Two Dancing With the Stars contestants are battling illnesses ahead of the show’s highly anticipated Dedication Night.
Emma Slater revealed on social media that her season 34 partner, Andy Richter, has been under the weather all week.
“This is Andy’s daughter, Cornelia! She’s going to be in a dance this week, and we cannot be more excited!” Slater, 36, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, October 12. “We’ve had a week of illness and I’ll be honest with you, it’s been hard and I’m so appreciative for @richtercommaandy for all of the hard work and commitment he has put into learning this salsa. I know how happy he is to be dancing with Cornelia and for them to have this moment together.”
Despite not feeling his best, Richter, 56, appears motivated to deliver an emotional dance to “Jump In the Line” by Harry Belafonte.
