AceShowbiz - "Dancing With the Stars" pro Rylee Arnold, 19, has confirmed her relationship with USC football tight end Walker Lyons. On October 27, Arnold took to Instagram to share a series of cozy photos showing the couple cuddling and enjoying a football game together. Arnold coyly captioned the post, "Is this a hard launch??"

Lyons also shared the post on his Instagram Stories, further confirming their relationship. The NFL player, who shares Arnold's faith, is equally adored by her "Dancing With the Stars" family. Ballroom pro Alan Bersten commented, "It's not a soft launch!!! That's for sure," while Arnold's older sister, Lindsay, exclaimed, "I CANNOT GET OVER YOU TWO."

Arnold had previously teased her new romance on TikTok in early October, revealing that she had gone on several dates with a mystery man. Fans had speculated about her potential relationships with her past DWTS partners, but both Harry Jowsey and Stephen Nedoroscik denied any involvement.

The public's curiosity intensified when Arnold posted a video describing the date she had gone on with a new man who had "all the amazing qualities." The clues led many fans to believe that it was Lyons, who is not only a top USC athlete but also shares Arnold's devout Mormon faith.

The speculation surrounding the couple has gained momentum as fans have noticed subtle hints on social media, such as Lyons' accidental appearances in Rylee's TikToks and a bracelet that matched Rylee's in one of Lyons' videos. Despite the scrutiny, Arnold has remained cautious about sharing too much information, likely to avoid the intense rumors that surrounded her previous speculations with Stephen Nedoroscik.

Regardless of the level of privacy the couple chooses to maintain, the "Dancing With the Stars" fandom has expressed their support and excitement for Arnold's newfound happiness. The pro dancer has become a fan favorite since her time on "Dancing with the Stars: Juniors," and her personal life has become an exciting chapter for her fans to follow.
