Emma Slater and Sasha Farber go a long way back.

Emma and Sasha first met on the set of Broadway's Burn the Floor in 2009. They both joined DWTS a year later. They started dating in 2011, and they have been inseparable ever since. As DWTS pros, their life and personal relationships have received considerable media attention — cementing their place as one of the most popular couples appearing on the show.

At this stage, it's uncertain what Season 31 might bring for the stars. Sasha reportedly said that he hopes Becky G will join the cast — which would suggest that he will appear in Season 31. What's more, he and Emma both partook in the DWTS Live Tour 2022 — which would suggest that they might continue to appear on the show regardless of their rumored split.
