'DWTS' Season 32: Val Chmerkovskiy's 9-month-old son Rome steals spotlight on Disney100 Night as he makes his show debut
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ahead of the release of 'Dancing With The Stars' Season 32's Disney 100 Night, we saw Disney+ releasing a video where the contestants of the show and their pro partners were featured. Well, the video also showed Valentin Chmerkovskiy's son making his debut in 'DWTS.'
The video starts with Valentin and Jenna Johnson coming out of their house with their 9-month-old Rome. Further in the video we see Valentin, who is in the driver's seat, handling a Mickey Mouse toy to Rome as he cheers and giggles in the backseat.
Rome is then seen playing with the Mickey Mouse toy as the Disney100 Night episode's announcement is done in the car. Even though there were other 'DWTS' Season 32 contestants in the video, Rome seems to have stolen the spotlight with his cuteness as most fans only commented about him.
A fan commented, "Rome got his 'DWTS' debut!! He is just ADORABLE." Another claimed, 'Let's be honest Rome stole this opening." "Rome is the star! Would have been cool to see the other babies to!" commented one.
"Rome was a star," wrote a fan. Another claimed, 'PETITION FOR MORE SCREENTIME FOR ROME." A fan tagged the parents saying, 'Omg seeing @jennajohnson and @valentin son was cute."
A seventh person declared, "Everybody is beautiful but Rome stole the show for me." Another exclaimed, "I think Rome was the best part!!!"
