Woman Tries Viral Dancing with the Stars Move with 'Work Hubby' (Exclusive)

An innocent take on a TikTok dance trend recently went viral because of the undeniable chemistry between dance partners.

Julie Noyes, on TikTok @dogtorjulie, is a veterinarian who shared the video in which she and her “work husband” Mike gave their take on “Operation Archer,” the now-viral leg lift performed by Danny Amendola and Witney Carson the October 16th episode of Dancing with the stars.

“DWTS with my work husband,” she wrote on TikTok, where there were wild comments from people who were deeply invested in the pair's connection after seeing the chemistry between them in the video.

It turns out that, as commenters had suspected, Mike is more than just a working husband – he's also Julie's actual husband!

“Mike and I are both veterinarians and own our own veterinary clinic. We are partners in every sense of the word — at home and at work,” Julie tells PEOPLE.

Julie explains that she unknowingly piqued her followers' interest in their relationship when she shared another video.

“I had posted another video of me dancing interpretively so Mike would leave early, and a lot of people thought there was something salacious going on,” she laughs.

“I said, 'Mike, you know what's really going to upset her?!' We laughed at all the comments.

In another series of videos, the two tried out the lift Dirty dancingwhich they achieved in just five minutes and two attempts.

“What you see is what we did! “We have very little free time to do these things, so I use it whenever I can – usually five minutes during lunch,” explains Julie.

“We did two takes for it Dirty dancing Elevator. The first one was a failure, which I also shared because it’s hilarious.”

The couple were amused when the videos went viral as neither of them consider themselves to be “really good dancers”.

“I see funny TikToks online and ask him to do them with me and he does! We have fun fooling around. I started making TikToks with my co-workers to boost morale and create a way to connect with each other,” she adds.

“Our jobs can be emotionally demanding, so my job is to create a safe and positive culture to protect my team from burnout; messing around on TikTok is just one way I do that.”

The nice way to have fun together and relieve stress is sure to stay that way, says Julie.

“I'm sure I'll find many more dances that I can convince Mike to try. We will take advantage of every opportunity to laugh together!”
