The first celebrity-pro partnership for Season 35 of Dancing with the Stars could be revealed very soon. DWTS insider Kristyn Burtt claims that the first official pairing will be announced Monday on Good Morning America.
First DWTS Season 35 Partnership Revealed Soon?
Dancing with the Stars insider Kristyn Burtt recently shared a TikTok video claiming that on Monday, August 17, a celebrity-pro partnership for Season 35 will officially be revealed on ABC’s Good Morning America.
Burtt explained that the announcement happening on GMA Monday “makes complete sense,” as ABC will air a new episode of DWTS: The Next Pro later that same day. She added that fans can expect “a lot of cross-promotion” as we get closer to the Next Pro finale.
It’s not clear as of this writing whether Monday’s announced partnership will feature a celebrity who has already been revealed as part of the cast for Season 35, or if it will be someone whose participation has not yet been announced.
So far, only four celebrity cast members have been officially revealed so far — Maura Higgins, Ciara Miller, Jackson Olson, and Guillermo Rodriguez. The roster of pro dancers has yet to be confirmed.
