Siwa confirmed her break-up with Prew in an interview with Hilton. The DWTS competitor said that there is no bad blood between them despite the separation and that she still has a clear mind towards her ex.

She still considers Prew her best friend, but she felt the relationship happened with the right person at the wrong time. While speaking on the podcast, she highlighted the beautiful moments they shared as a couple.

They are in their teenage years, so they still have a long time maintaining their friendship even though their romantic relationship has ended. Siwa admitted that she feels lucky to have Prew as a friend still.

Siwa Broke A Record On 'DWTS'

In the history of "Dancing With The Stars," there has never been a same-sex pair in the competitions. Every male contestant always has a female partner and vice versa. Siwa is the first competitor to break that record.

She has a female partner, Jenna Chmerkovskiy, in DWTS season 30. Jenna is a Latin-American choreographer and ballroom dancer who was born in the early 90s.

On one episode of the "Scrubbing In With Becca Tiley & Tanya Rad" podcast, Jenna explained that she and her partner were the first same-sex pair to contest on the show. It is already a practice in the UK, but it is new in the United States.
