Ilona recently shared with Access Hollywood that her romantic life could be 'better' if she had time. She noted, "Here’s the thing. All I do is dance, I eat, I go home and sleep, then I go home and dance again. I'm driving home on a Friday night, everyone's out having fun, not me. I’m going through the jazz steps in my head. It could be better."
