Kym Johnson shares insights into her life with Shark Tank star Robert Herjavec and their children

In her interview with People published on March 7, 2024, Kym Johnson reflected on her family life, expressing gratitude for her time on Dancing with the Stars, where she met her husband, Robert Herjavec.

While she would like to get back on the stage she said that nothing felt better for her than actually being home.

"We had our twins later in life. I got married later in life. And it just made me realize you really do have to trust the timing of your life. I was thinking, 'Gosh, am I ever going to find the one?' And I'm glad I just didn't settle just for the sake of it," she added.

Meeting her husband, whom she describes as incredible, supportive, and her best friend, and later welcoming their children, felt “absolutely amazing” to her. Kym added that she loves doing things with her husband, and together they’ve created a balanced approach to caring for their kids.

"We try and now do Daddy days and Mommy days, so we're not always just having the two of them do exactly the same thing. So Robert will take Haven out like a daddy/daughter day or take Hudson out, and me as well."

Shark Tank season 16 episodes are currently airing on ABC.
