Taking to Instagram and TikTok, Leavitt recently shared a video where she addressed some frequently asked questions from fans. In a caption, she thanked her fans “for the love and support. Love you guys.”

Leavitt noted, “It’s kind of surreal. Sometimes, I’m really proud at how I handled something. Sometimes, I just have to laugh at myself. Other times, I just cringe at how dramatic I look.”

“I really am proud of her. She has seemingly grown up a lot through the DWTS process. She also looks absolutely incredible & strong, but I am noticing she’s looking even thinner here – I hope she’s not pushing herself too hard.”
“I thought it was a pretty good answer. Even before DWTS, she got a lot of hate and I was wondering how she dealt with it because I know I wouldn’t be able to.”
“Yesss! Those haters can keep bringing those dollars in!”
“They could never make me hate you.”
“I love the haters that tell you you’re too good at dancing to be on DWTS. Like okay, that’s actually an amazing compliment-thanks!”
