Are DWTS Partners Jenn Tran and Sasha Farber Dating? Speculation
After fans watched Jenn Tran fall in love and get her heart broken during season 21 of The Bachelorette, she tried to shake it off by competing on season 33 of Dancing With the Stars. She was paired with pro Sasha Farber, and viewers are now wondering what their relationship status is after they sparked romance rumors.
Are ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Partners Jenn Tran and Sasha Farber Dating?
“Jenn and Sasha are dating,” Us Weekly reported on December 18, 2024. The report came after weeks of romance rumors, which first sparked after their elimination from DWTS on October 29, 2024, when they hinted that their story together wasn’t over when they shared a cryptic TikTok video.
“Private rehearsals starting ASAP,” Jenn wrote on the clip posted on October 31, 2024, which showed herself knocking on Sasha’s door at home. Sasha then opened the door, and they embraced in a sweet hug and while appearing giddy.
“When one door closes another door opens,” Jenn mouthed along to a viral sound in the clip. “We so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the ones that open for us.”
Several fans took to the comments section to wonder if they are more than friends. “BABE IS THIS A SOFT LAUNCH,” one person asked. Another chimed in, “Is this the part where you guys fall in love or what?”
Meanwhile, two DWTS stars also alluded that Jenn and Sasha are dating by responding to the clip. “I give this a 100 [smiling emoji] Happy for you two,” Derek Hough wrote alongside a red heart emoji. Meanwhile, professional dancer Ezra Sosa commented, “I ship it.”
The comments only continued to fuel speculation, and one fan asked Derek if his remark was “confirmation” of their suspected romance.
Jenn Tran’s Brother James Fuels Sasha Farber Dating Rumors
The speculation continued when Jenn shared a video that documented her journey on DWTS via Instagram on November 3, 2024.
“Am I a star or are you a star?” Jenn asked Sasha during a rehearsal, referencing the show’s name. He then grabbed her hand as he responded, “You are my star!”
Clips continued of the pair dancing on the show leading up to their final performance before their elimination. “From our first rehearsal to our last @sashafarber1,” she captioned the video, which was set to Taylor Swift’s “Long Live.”
Jenn’s brother, James, then continued to fuel dating rumors by leaving a suspicious comment under the clip. “When’s the wedding rehearsal?” he wrote.
Meanwhile, other social media users also took to the comments to inquire about their relationship status. “What a journey you two had. But just like the song says: ‘It was the end of a decade but the start of an age.’ I’m sure many happy days are ahead for you two,” one person wrote, and another chimed in, “Did anyone else see Jenn kiss his cheek/forehead at the very end clip of their last rehearsal or am I delusional ?!?”
Jenn Tran and Sasha Farber Relationship Updates
In the weeks that followed this social media activity, Jenn and Sasha continued to post together on Instagram and TikTok. While they continued to remain coy about their relationship status, Jenn didn’t hide the fact that she was crashing at Sasha’s house after DWTS.
The two then spent Thanksgiving together. On the morning of the holiday, they volunteered to feed the unhoused community in Los Angeles. They also had dinner at Alfonso Ribiero’s home. Several other DWTS cast members were in attendance, including Sasha’s ex-wife, Emma Slater. Around this time, Sasha also wrote an Instagram tribute to Jenn in honor of her 27th birthday and she had kind words for him in her own tribute following the DWTS finale.
After more public sightings, Sasha and Jenn took their romance international with a trip to Canada in early December. They were in town to attend Taylor Swift’s Eras tour and also made sure to explore the city of Vancouver together.
Upon returning home to the States, the duo hard-launched the relationship after Jenn hosted a birthday celebration in L.A. She shared several Instagram posts from the bash, but one in particular featured only photos of her and Sasha. “The pics you gremlins have been waiting for,” she captioned the post.
Jenn will seemingly be leaving Los Angeles in 2025 to continue her education as a physician assistant student (her school is in Miami), so fans will have to wait and see if this love lasts when she and Sasha aren’t in the same city.
Who Else Has Jenn Tran Dated?
Prior to her rumored romance with Sasha, fans watched Jenn pursue a romance with Joey Graziadei during season 28 of The Bachelor. After she was sent home, she got a second chance at love when she was named the season 21 Bachelorette. However, the season didn’t have a happy ending and Jenn revealed that she called off her engagement from Devin Strader during the After the Final Rose special September 2024.
Following her split from Devin, Jenn sparked romance rumors with Jonathon Johnson – who competed on her season of The Bachelorette – when they started spending time together. Not only did they appear in several social media posts together, but Jonathon even supported Jenn during her time on DWTS.
Who Else Has Sasha Farber Dated?
Sasha’s most high-profile romance was with fellow DWTS pro Emma Slater. After meeting in 2009, their relationship turned romantic in 2011 and they started dating. Emma and Sasha briefly split in 2014, though they rekindled their romance in 2015. The pair got engaged during a live broadcast of the show in 2016, and they tied the knot in 2018.
However, their love story wasn’t meant to be and the professional dancers split in February 2023. Emma and Sasha’s divorce was later finalized in May 2024.
