People Magazine has recently announced that country stars/Dancing with the Stars couple Julianne Hough and Chuck Wicks have called it quits. The couple, who were introduced by Brad Paisley while opening for him on tour, began dating in the summer of 2008. In several different interviews, both Chuck and Julianne admitted to having big plans of a future together. Even within months of dating, they spoke of their plans to get married. The two even share custody of their dog (their “baby”) Lexi.
While neither artist has yet to confirm the rumors, a “source” told People Magazine that “This was mutual. They needed some time apart.” Both stars are scheduled to attend the Country Music Awards tomorrow. Chuck Wicks will be covering the live red carpet for Entertainment Tonight and Julianne Hough is presenting an award.
Julianne, who turned 21 this past summer, is already familiar with long-term relationships turning sour. After the fourth season on Dancing with the Stars (Julianne’s first time on the show), Julianne postponed and eventually called off her wedding engagement to former dancer Zach Wilson. Julianne was only nineteen at the time.
Tomorrow’s award show will give the couple the opportunity to either confirm or deny the rumors. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.
