Brian Austin Green and his girlfriend, DWTS pro Sharna Burgess, are rumored to be partners for season 30, making them the first real-life couple to be partners on the show. At a press conference on September 8, Green revealed his Burgess, whom he started dating in December 2020 after his divorce from Megan Fox, got him to compete on DWTS.

“When we first started dating, [and] we used to laugh about the fact that it would probably just never happen. It just wasn’t on our radar at all, either one of us,” he said. “But [then] the offer came in for the season. And the more we just kind of talked about it in general, we realized together that this is a really unique opportunity.”

He continued, “I really look at this as a really cool way of understanding who she is professionally and [experiencing] something that she’s been passionate about and done her entire life. It’s really a cool way of getting to know her. It’s an amazing opportunity for that.”

Green also talked about how he wanted to seize the moment to be on DWTS before the show ends.“I don’t know how much longer the show will be on. I don’t know how many more opportunities I will have for something like this,” he said. “It was the perfect storm. Everything just matched up.”

He continued, “Sharna has been extremely kind and helpful and she’s been a huge cheerleader for me. She’s really given me a lot of pointers and helped me understand just the work that is in store for me — what I’m going to have to commit to in doing this well.”
