Summary
Movie-goers watched Alexa PenaVega grow up on the big screen in the Spy Kids franchise. TV viewers watched her and her hubby, Carlos PenaVega, make history by being the first married couple to compete on the same season of Dancing with the Stars!
Alexa joins Cheryl to dish all about joining season 21 of DWTS, including the boundaries that she and her hubby set before joining the show, difficulties they faced as a married couple on set, what was said about her that made her feel defeated, thoughts on Mark Ballas' teaching style, and being annoyed she got bleeped in one of her packages when she didn't say a bad word!
Alexa also gets candid about the heartache of their daughter's stillbirth, how their faith helped them get through the other side of pain, and their plans for the future.
