When Stephen Nedoroscik opened up about his first impression of Rylee Arnold’s boyfriend
Rylee Arnold and Walker Lyons went public with their relationship in October 2024. Soon after, Stephen Nedoroscik shared his honest opinion about his first impression of Arnold's boyfriend.
Talking to Access Hollywood, he revealed that he first met Lyons in the middle of a dance practice session, and was immediately impressed with the latter’s polite behaviour.
“(I) recently had the chance to meet Riley's new boyfriend. We were in a little bit of a dance he walked in and I was like ‘oh shoot this is weird, I'm dancing’. But he seemed like such a nice guy. Definitely, definitely a sweet dude. (He) Held the door for me, I could tell he's polite from the start, so that's always a great sign.”
Adding on to this, Arnold said that she was always confident that Nedoroscik and Lyons would get along, saying,
“I got the stamp of approval on that one. I knew that Stephen was going to like him and I knew that Walker was going to love Stephen. Because they're just, they're both just happy and nice guys.”
On season 33 of Dancing With The Stars, Stephen Nedoroscik and Rylee Arnold's opening performance was slightly disappointing, as the duo scored just 21 out of 30. However, they continued to improve throughout the season, and their last performance on the show saw them score a perfect 30.
