Here’s something you likely didn’t know about Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Peta Murgatroyd – they got married days before everyone thought they did!
The longtime couple, most known for their work on Dancing With the Stars, opened up about their secret wedding in Instagram posts on their anniversary.
“Before we did it in front of 300🤵ðŸ»ðŸ‘°ðŸ¼,” Maks wrote. “This was one of the most exciting days of my life! Everything felt very festive, I couldn’t take my eyes off my future wife the whole ride to the City Hall and it was is if New York City herself was marrying us.”
“I can’t believe it’s been a year. I still can’t believe you chose me. I can’t believe I get to live this dream with you by my side for the rest of my life and I promise to earn every second of your love,” he added. “I love you @petamurgatroyd â¤ï¸ Happy anniversary baby.”
Peta added, “Today I married the man I fell in love with so many years ago. I knew he was the one. There was something so electric between us that people will still tell me about to this day. I love you @maksimc, this has been an incredible, outrageous year for us! I pray we are this happy for the rest of our lives. You’re everything I knew you were.”

The Dancing With The Stars pros and longtime couple recently sat down with ET about keeping their romance alive by throwing in surprises now and then.
“If I can figure out how to cook something better and surprise her with a meal, that’s some points,” Maks shared. “The problem with time [is] you get to know each other so well, there’s no more room for surprises, [but] you look back and say, ‘This has been the best decision I’ve ever made in my life’, because of these days when there’s no more room for surprises, and it’s still the only person you want to be with.”
He adds, “I’m excited that we get to share the same life. I think that’s another key to our success as a couple — this is my partner, you know what I mean?”
“It’s easy for us to relate to one another.”
Maksim Chmerkovskiy shared the cutest video of him and his son Shai.

Val Chmerkovskiy‘s upcoming memoir, “I’ll Never Change My Name”, will be out in just a few more months — and his brother Maksim, has a big part in it.
Speaking with People, the DWTS pro dished about how Maks not only wrote the forward, but the book is almost Maks’ memoir, too.
“While reading this book you’ll quickly realize that my memoir is more like our memoir because [Maks] plays such a prominent role in my life,” Val shared. “I love him dearly, and only he and I truly understand and value our bond.”
He continues, “We’ve shared so many life-changing experiences together and I owe a lot of my life to him. We had bunk beds most of our lives and shared everything from conversations to the adult magazines we hid underneath those bunk beds.”
“I was very lucky to have an older brother. For most of my life, he bulldozed through heartaches and disappointments while I walked behind him enjoying the wisdom of hindsight.”
Val‘s book will be out in March 2018.
It’s official — The Chmerkovskiy‘s are headed out on tour!
Brothers Maks and Val Chmerkovskiy are bringing Peta and even baby Shai along with them on the newly rebranded MVP Tour, starting in March 2018.
“We’re definitely going to have a lot of wow moments,” Val teased about the tour with ET. “I think ‘confidential’ is more from the side of the honesty you’re going to get on this tour.”
He adds, “This show is going to be honest about how we feel about love, how we feel about friendships, how we feel about family, and that’s what’s confidential. You’re going to get to see us in a way that you haven’t seen us before.”
Peta also opened up about bringing along almost one-year-old son, Shai, with them, “Talk to me the first weekend and we’ll see how we go (laughs). We’re going to definitely have to have a really good setup for him [on the bus].”
