Kaitlyn's "Off the Vine" guest, DWTS contestant and TV star Chandler Kinney, stopped in her tracks and muttered, "Uhh..."
"I should just ask them," Kaitlyn interjected, "because I'm friends with both of them."

"Yeah!" Chandler agreed.
Kaitlyn shared with Chandler how she had just talked to Sasha, 40, on the phone because they're "good friends" and she thinks he gives great, honest advice.
"I was like, 'Well are you just loving your partner and time with Jenn?' He was like, 'I really am,'" Kaitlyn recalled of her conversation with the pro dancer and choreographer.
"He was really hyping her up, and I was like, 'Is there flirty vibes?' He goes, 'It's dancing, there's always flirty vibes!' And I was like, 'Defensive much?!'"
Kaitlyn also pointed out how Jenn, 26, and Sasha had danced to "Kiss the Girl" from The Little Mermaid on "Disney Night" and co-host Julianne Hough even asked the pair about their connection.

"They're really asking a lot about it," Chandler noted of the Dancing with the Stars family. "And I'm like, 'Okay, give them some space. Let them breathe.'"
"Not me!" Kaitlyn quipped in reply. "I'm not letting them breathe. I'm like, 'Are you dating? Kiss the girl!'"
Kaitlyn added of that sweet "Disney Night" performance, "When he kissed her on the forehead, I was like, 'Lame!'"
The Season 11 The Bachelorette star went on to gush, "I think they would be so cute together! I [also] love Dancing with the Stars romance."
Jenn just paid tribute to Sasha with a thoughtful Instagram post on Sunday, November 3.

Alongside a montage of clips from their time together on Dancing with the Stars, Jenn wrote, "From our first rehearsal to our last @sashafarber1," and she set her post to "Long Live" by Taylor Swift.
Jenn's beloved brother, James Tran, noticeably wrote in the comments section, "When's the wedding rehearsal?"
Rumors Jenn and Sasha were romantically involved sparked in September when Sasha had referred to his Dancing with the Stars celebrity partner as "babe" on TikTok.
And then after the pair got eliminated on Dancing with the Stars' Halloween episode, Jenn uploaded a flirty TikTok video revealing that she and the pro dancer were about to begin "private rehearsals."
"When one door closes, another door opens," Jenn lip-synced the audio of content creator Keegan Jasper in an October 31 TikTok video.

"We often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the ones that open for us."

Dancing with the Stars pro Ezra Sosa commented, "I ship it... This is so cute."
Dancing with the Stars judge Derek Hough -- who had gushed about Jenn and Sasha's "chemistry" during their DWTS stint -- also hinted love is in the air by writing a heart emoji and the following: "I give this a 100. Happy for you two."
Many fans also shipped Jenn and Sasha as a couple in the comments of Jenn's post.
One person wrote, "BABE IS THIS A SOFT LAUNCH?"
Another TikTok user commented, "Is this the part where you guys fall in love or what?"
When Jenn and Sasha got eliminated on Dancing with the Stars, Jenn alluded to the fact Sasha was going to remain a big part of her life.
"[Sasha and I] have spent the last seven weeks attached at the hip, and I don't even know -- I can't even imagine a life without Sasha at this point!" Jenn gushed of her pro partner.
"And I didn't even know him seven weeks ago!"
Prior to Jenn's blossoming relationship with Sasha, The Bachelorette fans had been shipping Jenn with her Season 21 third-place finisher, Jonathon Johnson, who supported Jenn week after week in the Dancing with the Stars ballroom.

But Jonathon claimed on a recent episode of the "Bachelor Happy Hour: Golden Hour" podcast that he and Jenn are not dating and they just have "a friendly love" for each other.
Jenn joined the Dancing with the Stars cast after she had her heart broken on The Bachelorette's 21st season.
Jenn had accepted a marriage proposal from The Bachelorette winner Devin Strader during her season finale, but they were broken up by the time they filmed the live After the Final Rose special in early September.
Devin had allegedly slowly ghosted Jenn after their engagement, and he ultimately dumped her during a brief phone call in August. Devin proceeded to leak personal text messages with Jenn on Instagram in attempt to share his "truth" and side of the breakup story.
Sasha, for his part, had wed fellow Dancing with the Stars pro Emma Slater in March 2018. They had an on-again, off-again relationship for over a decade until Emma filed for divorce in February 2023.
Sasha and Emma, who finalized their divorce in May 2024, continue to claim they have an amicable relationship and support each other at work.
