When the curtain fell on Season 34 of Dancing with the Stars and Robert Irwin hoisted that Mirrorball Trophy, the victory felt even sweeter – because his pro partner, Witney Carson, wasn’t just celebrating with him on stage. Her husband and kids jumped in, turning the finale into a full-on family celebration.

Joyous Family Win

Carson’s spouse — Carson McAllister — and their two sons didn’t stay backstage. They were part of the moment. McAllister, the longtime love and support behind Carson, stood with pride as his wife’s hard work earned top honors. Their kids added a tender, human touch to the triumph: it wasn’t just a win for Carson and Robert Irwin — it was a win for their whole family.

This finale wasn’t just about choreography and scores. It was about love, togetherness, and showing the world that family can be the strongest cheer squad.

A Growing Family: From Firstborn to “Jet” — Carson’s Life Off the Ballroom Floor

Before the Mirrorball nights and glittering routines, Carson and McAllister were building a life full of love and little feet. Their first son, Kevin Leo, arrived in January 2021, after Carson revealed her pregnancy in July 2020 during a “DWTS” season.

Then, on Mother’s Day 2023, the family expanded again when Carson welcomed her second baby boy, Jet Carson McAllister. She posted the good news on Instagram, writing, “Could there be a better Mother’s Day gift??” and calling her newborn “our Jetty boy.” Their hearts, she said, “doubled in size.”

That growth — from newlyweds to parents of two active boys — frames Carson’s “DWTS” journey in a different light. It’s not just a career for her. It’s a delicate balance between her passion on the dance floor and motherhood, and judging by finale night, she’s doing it all – with grace, love, and the loudest cheer squad imaginable.

Who Carson’s Crew Is: Husband, Kids & Their Role in Her Journey

Carson and McAllister’s story traces back to their high school days in Utah, where they started dating as teenagers and stayed together through long-distance after graduation. They married on January 1, 2016 — just 22 years old, full of hopes.

According to profiles, McAllister’s upbeat positivity and playful spirit helped ground Carson when she was off chasing dance dreams. Over the years, she’s regularly described him as someone who makes “any situation positive and fun.” In response, he’s said that her devotion to their family — even through the demands of dance rehearsals and performances — “sets her apart.”

Their two sons, Kevin Leo and Jet, are more than Instagram moments. They represent the stakes behind many of Carson’s choices: leaving “DWTS” for downtime, reprioritizing family, and finding balance between spotlight and home. The family of four lives in Orlando, Florida.

On a deeper level, the presence of McAllister and their kids at the finale underlines how success for Carson isn’t just personal — it’s shared. It’s about building memories, supporting each other, and showing up together.
