What happened between Chandler Kinney and Brandon Armstrong? 'DWTS' stars rumored to have gotten into heated argument
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Chandler Kinney was seen leaving practices with her 'Dancing with the Stars' partner, Brandon Armstrong, in an apparent disagreement. In the parking lot of their Los Angeles rehearsal facility, the 'Zombies 2' actress looked to be having a furious discussion with professional dancer Brandon.
The dance partners were talking with their arms up while wearing expressive looks on their faces. Brandon seemed to be snapping in another image at one point, holding up the number "4" with his fingers.
After rehearsal, Chandler was also spotted listening to her partner's ideas while extending her fingers. Chandler donned a black tank top and gray biker shorts, while Brandon wore a black T-shirt and joggers.
Both were dressed for action. Chandler seemed to have finished a lengthy day of practice because she also had a big bag slung over her shoulder.
