"Sport-wise, I mean, I don't mind. Now, in gymnastics, no, I don't think I would date another gymnast. Yeah. Like, I could be an NBA wife. I could be, yeah, I can be an NFL wife. You know, all those things. So, might as well. Pop off."

When the host anticipated that her DMs would now be full of messages, Chiles highlighted that it happens every time she speaks about her relationship.

"It happens every time. Every time." (37:00 onwards)

Jordan Chiles opened up about managing her academics at UCLA and her appearance on Dancing with the Stars, highlighting that she has requested the counselors to allow her to attend her classes online. Although it is difficult to balance, Chiles wants to finish the academic year strong.

"This quarter, I told my coaches and my academic counselor, 'Hey, can we make sure everything is online? Because that’s going to be the easiest for me.' And so, I have all of my stuff online. I’ve just been trying to make sure I do as much homework as possible, especially if they’re asynchronous, and I can just kind of go at my own pace. But (balancing it all has) been really fun. It’s my senior year, so I’m trying to enjoy the best of it and just really finish everything out as strongly as possible." (via newsroom.ucla.edu)
