In an exclusive interview with US Weekly, Chmerkovskiy shared, “I knew Jenna was the one when I saw how close she is with her family and how she interacts with her nieces and nephews. Family is everything to me and I can’t wait for us to build one together.”

In September 2020, the couple told US Weekly about their plans to have kids: “I want babies. Val wants babies very badly. We definitely have spoken about it. That’s our future. That’s what we want when that’s gonna happen. There’s that saying that there’s never the right time, but I think we just want to figure things out and then let it happen when it’s meant to happen.”
