Kym Johnson And Robert Herjavec Discuss Dancing With The Stars On Access Hollywood
Kym Johnson and Robert Herjavec were guests on Access Hollywood this morning. They talked about Dancing With The Stars and why he decided to dance. Kym says she thinks Robert is going to surprise a lot of people. I’m love loving this couple. They are so full of charm…
I loved him from Shark Tank and have only become more impressed from what I saw on the rehearsals last night and now this. I’m sure this is hardly an original thought but I could see him making a good run, much longer than I thought he’d last when he was announced. He and Kym are a great pair.
I wonder… are they trying for a showmance? I noticed that in the video, Billy mentions “no rings” (neither of them are wearing wedding rings). Robert holds out his hands and says “no rings”. But there are tons and tons of web articles (last one I saw was written only 5 days ago) that talks about his wife and three kids…. it’s here: http://www.bustle.com/articles/65231-who-is-robert-herjavecs-wife-diane-plese-is-just-as-cool-as-her-shark-tank-spouse
So I wonder… what gives?
Sally, I was thinking the same thing when I heard that remark since he talks about his family pretty often on Shark Tank but I assuned I had missed something or misunderstood. Very strange.
I was under the assumption that Robert and his wife have been separated for awhile. After watching the rehearsal last night you can tell they are flirty with each other but I didn’t see anything that warranted a showmance. Just adorable chemistry.
Gotta love these two! I can well see Robert requesting (and of course getting) Kym because he is a tad short for her. They’re not the best physical pairing. However, their personalities are very compatible and you can already see an excellent chemistry developing between them.
As for the dreaded showmance, I just can’t imagine they’d go that route, especially if he’s married. For one, it seems totally out of character for both of them and (B) surely it would alienate his fans (and any general viewers) who know he’s married. Robert’s the super-savvy businessman, he didn’t get that way making stupid decisions, and I can’t see him allowing TPTB to force him into a showmance. At least I hope I’m right.
I don’t know Robert very well, but, I can’t see Kym showmancing. She seems so genuine and real.
Last time I can think of with Kym was Hines Ward. Kym plays it shrewd – she doesn’t push a showmance, but won’t actively quash one, either. She sort of deflects all of those questions with non-answer-answers. 😛 I just thought it was strange on Robert’s part, but maybe he was playing the same “game” – answer the question you’re asked, but don’t go any farther than that (and let people’s imagination fill in whatever blanks they want to fill in). 😀
I actually know the family personally (his son and I go to school together) and I can say definitively that they would not go that route, these two are very genuinely nice people
So, @LK – Are he and his wife still together? His answer struck me as odd…
Sally, I kind of get the feeling that LK (if they are, indeed, a friend of the family), might have said as much as they want to say on this subject. They answered your initial question–namely, are Robert/Kym trying for a showmance–with a pretty definite “no”.
Kym is so classy and genuinely charming and it seems like they have a great on-screen chemistry. I doubt there will be a showmance; Kym seems too professional to sink to that just to garner votes. I am wondering however, if she has had work done on her face.
I think Kym has a boyfriend. I remember her posting a picture of him with her some time ago. Of course they could have split and I just don’t know of it.
I think both Kym and Robert are too mature to go the showmance route. That’s kids’ stuff. *cough*JanelVal*cough*
I don’t think people should read too too much into this because Billy and Kit are relentless with shoving that down our throats with anyone they can and make it hard for the interviewees. They B and K, obviously think that’s what fans want and or they are too lazy to have more intelligent conversations.
So true Jess. Billy and Kit seemed better last season and now they are being relentless and obnoxious again. They put them on the spot and the film was rolling…so, it could have left them tongue tied.
I would be very surprised if these two went the showmance route (and a little disappointed!). There seems to be genuine chemistry here, which doesn’t necessarily equate to romance. I thought Kirsty & Maks had wonderful chemistry but didn’t for one minute think they were romantically involved.
I’m rooting for this team and I have a feeling he’s going to surprise us on the dance floor.
I’ve watched Robert for years on the Canadian version of Shark Tank before he left for the US show and now on there. I love him. He’s smart , fair, has fun and is Sooo likable. When I saw this pairing I cheered because I think he and Kym are a perfect match for each other. I don’t imagine a showmance, but a genuine affection for each other and strong partnership with lots of chemistry no doubt. If he has a little talent they could be great.
Robert was rumored as being gay.
…but, that’s probably because he looks like Liberace.
Rumored by who, ann? You? I haven’t heard anything.
Me thinks, based on her second comment, that Ann was indeed the source of that particular rumor.
And if he really was rumored, so the fuck what?? Every male pro on this show has been rumored as gay by the small minded people who take one look at what someone does for a living or how they look and label them.
