It seems like YouTube sensation turned ABC Network's 'Dancing with the Stars' celebrity Bethany Mota, 19 and dance partner Derek Hough are keeping in touch despite not dancing together anymore.
The pair recently appeared on the 19th season of the hit reality show, in which they managed to grab the fourth place. The pair have since then kept in touch. Mota even gave Hough a "parting present."
Hough posted the photo to his Instagram with the caption: "[Bethany] got me a new camera to inspire me to get back into photography. Here's a cool new technique I'm trying called double exposure.#zerophotoshop."
According to Enstarz.com, Hough even posted a photo on Instagram of the two of them together with an emotional caption: "Final picture with my beautiful [Bethany]. Miss you already."
Enstarz also further states that Mota responded to Hough's emotional message with: "This guy is by far one of the most inspiring people I have ever met." Mota continued to gush about her dance partner, and ended with "You are one very beautiful person. Love you @derekhough."
For the duration of their time on DWTS, the pair have been bombarded with rumors regarding their relationship status. While the rumored couple have remained silent about their status, fans could only speculate.
Mota has since then expressed her desire to return to YouTube. "When you go into mainstream TV there are producers and directors you have to go in order to get approval for things," the teen said in an interview with Business Insider's Ignition conference, "But on YouTube, I'm my own director. I'm my own producer. I have an idea and just go with it."
She further explained to Business Insider that she "loves YouTube" and she'll be online "for years to come." Mota currently has over seven million subscribers on her YouTube channel.
