Dancing With The Stars Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Meryl Davis Dating: Rumors that Meryl Davis and her alleged boyfriend Maksim Chmerkovskiy on Dancing with the Stars heated up again after Maks and Meryl paired up for the Dancing With the Stars season 19 premiere.

In spite of all the chemistry and DTWS fans' hope, Maks and Meryl went their separate ways after they won the season 18 contest.  But on Monday, Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Meryl Davis were all smiles when they attended the Dancing With The Stars premiere together.

In spite of denials, rumors that Maks Chmerkovskiy is dating his DWTS partner Meryl Davis persist. The pair insisted they were just friends, but Maks and Meryl Davis may have reignited those rumors when they reunited to support Maksim's brother Val, who is competing with Pretty Little Liars actress Janel Parrish.

All during season 18, Meryl Davis and Maksim Chmerkovskiy's chemistry was palpable on the dance floor. The tension hit its boiling point when Maks admitted that he's wanted to "ravage" Meryl and have Russian babies with her.

Maksim joked "I want to ravage her and have ice-skating, big, Russian, mean babies. We're going to call them Boris and Oleg. Their nicknames are going to be Bear. Both. One nickname for both." When he was asked when he was going to propose to Meryl, Chmerkovskiy answered, "Probably tomorrow." 

Lately Maksim has also been rumored to be dating American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez until those rumors were replaced by reports that Chmerkovskiy is dating ex-girlfriend and current costar, Karina Smirnoff, again.

A source told Life & Style that "[Maks and his old girlfriend, Karina Smirnoff,] are constantly flirting...Maks is very, very affectionate with her. He is always trying to kiss her and cuddle her neck. They haven't hooked up yet, but Maks has made it very clear to her that he wants to."

Karina Smirnoff and Maks Chmerkovskiy broke up in 2009 after dating for a few years. Maksim reportedly proposed to Karina.
