“Emma and Sasha still remain close,” a source close to the couple told PEOPLE. “There’s no bad blood between them.”
They are both currently participating intheDancing with the StarsLIVE 2023 tour.
Fabrer and Slater met in 2009 but didn’t begin a romantic relationship until 2011, only to break up after three years even as they continued to work alongside each other onDWTS.
After rekindling their love in 2015, Farberpopped the questiononDWTSin 2016.
“We’ve been together five-and-a-half years. We bought a house recently andit feels like the natural progression,” Slater said at the time. “My mother said once that marriage should feel natural and not like a surprise. It should be expected because that’s when it’s right and it’s already felt like I’ve been his fiancée and wife for years now. It feels really natural … apart from the heaviness of my arm, it feels quite natural.”
