This week’s Halloween-themed episode ended in another shocking elimination. Many fans thought the time had finally come for Andy Richter and his partner, Emma Slater, to go home.

The reality star seemed to smile when the elimination was announced. She quickly dropped the smile, but not before viewers saw it. One DWTS fan took to social media to call Whitney out for the rude reaction. The reality star was “so fake,” they wrote. Whitney Leavitt is already under fire from viewers after her shocking reaction to her son being in the hospital was unearthed.

Jen Affleck’s Husband Slams Fan, Denies Happy She’s Off Show

Jen Affleck’s husband, Zac, was in the live studio audience for what would be her last appearance on DWTS. Cameras caught him with his head down in disbelief when Jen’s name was called during the elimination.

 

One DWTS fan took to TikTok to joke about Zac’s reaction. The fan recreated Jen’s husband finding out she was leaving the show. @taylormcrae hopped on the trend that portrays people being upset about something, only to make a funny face at the camera to hint they weren’t really upset.

The video came across Zac Affleck’s feed and he did not appreciate the joke at all. He slammed the content creator in the comments. “You’re honestly disgusting,” he wrote. “Grow up.”

Next week, the remaining DWTS contestants get their rock on. It’s Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Night with special guest judge (and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer) Flavor Flav. Don’t miss it on Tuesday, November 4.
