Dancing with the Stars co-hosts Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews then revealed two other couples were in jeopardy of going home: The Bachelor star Chris Soules and pro partner Witney Carson as well as R5 frontman Riker Lynch and partner Allison Holker.
In this eighth week of competition, Chris and Witney were also sent home.
Robert and Kym landed in sixth -- and last -- place on the two-week combined leaderboard with 93 total points.
"I think it's so great to be on this show. This show is such an inspiration. I'm so honored to have been able to do this. It was so much fun, wasn't it Kym?" Robert asked.
"It was the best," Kym replied. "It was the best season. I loved being back and having Robert. He's embraced every single dance he's done and it's what this show is about."
Both Robert and Kym dodged Erin's question about whether or not they're really dating, but Tom wasn't having it. Tom explained he's been friends with Kym for years and then told Robert, "You might not have won a mirrorball trophy, but I'm suspecting you won someone's heart. That's not bad."
Kym smiled and blushed, but she also pretended to be surprised by Tom's announcement.
"Well, Tom, I'm not sure I feel that way about you," Robert joked.
Chris and Witney finished in fifth place on Tuesday night's two-week leaderboard with 95 total points. Once it was revealed the pair had to leave Dancing with the Stars, Chris broke down crying.
"This has been fun," Chris said. "This has been an incredible experience that I'm just thankful to have been a part of. I came here and had done something I've never done in my entire life and made some more progress. And it's just been life changing. I'm forever grateful."
"I love this guy so much," Witney noted. "This has been the most rewarding season. Thank you, Chris, so much for everything."

Riker and Allison survived the cut, but it would've been a shock if they got eliminated considering they racked in high scores from both weeks of performance shows.
Below is the combined two-week leaderboard from both the April 26 and May 3 Dancing with the Stars broadcasts:
- Olympian Nastia Liukin and temporary partner Sasha Farber (filling in for Derek Hough): 117 points
- Actress Rumer Willis and partner Val Chmerkovskiy: 117 points
- Riker and Allison: 115 points
- U.S. Army veteran Noah Galloway and partner Sharna Burgess: 101 points
