From Derek Hough to Allison Holker, after nearly 20 years of ‘DWTS,’ dozens of dancers have come and gone from the ballroom. Check in on their latest

Dancing with the Stars is back!

Over the course of its nearly two-decade run on television, the ABC dancing competition show has seen dozens of professional dancers partner up with their celebrity counterparts. From Derek and Julianne Hough to the Chmerkovskiy brothers and Allison Holker Boss, many of the pros have developed their own celebrity status as they compete for the coveted Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy.

Ahead of DWTS’ season 33 premiere on Tuesday, Sept. 17, see what some of DWTS’ most notable pros are up to now.

Louis Van Amstel

Louis Van Amstel’s history with Dancing with the Stars goes back to the very beginning when he competed on season one with partner Trista Sutter. Over the years, he has competed on numerous seasons; his last appearance was in season 31 with partner Cheryl Ladd.

Outside of the ballroom, Van Amstel founded the dance fitness program LaBlast that offers a variety of classes online as well as masterclasses led by the pro dancer himself.

Van Amstel married Joshua Lancaster in 2017. In 2019, the pair welcomed their first son, Daniel, through adoption, and in 2020 became a family of four with the adoption of their son Jonny.

Edyta Sliwinska

Edyta Śliwińska has been featured on nearly a dozen seasons of DWTS since the series’ first season back in 2005. Her partners have varied from Joey Lawrence to Cameron Mathison with her last partner being Geraldo Rivera in season 22. She and fellow DWTS pro Alec Mazo wed in 2007 in San Francisco. The two welcomed their first child, Michael, in 2014, and their daughter, Leia, in 2017.

Alec Mazo

Alec Mazo was one-half of the first-ever winning pair on DWTS when he took home the mirrorball with partner Kelly Monaco. After a brief break, the dancer came back on seasons 4 and 5 and then again on seasons 7 and 9. He married Śliwińska in 2007, and the two have two children together.

Per his LinkedIn, Mazo got his MBA from Stanford Business School in 2012 and is now a General Partner at DGA Capital.

Cheryl Burke

Cheryl Burke started off her time on DWTS with a bang, taking home the Mirrorball trophy with partner Drew Lachey in season 2. She kept up the momentum and won again the following season alongside Emmitt Smith. Burke has appeared on more than 20 seasons since, with her most recent appearance in season 31. In 2022, she announced her official departure from the franchise after 26 seasons — a decision she called “very emotional.”

In 2023, Burke debuted her third podcast, this time called Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans where she dishes on the dance competition show alongside former cast members.

Burke married Matthew Lawrence in 2019, but in 2022 the pair went their separate ways.

Peta Murgatroyd

Peta Murgatroyd’s time on DWTS dates back to season 12 when she started as a troupe dancer. She was quickly promoted to a pro dancer the following season and in season 14 she won it all alongside partner Donald Driver. She’s won the Mirrorball one more time since and most recently danced on season 32.

In addition to her two Mirrorball trophies, Murgatroyd took home another win from the show: She met her future husband, fellow dancer Maksim Chmerkovskiy. The pair got engaged in 2015 and wed in 2017, and have since had three sons, Shai, Rio and Milan.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy

Maksim Chmerkovskiy first joined the Dancing with the Stars family back in 2006 during season 2. He was a mainstay for years to come, appearing on nearly 20 seasons before giving his last performance during season 25. Over the course of his time on the show, he found himself in the middle of some drama off the dance floor.

Though he was engaged for some time to fellow DWTS pro Karina Smirnoff before tension caused them to call the wedding off, he later fell for dancer Peta Muragtroyd and their relationship has lasted. In 2015, the pair was engaged and welcomed their first child together in 2017. The two got married in 2017 and are now the parents of three!

Earlier this year, he appeared as a judge alongside fellow DWTS alum Allison Holker Boss as a judge on season 18 of So You Think You Can Dance. He also appeared on season two of The Traitors, though spoiler alert, he was banished in episode 3.

Val Chmerkovskiy

Dancing runs in the family for the Chmerkovskiys: Maksim’s little brother, Val is also a longtime pro on the show. Though he first appeared on the show in season 2, it wasn’t until season 13 that Val joined as an official pro. He has appeared on nearly every season since, taking home the Mirrorball three times including season 32 alongside Xochitl Gomez. In season 33, he is set to dance with The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Phaedra Parks

Like his big brother, Val also met his future wife on the show and in 2018 he and Jenna Johnson were engaged. The pair wed in 2019 and welcomed their first child together, a baby boy named Rome, in 2023.

In 2023, Dovolani returned to DWTS to pay tribute to former judge head judge Len Goodman following his death. The following year it was announced that Dovolani would be appearing alongside Jennifer Lopez in the upcoming screen adaptation of Kiss of the Spider Woman.

Anna Trebunskaya was a DWTS pro for 11 seasons starting back in season 2. And while she started off strong, finishing runner-up during her first season with partner Jerry Rice, she did not bring home the Mirrorball trophy during her tenure.

Now, Trebunskaya owns You Can Dance Studio in Hermosa Beach, California with her mother, Irina and is the proud mom to her two kids whom she shares with Nevin Millan.

She returned to the DWTS ballroom with some of her former castmates in 2023 to celebrate the legacy of Len Goodman following his death in April of that year.

Following her time on DWTS, Johnson-Herjavec created her own workout series — a 5678 Fitness DVD and companion diet book and also opened a fitness studio in the Richard Simmons’ Slimmons Studio space. In 2024, she starred alongside Denise Richards,  Melyssa Ford and NeNe Leakes on Lifetime’s Hunting Housewives.

Martinez. Since leaving the show after season 22, she has continued to perform and teach dance and in 2022 welcomed her first child, son Theo.

He announced in 2016 that he would step away from the series, but returned as a judge in 2021.

Daniella Karagach

Though Daniella Karagach technically joined the DWTS cast during season 28 alongside her husband Pasha Pashkov as a member of the troupe, it wasn’t until the following year that she competed with her first partner, Nelly.
