Peta Murgatroyd Says She’s ‘Ready’ for a ‘DWTS’ Return

In a June 2025 interview with Us Weekly, Murgatroyd discussed a possible return to “DWTS” after being away to spend time with her family.

The dance pro welcomed her third child last year and wasn’t ready to hit the “DWTS” season 33 dance floor, but says she feels like she’s up for the challenge now.

“Right now, I do feel like I have a bit of a weight lifted off my shoulders,” she said. “I’ve gotten through that first, you know, newborn stage again. So I feel like I would be ready to go back.”

Murgatroyd continued, “I love the show. I love what it’s about. I love training people [and] teaching them how to dance. I love the performance aspect of it.”

 

She confirmed, “So, yes, if they did come to me and want me back, I would say yes.”

“Makes me feel like I am back in the trailers … I very much miss being on that show,” she shared.

Murgatroyd continued, “I miss performing, I miss being there, and I miss my friends — they’re literally like family to me. Sometimes I just reminisce on ‘Dancing With the Stars’ days and partners and which season I would love to redo … or just have that same experience all over again because it was so amazing.”

She added, “Winning ‘Dancing With the Stars’ is such a rush. It’s such a high. It’s so amazing.”
