What to Know
Dancing With the Stars pros Emma Slater and Sasha Farber may have ended their romantic relationship two years ago, but that doesn’t mean that they don’t still have to spend time together occasionally since they’re both part of the DWTS universe. Fortunately, these two seem to be handling it like the pros they are — even if their new TikTok together is leaving their fans with all kinds of feelings.
They teamed up to make a lighthearted TikTok video.

Emma shared the video on her TikTok account on March 8, and it shows the two of them hanging out together — likely because they’re both touring with DWTS. When the camera is on Sasha, the screen reads, “Your ex-husband is sooooo attractive,” and then it flips to Emma looking dumbfounded.
“But you’re my ex-husband,” says Emma, to which Sasha responds by putting on his sunglasses and nodding while he smiles.
In both her caption and in a comment on her post, Emma — who is currently dating fellow DWTS pro Alan Bernsten — made her intentions clear: ““If you can’t handle that exes can be mature and can be friends. I’m sending you love and positive vibes but I also know it’s not my problem to solve. Meant with love, I’ve just healed moved on from that.”
Fans are completely freaking out about it.
The comments on the video are flooded with messages from people who are both excited to see these two together and people who love the way they’ve maintained a friendship, even after their divorce.
“I didn’t even know they were exes, that’s how mature they are about this,” one person commented.
Plenty of others shared that they were able to relate to Sasha and Emma’s dynamic now that they’re no longer a couple. One wrote, “My ex husband is one of my best friends, sometimes relationships don’t work but he was my friend also and I didn’t want to lose that part.”
Fair enough!
Sasha and Emma were married from 2018 to 2024.
In August 2022, news broke that Sasha and Emma were separating after four years of marriage, and their divorce was finalized two years later. Before their breakup, the couple had gotten engaged on an episode of DWTS when Sasha got down on one knee and popped the question on camera after a performance.
Their marriage didn’t last, but their friendship definitely seems to have endured. In December, Sasha commented on a video that Emma shared on Instagram congratulating her current love, Alan, on becoming a finalist on the most recent season of DWTS. He wrote, “congrats guys,” adding a clapping emoji. And of course, if you follow them on social media, you know they do sometimes pop up in each other’s pops.
Now that is how it’s done!
