During his rise to fame, Smart met Jennifer Lopez while working as a dancer. At the time, she was 42 and he 24. Rumors of their relationship began to simmer in November of 2011 and then the couple was photographed together a few weeks later. They eventually confirmed their relationship, which was the first relationship for Lopez since divorcing ex-husband, Marc Anthony. Lopez has spoken about how helpful Smart was in helping her recover from the divorce. After dating for around two and a half years, the couple decided to break up in mid-2014. They remained good friends during the initial break-up and did reconcile before splitting for good in 2015. In 2019, Smart gave an interview in which he discussed how his immaturity ultimately helped contribute to the split, saying in hindsight he had probably not been ready to be in a relationship with a woman with children. Smart was later romantically linked with model, Breana Tiesi, in 2019.
