Bethany Mota and Derek Hough may not be dancing together anymore, but they are keeping in touch.

Derek Hough Is Going To 'Miss' His 'Beautiful' Partner Bethany Mota Post-'DWTS'

Mota and Hough appeared on the 19th season of Dancing With The Stars, where they landed in fourth place. Since their elimination, Mota and Hough have kept in touch, and recently, Mota presented Hough with a special gift.

"[Bethany] got me a new camera to inspire me to get back into photography. Here's a cool new technique I'm trying called double exposure. #zerophotoshop," Hough wrote on Instagram last week, along with a photo of a woman, appearing to be his sister Julianne, with an illumination of a tree in her silhouette.

For the entirety of their time on Dancing With The Stars, Mota and Hough were bombarded with rumor after rumor regarding a possible romance between them, but all the while, they stayed silent, choosing to instead focus on the dance floor. Even after the show wrapped, Mota and Hough remained tight-lipped about their relationship status.

They have, however, spoken about one another on social media quite a few times. After being eliminated, Hough told Mota he would miss her, and called her beautiful. Mota, on the other hand, told her former partner, "I love you."

In his final TV Guide blog, Hough gushed over Mota's last performance. "I'm so proud of her. I'm glad that is the last dance people will see of her on the show because it captured her journey and who she is — this awesome, fearless, revolutionary young woman."
