Chrishell Stause is a single lady after splitting with her boyfriend, Dancing With the Stars pro Keo Motsepe, around the same time her divorce from husband Justin Hartley was finalized Monday, TMZ reported Friday. The Selling Sunset star, who competed on the most recent season of the ABC dance competition alongside partner Gleb Savchenko, reportedly came to a mutual decision with the pro to end their relationship after three months together.
Stause and Motsepe don't have any bad blood, TMZ's source added, but their romance had run its course after they first connected while filming their season in the late fall. The couple initially went public with their romance in December, sharing a cuddly picture on Instagram. At the time, a source close to the pair told Entertainment Tonight, "Chrishell and Keo are both awesome and felt like, 'I'm single, you're single. Let's try this.'"

News of the couple's split comes nearly two weeks after Stause wished the dancer a happy Valentine's Day with a sweet post on Instagram. "My Valentine," she wrote with a heart-eyed emoji alongside a photo of the two looking happy together. "Happy Valentine's Day!" The two previously celebrated Christmas together with Stause's family and even went on vacation to Mexico with the Netflix star's dance partner, Gleb Savchenko, and his girlfriend, Cassie Scerbo.
Stause's divorce from her This Is Us star husband Hartley was signed off on by a judge on Feb. 8 after the two married in October 2017 and announced in 2019 they had decided to split. A source who spoke with PEOPLE shortly after their split explained that the two had been "having trouble for a while," adding that the two were "somewhat fundamentally incompatible" in many ways, including plans for the future.
The source added that while Hartley was experiencing a "new level of fame" after This Is Us became a hit, Stause was ready to begin a family and step back from the limelight. "Chrishell is really ready to just settle down and be a wife and stay-at-home mom and was hoping to start a family relatively soon," they said at the time. "Justin wants that but also doesn't think it has to happen in the near future and is at a point in his career where he wants to really be able to explore all the options that are coming his way."
