The couple had originally shared the video via their Alexander Jean Instagram page on July 11. Fans loved the clip, then, and even more “Dancing with the Stars” fans swooned over it when Ballas shared it on his own page.
“Your baby has great taste! I love this song and you guys! Congratulations,” raved one fan on the Alexander Jean post.
