Kym Johnson and Robert Herjavec met and fell in love while they were partners in Season 20 of Dancing With the Stars in 2015. The pair came in sixth place, but left the show with much more than a Mirrorball Trophy.
Now, Johnson is returning to the show as a guest judge for Season 34âs Dedication Night. But has her relationship with Herjavec withstood the last 10 years? Scroll down for updates!
Are Kym Johnson and Robert Herjavec still together?
Yes, Johnson and Herjavec are still together. The businessman popped the question to Johnson in February 2016, less than one year after they first met. They wasted no time tying the knot, ultimately marrying on July 31, 2016.
âI enjoy every minute I spend with Kym. When I met her, I felt complete,â Herjavec gushed at the time.
In September 2025, Johnson paid tribute to Herjavec on his 63rd birthday. âHappy Birthday to the man who we love more than anything @robertherjavec đđ we hope you enjoyed all of your favorite Croatian and Australian desserts đđ· đŠđș Proud of the pavlova the kids and I made !!â she wrote.
In a 2024Â interview, Johnson revealed that she and Herjavec currently split their time between Canada and her native Australia.
What is Kym Johnson and Robert Herjavecâs age difference?
Johnson and Herjavec have a 14-year age difference. As of press time, she is 49 years old and he is 63 years old. When they met, they were 38 and 52, respectively.
Do Kym Johnson and Robert Herjavec have children?
Yes, Johnson and Herjavec are parents to twins Hudson and Haven, whom Johnson gave birth to in April 2018. She was 41 years old at the time.
The twins were conceived via in vitro fertilization (IVF). âI had frozen my eggs when I was 35, thinking I was doing something that would help me in the future, but none of those eggs were healthy,â Johnson previously shared. âWe had been trying naturally for a while and having some trouble, so we did IVF. We actually put two embryos in, so we knew there was a chance we could have twins.â
What happened to Robert Herjavecâs first wife?
Before he was with Johnson, Herjavec was married to optometrist Diane Plese for more than two decades. They tied the knot in 1990 and separated in July 2014. Herjavec announced that he and Plese were divorcing in March 2015, just days before he made his DWTS debut. Their split was finalized in June 2016, one month before he and Johnson tied the knot.
In 2019, a judge ruled that Herjavec had to pay Plese $125,000 a month in support, as well as a total of $25 million in assets, according to the Toronto Sun. In her judgment, the judge noted that Herjavec was âinvolved in an extramarital affairâ in 2014.
Herjavec dated Danielle Vasinova on and off from January 2014 to February 2015. In 2017, he sued her for extortion, claiming she tried to get him to pay millions of dollars amid false claims of sexual assault. The Shark Tank star also sued for intentional infliction of emotional distress and public disclosure of private facts, according to People. He only requested $1 in damages and an end to the alleged extortion.
Vasinova fired back with a lawsuit of her home, claiming Herjavec raped her, which he denied, per TMZ. Both lawsuits were dismissed in 2018.
Does Robert Herjavec have a relationship with his older children?
With Plese, Herjavec shares three older children: daughters Caprice and Skye, and son Brendan.
After Herjavec and Pleseâs split, he revealed that the kids wouldnât speak to him. âEveryone has their kryptonite,â he told People. âFor me, it was my kids. It took me to a place I never thought I would go.â
Herjavec said he even thought about ending his life when he hit rock bottom amid the separation and estrangement from his children. He has not given a recent update on where he and his three older children stand, so itâs not clear where their relationship is at now.
