Closer Weekly: Brooke Burke Created Intimate Date Nights during Quarantine with Scott Rigsby
The couple has been together for a little over a year. She credits isolation due to quarantine with having enough time to get to know each other better.
After her second divorce, Brooke Burke, 49, was sure she would never again have anything to do with another partner or marriage. However, the "Dancing with the Stars" student was not counting on meeting Scott Rigsby, 52, and both of them falling in love.
Burke and Rigsby have been isolated by quarantine for six months and during this time they have been sharing and getting to know each other better. Spending all of their time together has led them to practice ways to strengthen their relationship.

One of the things that they have put into practice is creating date nights and maintaining their intimacy. Although they share all meals together, they have made an effort to continue having special moments such as candlelight dinners or flowers to keep the romance going.
Burke said: “Scott and I have had date nights at home. We pretty much had every meal for four to six months, but we would make the effort to light candles and put flowers on the table.”
She thinks that he is a great father to her two children and one of the things she loves most about him is how responsible, devoted, and kind he is to them.
FUTURE TOGETHER
Before she started dating the real estate agent, Burke was very disappointed in the marriage. Her previous experience led her to have that appreciation, however, at this time her way of thinking has changed.
She claims that she has been thinking about it a lot and that the right person can make people think about it again. Although the couple has not commented on it, their followers are expecting good news soon.
GREAT MIXED FAMILY
The "Wild On!" Star was married to her first husband, Garth Fisher, from 2001 to 2005. She was then married to her second husband, David Charvet, from 2011 to 2018.
She is the proud mother of her four children: Neriah, 20, Sierra, 18, with ex-husband Garth Fisher, and Heaven, 13, and Shaya, 12, with ex-husband David Charvet. Rigsby, on the other hand, has two children from a previous relationship.
INVESTING IN THE RELATIONSHIP
The former "Dancing with the Stars" host has explained that her children are happy with their relationship with Rigsby. She is really happy with him as a stepfather to them, because he is really loving.
She thinks that he is a great father to her two children and one of the things she loves most about him is how responsible, devoted, and kind he is to them. This time in quarantine has allowed them to learn to relate to each other and connect better.
Burke has commented in an interview: “Rather than meeting for happy hour or going out to a sexy dinner, we woke up, we worked together, we ate together, we cooked together [and] our kids were together. So it was a really interesting time. And fortunately for us, it was a great season.”
