Former Dancing With the Stars pro Sasha Farber has nothing but support for his ex-wife Emma Slater and her new boyfriend, Alan Bersten.
“My boyfriend is a finalist. Again,” Slater, 36, captioned an Instagram video on Tuesday, November 18. “What a pure champion. I’m so proud of you.”
Slater posted a video of her and Bersten, 31, kissing after it was announced that he and celebrity partner Elaine Hendrix would be moving forward to the DWTS finale next week.
“And im SO PROUD OF YOU @elaine4animals!! I have a kiss for you also btw,” Slater’s caption continued. “Congratulations you both, you BOTH deserve it so so much. Team Elaine.”
Bersten commented, “I love you baby,” on the post, but eagle-eyed fans were more interested in Farber’s comment.
“Congrats guys,” he wrote, alongside a hand-clapping emoji. Slater responded, “Thanks Sash.”
Slater and Farber were together for years, even getting engaged on DWTS in 2016. The two got married in 2018 but by 2023, they decided to call it quits. Their divorce was finalized in 2024.
Slater offered insight into what went wrong in their marriage during an appearance on “The Viall Files” podcast in 2023. It seems their split was about expanding their family.
“It’s interesting because I do want to have kids, I just don’t want to delay Sasha’s path in having kids because I know that he is ready for that,” she explained. “I don’t want to talk about him too much because that’s really for him to say, but it’s about kids.”
She added, “I do want kids. I don’t know what it is, I’m just figuring that out for myself. It’s not something I take lightly and I don’t want to enter into something that I’m not sure about because I would never do that.”
Us Weekly broke the news in 2024 that Slater had moved on with fellow DWTS pro Bersten. The couple has been showcasing their love throughout this season of the show. Farber, meanwhile, was briefly linked to his former DWTS partner Jen Tran, but a source told Us in June that they had parted ways.
Farber, who has been appearing on the DWTS TikTok live during this season, answered a fan who asked if it was “awkward” between him, Slater and Bersten,
“No, not at all,” Farber said late last month. “Definitely not awkward. I’m really happy for her and Alan and I wish them nothing but the best. That’s all I can say.”
He further noted that “things don’t always work out,” explaining that there’s “no point” for hate.
“What’s the point? So you thank each other for your incredible time that you had together — because, you know, the time that we did have together wasn’t bad, it was amazing — and you move on and you wish the other person nothing but the best,” he continued. “There’s no point of hate, because it would only eat you up inside. So we don’t need that in life, right? Just be present, be happy, and the rest is history.”
