'Dancing With the Stars' Pro Sasha Farber's Dating History Over the Years

Dancing With the Stars pro Sasha Farberhas had a busy few years in the romance department.

The dancer has been linked to three high-profile women: longtime love and fellow DWTS proEmma Slater, Bachelorette alum Jenn Tran and Pretty Little Liars star Janel Parrish.

"I hate dating. But it takes like a sec, you got to meet the person. There's a lot that goes into when you want to find someone special," Farber said on the "Casual Chaos" podcast in January 2026, noting that DWTS has a history of showmances turning into real relationships. "[On the show], you're just thrown in. ‘Let's go. Hi, nice to meet you. OK, we are going to rub hips. We are going to dip. We are going to do this. I want to get in your face here. You have to really look at me.'"

Here's a look at where each of Farbers' relationships stands - and how they unfolded:

Farber and Slater met in 2009 and started dating in 2011. Three years in, they paused the romance but kept working together on ABC's Dancing With the Stars.

In a December 2014 Glamour interview, the U.K. native opened up about their bond beyond a romantic relationship.

"It goes through moments, but I think the world of Sasha. I really do," she said. "I wouldn't have been so close to him for three years of my life. He's just the best person. I don't think we're supposed to finish together. I think there are other people that might make us both individually happy, but I'm always going to be his best friend."

The two reconnected in 2015 and Farber proposed on DWTS in October 2016. The couple wed in 2018. They split in February 2023 and finalized their divorce the following year.

Despite the breakup, Farber and Slater have stayed friendly. In a TikTok shared by Slater in March 2026, Farber mouthed, "Your ex-husband is so attractive," and Slater responded, "But you're my ex-husband." After fans criticized the chummy dynamic, Slater fired back.

"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," she wrote.

In a clip posted to Farber's Instagram in April 2026, the Hallmark actress appeared alongside the dancer as the two danced in a parking lot.

"She's still got it @janelparrish 🔥," Farber captioned the video, which Parrish reshared alongside the caption, "When you ask @sashafarber1 to teach you a dance in the parking lot."

Days later, Parrish confirmed her separation from husband Chris Long after eight years of marriage.

Parrish and Farber both previously appeared on season 19 of DWTS in 2014, when Parrish was partnered with pro Val Chmerkovskiy and Farber was part of the show's troupe. Almost a decade later, Parrish and Farber hard-launched their romance in April 2026.
