This is an I-Heart podcast.

This is Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans with me, Cheryl Burke, and IHeart Radio podcast.

Hey guys, welcome back to Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans.

We are joined once again by a trusted friend to the show at this point.

She really needs no introduction.

partner, it can be very difficult and challenging because your husband or wife is making a

connection with somebody else. You're grinding up against each other. You're spending long

hours together. And chemistry does happen. And you have to be strong in your foundation,

dancing with the stars. Right. And honestly, I'm not saying just let go of the relationships that

Because what is the most important thing to build is trust with one another?
