We’re pouring up dirty sodas to celebrate this news. Dancing with the Stars Season 34 has added The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives stars Jen Affleck and Whitney Leavitt. MomTok is coming for the Mirroball Trophy!
It shouldn’t be too surprising to see some representation from the hit Hulu show on Season 34. The Mormon Wives have taken the reality TV world by storm. Dancing with the Stars is a logical next step.
Dancing with the Stars Season 34 adds Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Jen and Whitney
Since Dancing with the Stars and SLOMW are all underneath the Disney umbrella, Whitney and Jen’s casting was announced during June 30’s Mormon Wives reunion special. Host Nick Viall, who competed on Season 24 of DWTS, said that the whole Mormon Wives cast auditioned for the upcoming season. Allegedly, Jen and Whitney were “so adored” by the DWTS producers that they both made the cut. Sorry to everyone else.
The news of Jen’s casting comes just days after she went into labor during a nail appointment. We’re not sure how she’s going to manage being a new mom and competing for the Mirrorball Trophy, but we shan’t underestimate the tenacity of the Mormon spirit.
Other stars confirmed for Season 34 include Australia’s sweetheart, Robert Irwin, and influencer Alix Earle. The rest of the cast will be announced on Good Morning America literally any moment now. Expect to see at least one controversial person in the lineup — there’s always one.
Season 33’s cast featured reality stars like Phaedra Parks and Jenn Tran, with the Mirrorball Trophy ultimately going to Bachelor alum Joey Graziadei. Will the trophy stay in the hands of a reality star? Stay tuned for the full cast reveal!
Dancing with the Stars is streaming on Disney+.
