Dancing professional Karina Smirnoff spoke about her breakup with boyfriend Mario Lopez during an interview on Monday. Smirnoff talked with E!s Chelsea Handler about her former "Dancing With the Stars" partner.

Handler told Smirnoff that they had heard that Lopez had been cheating on Smirnoff for close to a year with a Hooters waitress.

Smirnoff said she heard the same news a few days earlier and found it to be upsetting.

She did say that worse things could have happened, using the example of Hugh Grant's prostitute Divine Brown.

Handler replied that what would have really been worse would've been learning that Lopez cheated on her with another man.
