DWTS' Emma Slater and Alan Bersten Spark Romance Rumors With Passionate Onstage Kiss


The world of ballroom and reality television lit up this weekend as Dancing with the Stars pros Emma Slater and Alan Bersten ignited romance speculation with a steamy onstage kiss during the grand finale of the DWTS: Live! 2025 tour. The moment, captured by an eager fan and quickly shared across social media platforms, sent shockwaves through the DWTS fandom—and the internet hasn’t stopped buzzing since.

The Moment That Started It All

It happened on April 19 in Rosemont, Illinois, during the final stop of the DWTS live tour. Midway through a passionate dance routine, Slater and Bersten shared a kiss that seemed far too authentic to be purely for performance. The crowd erupted in cheers, and the viral moment made its rounds on TikTok and Instagram within hours.

Neither Slater nor Bersten has publicly confirmed a romantic relationship, but the body language, the chemistry, and now, this very public kiss, all point toward something more than just professional camaraderie.

A History of Dance—and Love

Emma Slater, a long-standing DWTS professional, was previously married to fellow pro Sasha Farber. The couple finalized their divorce in 2023 after several years of dancing both on and off the ballroom floor. While the split was amicable, fans were curious to see who Emma might date next.

Alan Bersten, who won season 28 of DWTS with model Hannah Brown, briefly dated fellow contestant Alexis Ren back in 2018. Since then, he’s kept his romantic life relatively low-key, making this surprise moment with Slater even more headline-worthy.

Social Media Speaks Volumes

Adding fuel to the fire, Bersten posted a heartfelt Instagram photo shortly after the show, showing him and Slater in an affectionate pose. The caption? A cryptic: “What a way to end the tour… #Grateful.” Fans immediately flooded the comments with heart emojis and questions about their relationship status.

Slater hasn’t commented publicly, but she did reshare a few fan videos of the kiss on her Instagram Story—without offering any explanation or denial.

Are They or Aren’t They?

At this point, it’s all speculation. Representatives for both dancers have declined to comment on their relationship, leaving fans to piece together clues from body language, social posts, and performance chemistry.

Whether this onstage kiss was the beginning of something new or simply a theatrical flourish to end a successful tour, one thing is certain: Emma Slater and Alan Bersten have the world watching.

In the glittery, drama-filled universe of Dancing with the Stars, romance rumors are nothing new. But when two of the most beloved pros share such an intimate moment under the spotlight, it’s impossible not to get swept up in the excitement.

Whether love is truly blossoming or not, Emma and Alan’s undeniable chemistry has already made them the couple to watch in 2025.
