New Man for Shan?

The rumor mills are abuzz that Shannon Elizabeth and her Dancing with the Stars professional partner Derek Hough are now a couple. Though they were tight-lipped on Jimmy Kimmel Live immediately following their DWTS elimination, their body language said it all. The stars walked out on the stage holding hands and demonstrated close contact throughout the interview. Verbally, the duo maintained that they were “friends” and had enjoyed each other’s company during their time in the competition. But when the host asked about any upcoming vacations, Hough responded by saying “There’s a lot of places we want to go.” We know they’ve already been to Malibu, where they were caught in a hot beach make-out session in mid-April.
