Sharna eveals that she had a lot of friction with one partner in particular when they weren’t twirling together on camera.
The season she returned after she and celeb partner Bobby Bones won the Mirrorball trophy, she “had a partner that was really difficult,” Burgess says.
“I wasn’t able to be in the room alone with him after the first couple of weeks because of things that happened. And so that was rocky, and we were eliminated very quickly.”
Burgess doesn’t name the partner by name, but the next season Burgess appeared in after she danced with Bones, she was paired with actor Jesse Metcalfe (Desperate Housewives)
Metcalfe’s personal publicist tells TVLine: “If she is referring to a time where our client Jesse Metcalfe worked with Ms. Burgess four years ago, the only recollection was that they didn’t get along. Vague insinuations are not only reckless but also irrelevant.”
She says she was not invited back to be a pro in the upcoming Season 32, premiering Tuesday, Sept. 26 on ABC, also revealing on the podcast that “because it was such a shock, because I wasn’t expecting it, it was tough” not being asked back.
