That’s the million dollar question," he said with a grin after Monday night's show. "It’s already decided. I’m not telling. I’ll tell you next week. I promise."

"It’s not surreal," says the Olympic gold medal-winning ice dancer. "It feels very real to be honest with you.

I think we both had an amazing time but we’re already looking to next week."

"She’s dope," Maks says of Erin. "She’s awesome. That was the thing, how amazing this season is, things I didn’t think were going to work, work so well. I didn’t think Erin and I would work together with her being in the Sky Box. I was kind of curious to see what it would be like. And the way it is is incredible. She’s so funny, she’s amazing and so supportive. She’s been brilliant for the show. I think it was the best thing. Her presence makes me feel like I’ve done something here that stayed."
