Former “Dancing With the Stars” pro Lacey Schwimmer is engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Frankie Moreno.
“13 years in the making…… [cheers] to being Mr & Mrs,” Schwimmer, 36, captioned an Instagram post on March 26. The ballroom pro shared a close-up view of her round center stone diamond as well as a picture of her and Moreno clinking champagne flutes.
A few days later, the “So You Think You Can Dance” alum shared a couple more photos of her stunning engagement ring. “Entering my wifey era,” she captioned that post.
Schwimmer was on “Dancing With the Stars” for six seasons between 2008 and 2011. Though she never won a coveted Mirrorball Trophy, she made it to the finals in season 7 with Lance Bass and again on season 11 with Kyle Massey.

Lacey Schwimmer & Frankie Moreno Have Been Together for More Than 10 Years
On an October 2024 episode of the “Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans,” podcast, Schwimmer credited her experience on DWTS — and the time thereafter — with helping her find Moreno.
“When the show ended for me… I did go into a depression,” she told podcast host Cheryl Burke. “I went through this phase of not knowing what I wanted to do with my life because I couldn’t dance anymore,” she continued, adding, “I went into, like, this broke, depressed, dark life.”
While she anxiously awaited the next move in her career, she ended up getting a call offering her a gig in Las Vegas. She said she accepted the offer because she really needed the money — but there was something else in store for her that she didn’t expect.
“It turned out to be a really great thing, I met the love of my life doing this show,” she said.
