Dancing With The Stars pro Val Chmerkovskiy is back in the ballroom.
According to People, Chmerkovskiy resumed rehearsals with celebrity partner Jenna Dewan as of Wednesday, Oct. 21. He is expected to return to the show on Tuesday, Oct. 27, for “Horror Movie Night.”
As a result of the dancer’s one-show suspension, which was briefly addressed by hosts Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough at the top of Tuesday’s “Dedication Night” episode, Dewan performed with pro Alan Bersten.
The couple scored a 37/40 for their Viennese waltz to “Unchained Melody” by the Righteous Brothers dedicated to Dewan’s mother, Nancy.
“Thank you for stepping in and doing such an amazing job,” Chmerkovskiy wrote in the comment section of Bersten’s Instagram post showcasing the routine. “Jenna looks so good and most importantly happy.”

The suspension was handed down by BBC Studios over comments Chmerkovskiy made about judge Carrie Ann Inaba on TikTok.
The controversy began the day after the show’s “Super Bowl Night,” during which Inaba offered harsh criticism of Chmerkovskiy’s wife, DWTS pro Jenna Johnson, and her celebrity partner, Harry Shum Jr.
In a since-deleted post, Chmerkovskiy reacted to Inaba’s comments, writing, “You almost saw Fresh Prince enter the ballroom last night,” seemingly referencing Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars.
In a statement released on Saturday, Oct. 17, BBC Studios announced the dancer’s punishment, saying, “The well-being of everyone who works on Dancing with the Stars is non-negotiable. Val’s social media post was inappropriate and does not reflect the values or standards expected of anyone connected with the show. As a result, he will not participate in next week’s show.”
In a statement shared to his Instagram Story that same day, Chmerkovskiy addressed his suspension and apologized again for his comments. He had previously apologized to Inaba via Instagram after his post went viral online.
Inaba did not address Chmerkovskiy’s absence during Tuesday’s show.
DWTS airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC and Disney+.
