“Dancing with the Stars” professional dancer Britt Stewart has three seasons partnering with a celebrity under her belt, although she has not yet made it to the finale or won a mirror-ball trophy. However, her season 31 experience was still a win, in that she may have found her forever real-life partner thanks to the competition.
Stewart partnered with “CODA” actor Daniel Durant for season 31 of DWTS, and their chemistry on the dance floor was immediately visible to everybody else watching. Stewart and Durant have since gone public with a romantic relationship, and she now says she has high hopes for the future of their off-screen partnership.

Britt Stewart & Daniel Durant Became Best Friends While Competing
On August 7, the “Dancing with the Stars” pro opened up to Us Weekly about her real-life connection with Durant. Stewart admitted she had high expectations early on that they could last a long time in season 31.
Despite being eliminated prior to the finale, she noted, “Both Daniel and I really feel like we’re satisfied with our season.” They did not bring home the champion’s trophy, but, “We believe that everything happens for a reason. So our journey on ‘Dancing with the Stars’ ended when it was meant to be,” she added.
The dancer explained she and Durant were “best friends throughout the entire season.” While they knew they shared an intense chemistry, they initially thought it would simply be an asset to get them to the finale. After their elimination, with the realization they wouldn’t be spending so much time together any longer, they acknowledged, “Ok, this is a little bit more than friendship.”
