The relationship hard launch comes just weeks after PEOPLE confirmed that Parrish had split from her husband of seven years, Chris Long.

The actress married Long in 2018, roughly a year after they got engaged following a year of dating.

Sasha Farber and Janel Parrish first hinted at their relationship on April 9, when Parrish posted a TikTok video dancing with Farber and joked they had “run into” each other in a “parking lot.”

She posted another dancing video on April 21 after Farber gave her "salsa lessons," and he posted a video of them dancing the following day. Farber also visited Parrish on the set of a new movie, he shared in an April 24 TikTok.

Prior to Parrish, Farber dated Bachelorette star Jenn Tran, with whom he competed on season 33 of DWTS, for close to a year. PEOPLE confirmed their split in June 2025.

Before that, Farber was married to his DWTS costar Emma Slater from 2018 to 2022. He proposed during a live taping of the show in 2017, but they split in 2022, and Slater, 37, filed for divorce in 2023.
