Scratch That—Julianne Hough Still Dancing With Chuck Wicks

Couple was holding hands at the CMA Awards last night

Since we've already learned that hand-holding equals a hot and heavy relationship, we'll have to apply that new rule to people who aren't in vampire movies as well.

Despite reports that 21-year-old Dancing With the Stars hottie Julianne Hough and her 30-year-old country boy Chuck Wicks had called it quits, the handsome pair may still be together.

And how do we know?

Because they were totally holding hands at the CMA Awards last night!

Hough skipped the red carpet—presumably to avoid questions about the breakup—while Wicks was working it for Entertainment Tonight. Later, both were seen standing together chatting with a small group of people backstage during the show. E! News' eyewitness claims they appeared playful, swinging their interlaced hands back and forth as they talked.

E! News was told they had been fighting over who would take possession of the house they own together, but we can assume they were discussing something a bit more upbeat as they watched Taylor Swift walk away with four statuettes.
