‘Dancing With the Stars’ couple Kym Johnson and Robert Herjavec tie the knot
Former “Dancing with the Stars” duo Kym Johnson and Robert Herjavec, officially married in Los Angeles on Sunday.
According to People, the bride looked absolutely stunning in her Monique Lhuillier strapless gown as she walked down the aisle with her mother and father. Johnson, now Kym Johnson Herjavec, walked towards her groom with the song “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” playing in the background.
“I hope I can speak and that I’m not sobbing with happiness,” Johnson told People three days before the wedding. “I’m sure I’ll be overcome with emotion.”
During the reportedly lavish wedding event, DWTS judge Carrie Ann Inaba and alums Joey Fatone, Lance Bass, Derek Hough, Mark Ballas and Donny Osmond were among the 250 guests in attendance for Johnson and Herjavec’s special day.
Johnson and Herjavec fell in love during DWTS rehearsals in 2015 and continued to date since. Johnson said that she didn’t think of them finding love in each other, but she stated that things between them just kept getting better. The two got engaged in March.
“I’m just so happy to be going through life with Robert,” Johnson gushed. “He’s the most incredible person.”
This is the first marriage of the 39-year-old of the Australian professional ballroom dancer, while it’s the second for Herjavec. The 53-year-old is previously married to Diane Plese, whom he separated with in 2014 and officially got divorced this year. Now, Herjavec is happily in love and married to his DWTS co-star.
“I enjoy every minute I spend with Kym,” Herjavec shared. “When I met her, I felt complete.”
Having met as dance partners, the newlyweds reminisce from when their romance first started as they reportedly performed two dance numbers for their guests. The lovebirds were all smiles as they danced to “At Last” by Etta James and were later joined by the entire bridal party during the song “I Got Bills to Pay” by LunchMoney Lewis.
