Vienna and Jake haven’t had much time to celebrate their engagement, as he joined the Dancing with the Stars cast about 10 minutes after The Bachelor finale. But at least Tuesday night, Vienna Girardi will get in on the ratings action reunite with her man again, according to Chelsie Hightower, Jake’s partner this season. “We had our second rehearsal today and surprisingly, Vienna isn’t nervous at all,” says Hightower. “If it were me, I think I’d be vomiting all night, not sleeping.” “But Vienna is doing really well and she’s so excited.” Like all of the other season 10 couples, she and Pavelka will take to the floor together and perform one last dance – theirs is the Viennese Waltz – at the finale. Girardi and Dmitry Chaplin will join them on the floor, “then Dmitry and I will hand Jake and Vienna over to each other,” Hightower says.
