Robert Irwin<\/strong><\/a> and Xochitl Gomez<\/strong><\/a> are keeping fans very entertained \u2014 and not just on the dance floor.<\/p>\n After the Dancing With the Stars<\/em><\/a> season 34 finale (where Robert took home the mirrorball), viewers caught the pair sharing a sweet hug onstage, and now the internet is convinced they\u2019ve cracked exactly what Robert whispered in Xochitl\u2019s ear.<\/p>\n The moment went viral after People posted a clip from the live show. In it, Xochitl \u2014 who won season 32 with Val Chmerkovskiy<\/strong> \u2014 congratulates Robert on his Mirrorball victory before he leans in to say something. Fans swear they heard, \u201cSee you soon,\u201d and immediately flooded the comments with heart-eye emojis and theories.<\/p>\n Xochitl wasn\u2019t just cheering from the audience, either. She spent the entire night supporting the 21-year-old wildlife star, from backstage rehearsals to side-stage prep talks. Hours before showtime, she even surprised him outside his trailer with a big smile and an even bigger bouquet of flowers, according to photos shared by TMZ<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n It\u2019s no secret the pair formed a strong bond this season. Xochitl joined Robert for the show\u2019s 20th anniversary special in November, where they were paired for a relay dance to \u201cDance With Me Tonight.\u201d After their jive, Derek Hough<\/strong> commented on their chemistry, while Robert\u2019s partner Witney Carson<\/strong> gave a knowing look that sent shippers into overdrive.<\/p>\n Witney later revealed her DMs had turned into Robert Irwin matchmaking central. \u201cGirls, I love ya, thank you for the applications through somehow my email and flooding the DMs,\u201d she joked on Instagram. \u201cIf I could line you all up with Robert, I would because you\u2019re all 10\/10 perfect cuties.\u201d<\/p>\n Robert handled the attention like a champ. Earlier this season, he told People<\/em> he\u2019s still waiting for a love story as iconic as the ones in his own family.<\/p>\n \u201cMy mom and dad met when she was this American tourist coming over to Australia, and that\u2019s also how my sister met her husband,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ve been saying, when is that going to happen for me?! I\u2019m still waiting for it. That American tourist is not quite lined up.\u201d<\/p>\n But dating under the spotlight has definitely been an adjustment.<\/p>\n \u201cHoly moly, that\u2019s so challenging to navigate,\u201d he told The New York Times on November 23, especially when \u201canything you do will be on TikTok the next day.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
