Rep: Maksim Chmerkovskiy Is ‘Just Friends’ With Kate Upton

Despite reports of a new romance between Maksim Chmerkovskiy and two-time Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue cover girl Kate Upton, a rep for the former “Dancing with the Stars” pro tells Access Hollywood otherwise.

On Wednesday, Maks’ rep told Access that he and the bombshell are “just friends.”

Reports swirled after the pair were recently spotted dining together in New York City.
