Daniel does not leave a chance to visit Ariana and even was on the sets of 'Dancing With the Stars' Season 32. Ariana stated that he even sacrifices his sleep and find time to meet her. It's surely a different zone for Ariana as she is pampered by Daniel. She told Us Weekly, "He'll clean up things that are left out and [does] little things you don’t really think about." "When I come home from the show and everything’s clean and there’s food in the fridge that he made, it’s like, 'Wow, that’s so nice,'" she added. However Ariana said, she has said she hasn't changed her mind about not wanting to ever get married.
