"Dancing With the Stars" Season 21 contestant Alek Skarlatos, 23, is reportedly dating his "Switch-Up Week" partner Emma Slater, 26. On Monday night, the "DWTS" couple received raved reviews from the four judges for their connection while on the dance floor.
In an interview with People Magazine, Slater said that she kind of felt they would have a strong connection the minute they started their steamy rumba routine. The professional dancer told the publication that she's also looking forward to watching the episode when she gets home.
"From the first day of rehearsal, we were really comfortable with each other. Some people just have that energy that you can have a laugh with straight away and just do normal stuff with," she said.
Following their performance, "Dancing With the Stars" host Erin Andrews asked Skarlatos and Slater if there's a chance that they would go out on a real date.
"It's funny because now we've had more questions about the date than we've had actually between the two of us," she said on the show.
Skarlatos added, "I've got a truck and there are some mountains in Oregon. So we can go straight up into the mountains in the truck and look at the stars."
When asked what food they will most probably have on their first date night, Slater said that she wants to have Greek food, according to Fashion N Style.
Meanwhile, Monday night's episode of "Dancing With the Stars" will see Slater's return to her partner Hayes Grier. Skarlatos will also partner with Lindsay Arnold.
Fans can't wait to get updates from Slater and Skarlatos' date, and they are also curious how the budding couple would manage to survive in the upcoming week.
"Dancing With the Stars" Season 21 airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
