The show must go on! The Dancing with the Stars tour is continuing to crisscross America with its professional dancers and special guests. But for the immediate future the one pro who will be sitting out is Rylee Arnold, who was partnered with Olympica medalist Stephen Nedoroscik.
On an Instagram post, she wrote: “Love you all thank you so much for the support and kind messages I have already received, can’t wait to get back on the stage and to see and meet all of you guys ❤️ @DWTS Live!”
But in the video that accompanied the post, she explained in more detail:
“Hi, guys! I just wanted to give you guys a quick update. I’m sure you heard or saw that last night at the Salt Lake City show that I injured and sprained my ankle and was not able to continue dancing for the rest of the show. The good news is it isn’t broken, it is sprained. I am going to take this time to heal so I can make it back to the show.”
She went on to elaborate that she will be missing the Salt Lake City show [March 28], the Las Vegas show [March 29], and the Temecula shows [March 30] while she’s healing.
Then she adds, “But the incredible Kailyn Rogers, who I love so much, will be stepping in for me for those shows while I’m healing. I am determined to get better, and I will do everything in my power to get back to you guys and to perform for all of you. This tour has been so amazing, and I can’t wait to get back on that stage."
Fellow pro dancer Ezra Sosa posted, "I'm gonna miss you so so much."
And DWTS Live! wrote: "All the love."
Earlier, right after the injury, Rylee had posted the news for her fans with an apology:
“Hey Everyone! So sorry for all of you standing outside waiting to meet me but I injured myself during the show and I don’t feel the best when walking. I’ll keep you posted on my injury but I need to rest for now. Love you all so much.”
The DWTS tour is scheduled to run until April 19. Among the celebrity guest stars at various dates are the aforementioned Stephen Nedoroscik, as well as Chandler Kinney, Ilona Maher, Joey Graziadei and Jenna Johnson.
