Jenna Johnson strategically leverages her husband Val Chmerkovskiy on ‘DWTS’ for her benefit – Hollywood Life

Jenna Johnson and Val Chmerkovskiy, the dynamic duo of “Dancing With the Stars,” are not just competitors on the show, they are also a married couple who support each other both on and off the dance floor. In an exclusive interview with Hollywood Life, Jenna revealed how she sees Val as an advantage rather than an opponent when it comes to competing for the Mirrorball Trophy.

“We’re a team,” Jenna explained. “If it’s his win, it’s my win, essentially. You know, the trophy’s coming home to our home. But no, I love being able to have this partner in crime on the show. He’s my biggest cheerleader. I feel like I’m his biggest cheerleader.”

The couple, who started dating in 2015 and got married in 2018, have continued to dance together on the show even after welcoming their son, Rome. Jenna took some time off last year to focus on motherhood, but she is looking forward to returning to the show this fall.

Balancing motherhood and a career in dance is not easy, but Jenna and Val make it work by sharing equal parts in being at home with Rome. Jenna emphasized the importance of finding balance and being present in both her career and personal life.

As fans eagerly anticipate Jenna’s return to “Dancing With the Stars,” she also shared insights into her skincare routine, highlighting the importance of consistency and finding products that bring confidence. With her supportive husband by her side, Jenna is ready to shine both on and off the dance floor.
