"Dancing With The Stars" Couple Welcomes Twins

Joining the cast of the the 20th season of Dancing with the Stars is the best thing to happen to Shark Tank star Robert Herjavec.

The businessman was paired with professional dancer Kym Johnson, and they instantly bonded over their love of dancing, and their previous heartbreaks.

Kym, 41, was previously engaged to Australian cricket player Shane Watson, but never made it down the aisle.

As for Robert, 56, he was previously married to Diane Plese, an optometrist, for 24 years before calling it quits.

"Human relationships are so difficult ... I wish nothing but love and peace for our family as we move forward from this," Robert said in a statement to TMZ after his divorce was finalized.

The multi-millionaire started dating another woman, Danielle Vasinova, but that relationship ended very quickly after she decided to sue him over claims of sexual battery and domestic violence.

"Mr. Herjavec is deeply offended by the accusations as they do not reflect his attitude towards women, professionally or privately," read a statement provided to The NY Daily News on behalf of Robert. "Mr. Herjavec’s character has always been one of respect and it is undeniable that his actions have always reflected that."

At one point, things became a little bit too much for Robert. Not only was he alone, but his kids refused to talk to him.

One night, he stood on the balcony of his Toronto hotel room and contemplated suicide.

“I just wanted to end it. It’s been a terribly difficult year,” Robert said referring to his divorce. “We were great parents and a great team, but over time we drifted apart.”

“Everyone has their kryptonite,” he added. “For me, it was my kids. It took me to a place I never thought I would go.”

Thankfully, he came to his senses and decided to seek help by reaching out to his pastor, John McAuley.

He was on the track to get his life back together when he was offered a spot on the reality dance competition.

During the rehearsals that Robert and Kym fell in love with each other.

“When I met Kym, I felt complete. I’m so excited about everything we have to look forward to,” Herjavec told People.

He added, I never thought I’d get married again. I worried I’d become bitter or an old cat guy. But at the end of the day everybody wants to connect to another human being. When I met Kym, it was just effortless."
