Mario Lopez and Karina Smirnoff Officially a Couple

US Weekly caught Mario Lopez and Karina Smirnoff having a very affectionate time together at the beach. There’s no denying these two are a couple, even if they are just lovers and nothing more. Love is in the air, and it never looked so good. Here’s the US Weekly story below:

Dancing with the Stars’ runner-up team, Mario Lopez, 33, and Karina Smirnoff are officially real-life partners as well. On November 26, the pair jetted to Punta Mita for a five-day escape at Casa Armara, the luxury estate owned by Girls Gone Wild entrepreneur Joe Francis.

Their agenda: plenty of PDA. During a quick dip “she wrapped her legs around him, and they kissed for what seemed like ever,” says an onlooker of their beach frolics. “She was giggling and a little bit shy as he kissed her butt. Mario didn’t care and kept kissing her.”

“We just happened to click,” Lopez told Us recently. “We make each other laugh…I’ve got nothing but love for her.” What about their dynamic off the dance floor? Says a Lopez pal, “She bosses him around – and he loves it!”
