Fans love the dance partners' 'magic' chemistry when they get together.
Professional rugby player Ilona Maher, who ended the latest Dancing with the Stars season in second place with her partner Alan Bersten, reunited with the professional dancer for a special reason.
Maher and Bersten gifted fans with a fun little holiday dance set to Ariana Grande's version of "Last Christmas" that charmed fans.
The 28-year-old shared the clip on TikTok on Dec. 23, with the duo in a dance practice room in casual clothes as they performed the short routine.
Fans were immediately obsessed with the two's dance, with enthusiastic responses like, "I always get so excited when I see these two together 😁," and, "Yesssss! We were on the good list for this! 🤍."
Many people praised their great energy together, such as one fan who declared, "THE ABSOLUTE JOY - For all of us, when you two are together. It’s MAGIC!"
"Alan's smile at the end gave me a rush of dopamine," said someone else, as another fan chimed in, "The happiness this TikTok made me feel 🥲."
A different supportive comment read, "I’m in my Ilona and Alan era and I never want to leave."
The Dancing with the Stars cast is starting the 2025 tour in January, and luckily for fans of the Bersten and Maher pair, the Olympic rugby player is set to be a special guest on the tour, while fellow Olympian Stephen Nedoroscik will co-host the event with Emma Slater.
According to the official site, it appears that Maher will only be performing at the final shows in Hollywood on April 5 and 6. Other special guests include Chandler Kinney, Joey Graziadei and Jenna Johnson.
