Unveiling the Unbreakable Bond of Harry Jowsey and Rylee Arnold on ‘Dancing With the Stars’

The chemistry between Too Hot to Handle star Harry Jowsey and his Dancing With the Stars partner, Rylee Arnold, has led to dating rumors during their time on the reality competition series. Rylee's sister, Lindsay Arnold, who is also a DWTS professional but took a break in 2021, noted the cute connection between Rylee and Jowsey before season 32 debuted in September 2023.

"They look amazing," Lindsay commented on the duo's promotional photos when she appeared on the "Weekly Trash" podcast in September. However, she playfully cautioned Jowsey, who is eight years older than Rylee, saying, "No kissing my sister."

DWTS judge Derek Hough, on the other hand, appeared to approve of the pair during an episode of the show in October 2023. "You two are adorable together," he remarked after their foxtrot performance. "The chemistry is fantastic."

Singing Each Other’s Praises

Rylee is consistently cheerful and uplifts me when I'm feeling down or overthinking things. She knows how to have a conversation with me and help me get through any challenges I may be facing," Jowsey exclusively told We in October 2023. "Having someone like her in your life is essential. She exceeds all expectations." Rylee shared the same thoughts, stating that she had no expectations for Jowsey, but was pleasantly surprised when they first met.

“He walks in the door [and] he’s the sweetest person you’ll ever meet,” she said. “So sweet, so fun to be around.”

‘Focused on Rylee’

Jowsey exclusively told Us in October 2023 that it’s “to be decided” whether he’s single. “Honestly, I’m just focused on Rylee right now,” he said.

Cool and Coy

Amidst ongoing dating speculation, Jowsey revealed in an interview with Entertainment Tonight in October that he prefers to "maintain an air of mystery" when it comes to his relationship with Rylee. He emphasized that they simply enjoy each other's company and have a strong bond, making their time together truly wonderful.

Rylee agreed, telling the outlet: “We just love everybody that’s supporting us and we’re having so much fun together.”

Defending His Partner

Jowsey expressed his concern for the pressure being placed on Rylee during her first season of DWTS, stating that whatever is happening behind the scenes should remain private. He further commented on a TikTok video that went viral, showing him and Rylee holding hands while walking through a crowded area of the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles.

"That video may appear quite intense, but we were actually put in a difficult situation. Our intention was to leave that concert," Jowsey clarified. "Our main focus was on dancing and simply enjoying each other's company. If anything unforeseen occurred, so be it."

When questioned about whether the mentioned event was a romantic date or a group gathering, Jowsey and Rylee exchanged glances and chuckled. "Oh no, just a casual group outing," Rylee replied, accompanied by a playful giggle.

"She's expecting," he joked, gently touching Rylee's stomach. Rylee, in response, exclaimed, "Harry!" and burst into laughter, while covering her face with her hands.

“I’m joking,” Jowsey emphasized before noting that he “wouldn’t want to be [partnered] with anyone else.”
