Chrishell Stause’s relationship with DWTS costar Keo Motsepe has ‘blossomed pretty quickly’

Chrishell Stause hasn’t had the best of luck with her love life playing out in the public eye over the past year.

But the Selling Sunset star has started the new year with a new chapter of her life, amid her recent whirlwind romance.

Her recent relationship with Dancing with the Stars costar Keo Motsepe has ‘blossomed pretty quickly,’ after making their romance Instagram official last month and spending Christmas together with her family. 

The 39-year-old ‘clearly has strong feelings’ for Motsepe, 31, as a source told Us Weekly: ‘Their relationship has grown a lot further than where it was a few months ago… Keo worships the ground she walks on — he is so wrapped around her finger!’

It comes after he revealed earlier this month that his mother died: ‘Keo’s hanging in there. He’s getting a lot of support from friends, and of course, Chrishell. They’re pretty much inseparable and spend a lot of time together.’

Stause has reportedly been his ‘rock,’ after she lost both of her own parents to the same kind of lung cancer since 2019.

The insider added: ‘She’s always leaned on him for support with her divorce and now he’s leaning on her for support. 

‘She was able to relate to his recent loss because she lost both of her parents to cancer, so she completely sympathizes with what Keo’s going through. She’s totally there for him 100 percent… They really do have a great relationship.’

It comes as her divorce with Justin Hartley, 43, was finalized, according to Us Weekly.

Hartley surprised Stause in November of 2019, when he ‘blindsided’ her after filing for divorce, which played out on season three of her Netflix reality series Selling Sunset. 

He recently made his relationship with Moroccan actress Sofia Pernas, 31, Instagram official, after they were first romantically linked back in May. 

Stause previously confirmed her relationship with Motsepe last month, posting a photo to her Instagram Story of the South African dancer kissing her on the cheek.

The couple met on season 29 of DWTS, during which rumors sparked of an affair with her partner Gleb Savchenko, 37, who’s since been undergoing a public divorce of his own with wife of 14 years Elena Samodanova, 36, who accused him of ‘ongoing infidelity.’

Both Stause and Savchenko have denied rumors of their affair, but they vacationed together last month in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico with Motsepe and Savchenko’s girlfriend Cassie Scerbo, 30.

She had to shoot down further rumors of the nature of their relationship, taking to Instagram with a photo of her and her new beau by the pool, writing: ‘If you love love, feel free to leave your beautiful positivity below. 

‘If you are insane & tied up in ridiculous conspiracy theories that were never, and have never had any truth to them, by all means let your crazy flag fly! Ha! Entertaining either way XO’
