Adele Zaikman & Allen Genkin: DWTS Sparks Fly Off-Screen

Adele Zaikman, who recently secured a spot as a professional dancer on Dancing With the Stars: The Next Pro, is reportedly romantically linked with fellow contestant Allen Genkin. Their connection reportedly began during the spin-off competition series where they were rivals but also partners for two distinct dance routines.

Genkin has expressed strong admiration for Zaikman, calling her "special" and "one of a kind." He praised her as a "beautiful person inside and out" and emphasized their positive working dynamic. Zaikman, while eliminated from DWTS on September 15, 2026, shared her excitement about dancing with Genkin, describing it as a "dream come true."

When prompted about a potential romance on a podcast on September 19, 2026, Zaikman laughed and acknowledged the widespread fan support, noting they receive many messages daily from people "shipping" them. However, she clarified that she and Genkin are not officially dating, though she implied the possibility remains open.
