Didn't they mention it in the rehearsal segment? Maybe it was mentioned on ET.
Haven't you gals been reading the other posts by us the last
several weeks? Many of us noted how
uncomfortable Cheryl was with Chad. If fact, their body language was anything but cuddly, which is usually the case when two people are hot & heavy. You can't keep them apart from each other. THAT shows in body language, too. People give off "tells." Cheryl was clearly UNcomfortable with Chad.
Once, Cheryl had some cone/fin thingie jutting out on one of her "girls" to keep Chad from dancing too close to her. Then two weeks ago, they even got a critique from the judges that they were dancing too far away from each other. it showed in her dancing how uncomfortable she's been with him.
It seems Cheryl's been keeping Chad away from her, while Chad just being a real player. I think he though he could get some action off the side from her. He even had his hand on her butt once. I think he's been trying to touch her and paw at her through the first several weeks of rehearsals. To me, when someone is employed on a job and they are being pawed at and moves constantly made on them, that's sexual harrassment.
When Chad wasn't pawing her, he was trying to buy her with gifts -- which as a pro ball player, he can well afford.
She never looked comfortable with him. All this hype about them being together is simply hype, to get their votes up. Chad knows how to play the public for publicity. That's what he is: a player all around!
DWTS is not stupid. If Chad has been pawing at and Cheryl all this time, they aren't going to let that out.
I think, only this past week Chad has realized he actually has a competitive chance and he wised up, or someone said something to him. For the first week Cheryl finally looks comfortable & relaxed again. She's her old self again. It shows in her dancing.
