Soon then the duo got engaged in June 2018 in Venice, Italy, after Val got down on one knee. And as for Val’s decision to propose to Jenna in the Italian city, Val thought it was the most romantic place in the world while he visited there for the first time at the age of 17. So, he promised himself that he would propose to the woman he loves and wants to spend the rest of his life within his next visit to Venice and he kept his word.
The DWTS pro duo then tied the knot in a glamorous wedding at the Terranea Resort in Rancho Palo Verdes California on 13 April 2019. The wedding was an epic DWTS reunion and was attended by 200 of the bride and groom’s friends and family.
Furthermore, their lavish wedding included a Vera Wang dress for the bride, a five-tiered wedding cake, and later Jenna changed into a timeless white dress designed by Kleinfeld for the reception and shared surprisingly not choreographed and more of a spontaneous slow first dance to the reception playlist.
As the duo returned for DWTS ballroom for season 29, they had to take safety measures and drastic precautions and were not allowed to live together because of the strict COVID-19 protocols on the show. And Jenna furthermore added that it’s not fun to be separated from her husband.
In September 2020, after getting married for nearly 2 years the pair expressed a wish to expand their family and have a baby.
