It's been a good week for Melissa Rycroft.

On Monday night, she earned raves from the judges - along with 23 combined points - for her initial performance on Dancing with the Stars.

Days later, the scored Bachelor suitor is an Us Weekly cover girl, speaking happily about the new man in her life. Rycroft says she is dating an insurance agent named Ty.

"We've been really good friends, but the timing was never right," she told the tabloid. "With all this going on, he's my support system. It's funny how things happen."
