Robert Irwin's 'DWTS' Win Sends Xochitl Gomez into Overdrive Amid Dating Rumors with Co-Star Witney Carson.
Actress and "Raven's Home" alum Xochitl Gomez couldn't hold back her enthusiasm for Robert Irwin, the winner of Season 32 of "Dancing With the Stars," after his private meetup with co-star Witney Carson sparked dating rumors between the two.
Gomez was overheard exclaiming how incredibly proud she was of Irwin and his pro partner Carson at a recent event. Her video post on Instagram captured her emotional reaction to the pair's big win, captioned "I am so incredibly proud of you two!"
Irwin, 21, and Carson, 32, were announced as the season's champions in a heartwarming moment that saw them hug it out onstage. Gomez brought Irwin a bouquet before his win and even spent time backstage with his family members.
The pair had already generated buzz when they danced together during the show's 20th anniversary celebration earlier this month. Their sizzling performance has fans swooning, but their private meetup has led to whispers about a potential romance.
While reps for Irwin and Gomez have remained tight-lipped on the matter, sources close to the situation claim that Carson wrote to fans in September saying she was "flooding" with applications from admirers hoping to date her.
Carson quipped in response, saying they were busy dancing their lives away so couldn't respond. However, Irwin jokingly told Page Six that he'd keep his admirers waiting until the right moment.
Irwin recently gushed about working with Gomez during an interview with The New York Times, calling their routine "so much fun." Carson echoed her sentiments, saying anything they do is on full display for fans to see.
It remains to be seen if Irwin and Carson will become a more permanent pair in the spotlight.

"The truth is rarely pure and never simple." I think this celebrity romance thing can get messy, like a beautiful butterfly that turns out to be a venomous snake! 
They seem so sweet on screen, but what happens behind the scenes? We'll just have to wait and see... 
those two r defo meant 2 b together!!! 
he's been doing such great work with witney carson, they're like the ultimate dance duo 
! but, on a more serious note, it's kinda weird how fast this whole dating rumor thing has gone from zero to 100 
i mean, we barely even got a chance to process robert's win before xochitl gomez is already shipping him and witney 
... anyway, gotta see how this all plays out 
I'm low-key shipping Robert Irwin and Witney Carson already!!! They're just too cute together 
And can we talk about how Xochitl Gomez is totally shipping her co-star too? 
. The way they work together on screen is seriously on point, and it's lovely to see them being adorable off-screen too 
. But can we talk about Witney Carson for a sec? Girl's been low-key saying there are some random ppl flooding her DMs trying to hit on her 
. Anyway, Robert & Xochitl's chemistry is undeniable, I'm rooting for those two 
It's hard not to ship these two! They're young, fun-loving, and seem to balance each other out perfectly. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this win will bring them even closer together 
i no some ppl might think wits is too old for robie but idc i think they're perfect 4 each othr 
... think it's just a case of co-stars having fun with each other on set, you know? They're both pros at what they do & that chemistry is always gonna translate to the screen 
... don't get me wrong, it's cute and all, but let's not read too much into it just yet 
...
but seriously, xochitl gomez seems like a sweetheart too, she's just so proud of robert & witney 
... like, I'm right there with her, cheering them on! 
And let's be real, Witney's been crushing it in the competition & Robert's got that adorable Aussie charm 
Maybe we'll see them at the next red carpet event together 
. Either way, I'm rooting for these two to make it work in the spotlight 
.
It's all about having fun and being in the moment, you know?
