Many wonder if Olympic figure skater Charlie White is dating his skating partner Meryl Davis his partner for over 16 years, the truth is that Charlie has his ice princess, but that is not Davis but Tanith Belbin the Canadian figure skater who skated for years with Ben Agosto and now t.v commentator and choreographer, and I am sure Tanith will be showing her support for Charlie who is among the contestants at this 18th season of Dancing With the Stars.
Charlie White the son of Jacqui and Charlie White Sr. won the gold for the U.S at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia that medal was the first Olympic medal he ever won but not the first medal throughout his career, after all he has won 16 and we can be sure there will be more.
Charlie was born in Royal Oak, Michigan on October 24, 1987, attended at Roeper School in Birmingham, Michigan and is currently studying political science at the University of Michigan. He has been dating Tanith Belbin since 2011.

She moved to Montreal when she was two, around the same time she became interested in skating and performing; she also started dancing, did gymnastics and played soccer, at the end it was soccer and skating what she enjoyed the most.
Belbin also like to be in the spotlight, and after doing some modeling and acting jobs it was at the early age of 11 that she had her true acting opportunity, however her mother was aware that even though her precocious daughter could have a career as an actress, figure skating was what Tanith really loved.
In 1998 at the age of 13, Michele Belbin and her daughter moved to Detroit where she trained with Igor Shpilband and paired up with Ben Agosto. She received an immigrant worker visa in 2000, and her green card two years later.
