A rep for the star confirmed today that Kate Upton and Maksim Chmerkovskiy have officially started dating.
It’s unclear how long the two have been dating but rumors have been circulating since early this summer. Back in July, a source said that Upton and Chmerkovskiy were doing their best to avoid being seen together in public.
The source said: “The two did not want to be photographed together and did the best they could to avoid the cameras… They left the event around midnight and went to Catch sushi bar, that turns into a club. The two partied until the early hours.”
Upton and Chmerkovskiy haven’t commented directly on their relationship status yet. Here’s a look at the couple’s first public outing together. Do you think there’s any doubt about their relationship status?
