Sorry guys, super model Kate Upton is officially off the singles market.
The 21-year-old blonde bombshell is officially dating "Dancing With The Stars" dancer Maksim Chmerkovskiy, 33, E! News reports. The new couple was spotted holding hands in New York City's West Village.
"Upton looked cute in workout gear while Chmerkovskiy sported skinny jeans and a pink button-down shirt. Both sported black sunglasses during the daytime outing," according to the entertainment news site. (Check out the photos of the couple, here)
The couple has been rumored to be seeing each other since July, but sources close to Upton and Chmerkovskiy said the two were just "good friends." It wasn't soon before long they turned their friendship into a budding romance.
"The two did not want to be photographed together and did the best they could to avoid the cameras," a source told E! News about their dinner date back in July. "They left the event around midnight and went to Catch sushi bar, that turns into a club. The two partied until the early hours."
Upton has been linked to many Hollywood cuties in the past, including NBA player Blake Griffin and MLB pitcher Justin Verlander. Upton was rumored to have a hot-and-heavy relationship with Verlander, but the two never confirmed their romance.
The blue-eyed beauty was recently named "Model of The Year" during New York Fashion Week early this September. The award ceremony took place at the 10th Annual Style Awards, which fashionista Nicole Richie was the host.
The model also graced the cover of Vanity Fair's anniversary October issue. She accomplished for her age, but still faces stereotypes about being a "dumb" model.
"People deal with models like they are children. They think they can pull one over on you," Upton told Elle magazine. "It's actually funny. I'm always like, I'm about to pull something on you, and you're so focused on thinking I'm dumb you're not even going to know."
