Maks & Val Chmerkovskiy: Dancing, Dad Life, & Drinking Wine (... all at once)

Brothers, dancers, and dads Val and Maks Chmerkovskiy join Kaitlyn in today’s episode to talk about… well… being brothers, dancers, and dads! These two grew up sharing bunk beds until their 20s, experiencing life vicariously through each other, and now are raising kids (two of which are approximately the same age) which begs some important questions: Was this planned, and is dancing in the blood? They explain how their relationships with dance have evolved over the years and what they predict for their kids’ future with the sport. Now, these two brothers are onto yet another adventure together as they star in their show SAVOR After Hours, a one-of-kind theatrical cabaret-style and dance-infused wine-tasting show in Napa Valley! And of course, they’re each sharing a confession, with Maks opening up about his history as the bad boy of Dancing with the Stars and Val sharing a shameful parenting experience.
