'Dancing' poll: Are Ochocinco, Burke dating?

April 12, 2010

That's why everyone wants to know: are Cheryl Burke and Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco dating?

Cheryl recently started sporting a $10,000 diamond ring, a gift from her pigskin-playing dance partner.

She says it's just a 'friendship ring,' with Chad saying it's a thank you gift for Burke putting up with him.

So far this season, the couple's flirtatious behavior has sparked rumors that the two are dating, but both have been dancing around the question.

Judge for yourself when "Dancing with the Stars" airs Monday night at 8:00 p.m. on 6abc.

Burke told Ellen DeGeneres' viewers Friday that her Latin rumba with Chad will be "probably the sexiest rumba we've ever had (on the show)."
