'Dancing With the Stars' season 23 news: Sasha gets proposal; Vanilla Ice is out

"Dancing with the Stars" has seen numerous iconic moments, such as Janel and Val getting a perfect score or Sadie and Mark's tribute to Pixar's "Up." This season's fourth week, however, featured another iconic moment when Alexander "Sasha" Farber proposed to Emma Slater.

Emma and her partner, politician Rick Perry, were eliminated last Sept. 27 during the show's third week. Although she was no longer coaching to participate, she was around as she and Sasha have been a part of the "Dancing with the Stars" family for several seasons, and fans have followed their relationship ever since.

The couple began dating in 2011, and this relationship lasted until 2014. They got back together in December 2015, although the exact details of their reunion have never been fully disclosed. Their relationship took one more step forward in season 23 week 4 when Sasha proposed in front of the audience, and Emma said yes.

Meanwhile, of the current participants, two couples have been eliminated. The first couple taken out of the competition was that of singer Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds and his coach, Allison Holker. The couple performed a Tango dance to the song "Come Together" by The Beatles.

As noted by a report from Entertainment Weekly, the rest of the night saw Jana and Gleb, James and Sharna and Vanilla Ice and Witney in trouble and close to elimination. Jana and Gleb performed a Foxtrot dance to "Here Comes the Sun" by The Beatles and were the last couple to be called safe.

In the end, Vanilla Ice and Witney were eliminated, despite performing a praised Viennese Waltz dance to the song "La Nouba" by Benoit Jutras. It should be noted that during this night, several new dances, such as Jazz and Samba, were introduced to the celebrity dancers.

"Dancing with the Stars" will return with week 5 on Oct. 10.
