Stephen Nediroscik is taking up a new role of being the guardian of his DWTS partner, Rylee Arnold. After winning the Olympic bronze medal in Paris, Nedoroscik took up the challenge of trying his luck in dancing. Much to his good luck, he found a good teacher in Arnold. Having helped him significantly in the training sessions, Arnold soon turned Nedoroscik into a pro dancer. 

The praises started to come in soon after their first performance together back on September 17. Opening the night with Queen’s ‘Don’t Stop Me Now’ the gymnasts’ fans were shocked to find out his dancing prowess. They then went on to gift the audiences some of the memorable DWTS performances, even embracing his ‘Clark Kent’ comparisons at one point. Now, with each passing day, the friendship between Arnold and Nedoroscik started to bloom. 

Now it has reached a point where Rylee Arnold seeks validation about her romantic interest from Stephen Nedoroscik. Recently, Nedoroscik and Arnold went on a double date with their respective partners, Tess McCracken and Walker Lyons. However, turning up at the venue, Arnold jokingly asked Nedoroscik to ‘approve’ of Lyons. She said, “I need Stephen’s stamp of approval, don’t I?” Well, Nedoroscik is ready with his decision.

Playing the perfect brother, Nedoroscik seems to be right in the mood for ‘approving’ Arnold’s romantic decision. After delivering back-to-back dance performances, ‘ExtraTV’ caught up with Nedoroscik and Arnold.

As Arnold went on to give a detailed description of how incredible it felt being with Lyons, Nedoroscik quickly chimed in with his two cents. 

Rylee felt the love and support from fans and was grateful for how well Walker treated her, sharing that their connection was evident to everyone. She said, “It is so nice to feel everyone’s support behind me, and I think they can see how much Walker and I really do like each other. Yes, I think they just see how awesome our connection is together and how well he treats me. It’s just so nice to hear that support from everybody.”

Well, now that Arnold has the stamp of approval, she can happily carry on with her romantic endeavors. Well, Stephen Nedoroscik is currently enjoying all the glitz and glamor as an established dancer. But his tryst with dancing in his early years was far from what it is today.

Making an appearance recently on the Mythical Kitchen show with Josh Scherer, the host decided to look back at the Olympian’s journey. Scherer, at one point, mentioned that people perceived Nedoroscik as a ‘confident and a good dancer.’ Replying to the question, ‘The Pommel Horse Guy’ opened up about his dancing insecurities. He said, “Well, those people would be very wrong. I’m a very cowardly and scared dancer…Getting on Dancing with the Stars, like, I never would’ve thought… Like an insecurity of mine is dancing. When I’m at the club, I’m usually in the corner.”

Nedoroscik further expressed his amazement at how he could have never imagined himself standing on this pedestal. The Olympic champion said, “You know, I never would have imagined I’d be watched by millions of people dancing. Seriously, not in a million years would I have thought I found myself in these situations. But the thing is, as long as you go a hundred percent, like you won’t ever really look stupid.” Thus, with his life-changing for the good, it now remains to be seen how can Stephen Nedoriscik handle the fame game while elevating his career further.
