The season where "Dancing With The Stars" fans get to witness the undeniable chemistry between Olympian Meryl Davis and dancing partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy may have been over, but there is no denying the fact that they are rooting for the two to get together in real life. Last December 17, the two reunited again on the dance floor for "SWAY - A Dance Trilogy," a dance extravaganza in Westbury, New York, People said. Coincidentally, the show will also showcase numbers from two of Chmerkovskiy's reported exes, Peta Murgatroyd and Karina Smirnoff.
When OK! Magazine asked Chmerkovskiy about the fact that he was to perform on the same show along with his exes, he said, " Look, people are going to think of me whatever they're going to think of me. I'm a big guy. I'm not a womanizer. I don't sleep around. Whatever I do, I just have a lot of fun. I'm a good person, I'm a good friend, and I'm a good human being. That's how I was taught and that's how I live my life. So, if you break up with someone, it doesn't you have to mean to be enemies automatically. I treat them my way and the result is that I stay friends with people. They were amazing enough to be in a relationship with them to begin with, right? So, if something didn't work out, it doesn't mean they are no longer amazing people."
He also clarified his real relationship status with the Olympian. He added, "I love Meryl. We're great together. She's an awesome friend. She said, "I'm doing it, 100%." And here we are. She's an amazing chick and I love her for that."
Ahead of the show, the pair were seen taking photos with fans at Deer Park Town Center for the "Shall We Dance on Ice" program, DailyHerald.com reported. Which brings us to the question: is he capitalizing his great chemistry with Davis for the sake of fame?
He answered to OK! Magazine, "I don't care, honestly. If people want to think something, they're going to think that. It's not something I'm going to waste my time on. I think honestly we give a lot of people something with our partnership - the way it was, and the chemistry that we had, and how passionate it was in our performances week in and week out. That overwhelming feeling people were getting while watching us like, "No, I have to attribute it to that. There's no other way that this can come out this way." And so, there's nothing that we can say."
