Carlos & Alexa PenaVega: DWTS Nearly Broke Our Marriage

Carlos and Alexa PenaVega, married for 12 years, recently reflected on their time as the first married couple to compete on Dancing With the Stars in 2015. Alexa admitted that Carlos' competitive nature and jealousy made her experience on the show much less enjoyable than it could have been.

Carlos PenaVega acknowledged his struggles with imagining his wife spending extensive time dancing with another male professional. He stated that doing the show together was essential, as he would not have been able to cope with her competing alone. Despite the challenges, the couple aimed to showcase the beauty of marriage through their participation.
