A Cute Love Story of Britt Stewart and Daniel Durant
Britt and Daniel met on the Dancing with the Stars season 31 set, which aired from September to November 2022.
They were originally dance partners on the show, where they marked fifth place.
Shortly after, the duo went public with their relationship that they are dating. On 2023 Valentine’s Day, the CODA actor shared a sweet selfie of them embracing on a boardwalk and captioned it,
“My Valentine. Happy Valentine’s Day!”
Similarly, Durant told PEOPLE that their romance didn’t blossom until they were eliminated from the competition. He clarified,
“I’m a really competitive person, I wanted to win this thing and so I saw that in her and we trained,”
He noted that Stewart instantly learned American Sign Language (ASL) from him as she taught him to dance. As a result, they didn’t need his ASL interpreter as often during rehearsals, which helped their relationship to grow stronger.
Stewart described,
“When I met him and found out he was my partner on Dancing with the Stars, immediately I was like, I must learn ASL because I’m teaching him how to dance. I’m not going to use his interpreter,”
She continues reflecting on how their friendship has developed over time, expressing,
“It’s funny, I remember us meeting. I remember us as teammates. I remember us as best friends, and then I remember us together. And now it feels like we’ve just been together for forever.”
