Daniella Karagach Details Dance Battle Against Husband Pasha Pashkov

'Dancing With the Stars' Shockingly Eliminates Frontrunner Before Semi-FinalsDaniella Karagach always finds her rhythm with husband Pasha Pashkov. While the Dancing With the Stars pros were up against each other during the dance battle on the Nov. 10 Grammy Night episode, it didn’t feel like they were in competition as they danced the rumba alongside partners Ezra Frech and Amber Glenn to Brandy and Monica’s “The Boy Is Mine.” “I wouldn't think of it as against them,” Karagach exclusively shared with E! News. “We were literally just practicing our rumba as if we were the only ones on the floor, and then we get to share the stage at the end of the day with them.” And the 33-year-old hit just the right step with her husband of 12 years, adding, “When we got to block this for the first time with them, it was just so fun.” Her partner Frech, 21, also had a ball dancing with Glenn, 27, and Pashkov, 40, telling E! it felt more like a team dance than a dance battle.“Amber and I didn't get to be on the same team—the team dance,” he recalled of the Nov. 2 episode. “Now we did. We got it tonight.” Throughout the competition, Karagach and Pashkov—who share 3-year-old daughter Nikita—have shared what it’s like for them in the ballroom, with Karagach noting it never feels like they’re competing. “Literally he's my teammate,” she told E! News after the DWTS premiere. “He's my partner. He's my rock.”Disney/Christopher Willard“It’s just never a competition,” she added. “He's either helping me or I'm helping him.” And that closeness has extended to Frech and Glenn as Karagach said the quartet “have dinner all together.” “We go to our house and just unwind,” she continued. “It's just the best time. It doesn't feel like a competition.” And Frech could not agree more, adding, “Pasha and Amber are—they're unbelievable. I love them so much.” For a look at all the stars hoping to take home the famed Mirrorball Trophy this season, keep reading.Disney/Andrew EcclesJulia Stiles & Ezra SosaThe 10 Things I Hate About You star had her last dance with her pro partner during Nov. 2's Disney Night.Disney/Andrew EcclesGiada De Laurentiis & Alan BerstenThe celebrity chef couldn't cha-cha-chop away the competition and was eliminated during the Sept. 22 episode.Disney/Andrew EcclesHarry Shum Jr. & Jenna JohnsonWhat did you miss on Glee?
