As Whitney Leavitt Tearfully Spoke About Being Eliminated On Dancing With The Stars, The Cast Showed All The Love In The Comments

by

Many viewers were surprised when Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas were eliminated from the latest episode of Dancing with the Stars. They had consistently scored high throughout the season, making their semifinal exit unexpected. Now, Whitney, known from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, has spoken about the elimination, and her tearful video has received a wave of support from the show’s cast in the comments.

Whitney Leavitt Reflected On Her Dancing With The Stars Experience Through Tears

As a huge “Survivor” fan, I was really interested to hear what Whitney Leavitt had to say after she got voted off. She put out a video on TikTok and Instagram talking about how different it is for regular contestants versus pros. She pointed out that when pros get eliminated, they actually keep working on the show behind the scenes, but the stars are truly sent packing. It was a bit of a shock to her, she explained, because she thought she’d still be involved in some way after leaving, but that wasn’t the case.

Being on Dancing with the Stars means you spend a lot of time with the same people every day, and when the show ends, it can feel like a real loss – almost like going through a breakup. Right now, it feels like I’m really missing everyone and adjusting to not seeing them constantly.

She admitted feeling “weird” and “sad” about not being at the studio this week. She also fondly remembered the real friendships she made while working on the show, and became particularly emotional when talking about her partnership with Mark Ballas, as shown in the following clip.

Watching Whitney Leavitt react to her elimination, I was struck by her honesty. Yes, she was disappointed, but it was clear this whole experience on Dancing with the Stars had been incredibly meaningful for her. The outpouring of support in the comments section – so many people connected to the show reaching out – really drove that point home. It was genuinely touching to see.

Along with Andy Richter not holding back about Leavitt’s elimination – he said it was “absolutely insane” – a lot of the DWTS cast showed up to support the reality star. From some of this season’s frontrunners, like Alix Earle, to pros to other eliminated contestants, many shared their love and support in the comments of her posts on both TikTok and Instagram:

  • Alix Earle: Love you 💗 the sweetest person ever and getting to know you was amazing you should be so proud of yourself
  • Scott Hoying: you are SUCH a star!!!! love you!!!
  • Witney Carson: Love you 😭 you’re an absolute star
  • Danielle Fishel: This is just the beginning!! I know the sadness is soooo real – I’ve been there – and it means we loved HARD!!

Besides the Dancing with the Stars cast, Leavitt’s husband, Conner, also shared his thoughts. He highlighted the strong support his wife received from the people she connected with during her time on the show.

So incredibly happy that you got this experience and walked away with genuine friendships 🖤

Many people connected to Dancing with the Stars – or fans of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives cast member – showed their support for her during the dance competition. Here’s what some former pros and stars from past seasons had to say:

  • Hannah Brown: Loved watching you dance!! Rooting for you in whatever is next! 🫶
  • Lindsay Arnold: You’re amazing Whit!! You were a STAR every single week and should be so proud of yourself!!! 👏👏👏🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
  • Brooks Nader: It’s the worst!! But the experience is with you forever❤️
  • Jenn Tran: LOVE YOU I’m in awe of your grace and so proud of you 🥰❤❤❤

Dancing with the Stars demands a lot of work from its celebrity contestants, and they spend months working closely with the same group of people. It’s understandably difficult when that intense experience suddenly ends, especially when they’re nearing the final stages of the competition. That’s why Whitney Leavitt’s emotional response and the outpouring of support for her are completely understandable.
