Quotes

Kenton about Bella

Bella is just bubbly excitement, doesn’t matter if you’re a stranger or not, she just loves being around people and loves to be kind to them.^[1]

Bella about Kenton

Kenton is so funny and we both work really hard for dancing. We both weren't dancers before the show and Caroline and Zendaya have been dancing since they were really little. We were the only ones who came on with no dance experience, so we've always work together really hard and when everybody isn't practicing we still go over the moves. So I appreciate him working so hard on everything.

I've always known Kenton. I've known him since I've moved out here. He and I are really close. And Adam and I are also really close. They are like my brothers.
(Q: Did you know any of your co-stars before you got the show?) Yes, I knew Kenton Duty. He plays Gunther. He plays my arch-rival, and we're just so close. We're such good friends.'

Joint Quotes

Bella's favorite episode is "Hot Mess It Up!"

Bella: One of my favorite episodes just aired. I got to go on a date with Kenton because I'm his little love kitten, which was a little awkward.

Kenton: Hey, you just told one of my favorite lines! That's one of my favorites as well.^[2]
