Dancing with the Stars 5

'Dancing's Sabrina Bryan and Mark Ballas break-up, "just friends now"

By Christopher Rocchio, 05/07/2008

Sabrina Bryan and Mark Ballas turned their ballroom chemistry into a romantic relationship, however it was apparently unable to withstand the Cheetah Girl's time-consuming schedule.

"She is too busy for me," Ballas told Us Weekly in a Wednesday report. "We are just friends now."

Bryan and Ballas met as partners during Dancing with the Stars' fifth season last fall and were quickly considered the frontrunners until they were surprisingly ousted during the sixth week of the competition.

While the two initially played coy about the nature of their relationship, they subsequently went public with the news that they were in fact dating.

But it quickly became a long-distance relationship when Bryan went to India for more than a month to film The Cheetah Girls: One World, her third Disney TV-movie.

The two continued to date at the beginning of Dancing with the Stars currently airing sixth season -- for which Ballas is still in the running with Olympic figure skater Kristi Yamaguchi.
