There’s chemistry and then there’s that magical chemistry that is so undeniable, it can’t help but blossom into something bigger. From the beginning and throughout the season, Durant and Stewart received constant comments from the panel about their incredible partnership and chemistry.
They developed a special bond during their time together in the fall, with Stewart learning American Sign Language to better communicate with her deaf partner, and learning to adapt her teaching technique to accommodate him.
A fan-favorite pairing from the beginning, their biggest viral moment came when they decided to share Daniel’s experience as a deaf dancer with the audience, stripping away the music for several measures mid-dance.
