The Chmerkovskiys Let Fans Into Their Personal Lives
Although neither Maks nor Peta are competing on Dancing With The Stars this year, fans still want to keep up with them. The couple launched The Maks and Peta Show so they can share their lives with followers.
The series is still new, so it’s not entirely certain what the Chmerkovskiys will feature on the show. Fans would love to see Maks spend time with his grandmother, but the subject may be too sensitive to film.
