The Whirlwind DWTS Romance: From Rumba to Rumors
The connection between Jenn Tran and Sasha Farber began in the fall of 2024 when they were paired together for Season 33 of *Dancing With the Stars*. Despite being eliminated relatively early in the competition, their chemistry was immediately palpable, sparking intense speculation among fans and castmates alike. This dynamic is a common phenomenon known as the "DWTS curse" or "DWTS romance," where the intense closeness and physical nature of dance training often lead to off-screen relationships.
Their partnership was characterized by flirty banter, supportive social media posts, and a clear mutual admiration. Even after their elimination from the competition, they continued to be seen together, with sources close to the production noting their blossoming relationship. At a Thanksgiving feast with their fellow cast members, the pair were even playfully labeled the "Cutest Couple," further fueling the dating rumors that dominated online discussions and fan forums.
However, the couple maintained a policy of keeping their relationship private, never officially confirming the status of their romance to major outlets. This choice to keep their personal lives low-key, especially given Jenn's high-profile history on *The Bachelorette* and Sasha's public marriage to Emma Slater, was a hallmark of their short-lived connection. The relationship, which reportedly began in late 2024, continued quietly until the mid-2025 reports of their separation.
5 Shocking Details Surrounding the Split and Aftermath
The breakup of Jenn and Sasha, while not entirely surprising given their unconfirmed status, brought with it several key details and developments that have kept them in the news cycle through the latter half of 2025. These elements highlight the complexity of dating in the public eye, especially when two major reality TV franchises—*Bachelor Nation* and *DWTS*—are involved.
1. The Unconfirmed, Yet Public, Nature of the Breakup
Despite their efforts to keep the romance under wraps, the news of the split was widely reported in June 2025 by multiple reputable sources. The separation occurred after approximately nine months of dating, a period that saw them share numerous dancing videos and intimate glimpses into their time together. The fact that the end of their relationship was a major news story, even without an official confirmation of the romance itself, underscores the public’s investment in the *DWTS* partnership that turned into a real-life fling.
2. Jenn Tran's 'No Rush' Labeling and the Interview Banter
Before the split, Jenn Tran gave a rare interview update on their relationship, stating that they were "not in any rush" to label their connection. This comment, while seemingly casual, was later viewed in a different light by some fans. Furthermore, some online discussions pointed to an earlier interview where Jenn’s candid "banter" with Sasha was perceived as "rude" or "humiliating" by a segment of the audience, suggesting potential underlying tension in their dynamic.
3. Sasha Farber’s Post-Split Single Confirmation
While neither star issued a formal press release about the separation, Sasha Farber reportedly confirmed his newly single status soon after the news broke. This quiet confirmation, often done through social media hints or subtle comments to close friends, was the closest fans got to an official statement. This move allowed both stars to move forward with their professional and personal lives without a drawn-out public breakup narrative.
4. Drama with Jenn’s Ex-Boyfriend
Adding a layer of complexity to the drama was the involvement of Jenn Tran's former flame from *The Bachelorette*. Amid the initial dating rumors between Jenn and Sasha, her ex-boyfriend reportedly made inflammatory comments about the new relationship. Sasha Farber, known for his generally positive demeanor, took the unusual step of publicly clapping back at the diss. This brief but intense public feud further solidified the reality of Jenn and Sasha's romantic involvement and the external pressures they faced.
5. Jenn Tran’s Quick 'Soft Launch' of a New Romance
In a major update just three months after the reported split from Sasha, Jenn Tran seemingly began "soft launching" a new romance on her social media platforms. This swift move into a new relationship, while expected for a popular reality TV personality, signals Jenn's focus on her future and her commitment to moving past the *DWTS* whirlwind fling. The new relationship is currently very private, with fans eagerly awaiting any official details about the new man in the Bachelorette alum's life as she balances her personal life with her demanding Physician Assistant studies in Miami.
What’s Next for the DWTS and Bachelorette Stars?
Both Jenn Tran and Sasha Farber are focusing on their individual careers in the wake of their separation. Jenn continues to prioritize her academic goals, aiming to complete her Physician Assistant degree, a long-term goal that often requires her to be in Miami for clinical hours. Her television career on *The Bachelorette* and *DWTS* has provided her with a massive platform, but her commitment to medicine remains constant. The public will undoubtedly be watching for the official debut of her new romance.
Sasha Farber, a veteran of the ballroom, is expected to continue his professional dancing career. His history on *Dancing With the Stars* is extensive, and he remains one of the show's most beloved professional dancers. His involvement in future seasons, choreography projects, and dance tours will keep him busy. While his marriage to Emma Slater and his romance with Jenn Tran have both ended, his professional reputation as a talented choreographer and supportive partner remains intact, ensuring his continued presence in the entertainment world.
The story of Jenn and Sasha serves as a reminder of the intense, fleeting connections that can form under the bright lights of reality television. Their low-key, post-show romance captured the curiosity of millions, and while it ultimately didn't last, their time together on *DWTS* Season 33 and the subsequent nine months will be a memorable chapter in both of their public narratives.
