quits. Chmerkovskiy briefly moved on with season 23 DWTS contestant Amber Rose, but he and Johnson found their way back to each other in the end. In June 2018, Chmerkovskiy got down on one knee during a romantic trip to Italy. The twosome exchanged vows in an April 2019 wedding, and it wasn't long before they had babies on the brain. "I want babies. Val wants babies very badly. We definitely have spoken about it. That's our future. That's what we want when that's gonna happen," Johnson told Us Weekly exclusively in September 2020. Two years later, Johnson announced her pregnancy with a dreamy maternity shoot in July 2022. She gave birth to son Rome the following January. Keep scrolling to see the complete timeline of Chmerkovskiy and Johnson's relationship:
