‘DWTS’ Mark Ballas Confirms Engagement [TV NEWS]

It seems like something must be in the air over there at ABC's Dancing with the Stars. Word has it that hot on the tail of Witney Carson's getting married at New Year's, cast favorite Mark Ballas has announced that he and his longtime girlfriend, BC Jean, have also gotten engaged. Although, Kym Johnson and Shark Tank star, Robert Herjavec, haven't mentioned anything about getting married in 2016, the reality TV star insists she and her billionaire boyfriend are still going strong.

After months of doing his best to keep the whole thing on the down low, Mark Ballas is finally coming clean about his relationship status.

Following the tabloids breaking the story earlier this month, the Dancing with the Stars pro finally copped to his engagement on Instagram today -- explaining that he and BC Jean just wanted to keep the happy news to themselves until firmly in the new Year (via E! News):

"Guess the cats out the bag. We are happy to share with you all that on [November 25,] I asked BC to be my wife. It was the best day of my life & it couldn't have been more perfect.

"We kept it on the quiet for a while as we just wanted to soak it in over the holidays, but we are excited to share the news with you all now."

They too might not quite be ready to announce an engagement, but Kym Johnson recently assured People magazine that her relationship with her former Dancing with the Stars partner, Robert Herjavec, is still going strong:

"We were friends first, and we got to know each other on a friendship level; I think that's really important.

"That developed into something else, and it's really great.

"We're both each other's number one fans, and have respect for each other."

At this rate, all Dancing with the Stars' single fans may be out of eligible pros to fawn over before the 2016 season even gets started.
