Fans wondered what the dynamic is like with the cast after they noticed that Emma appeared to take a dig at Hilaria on social media.

It happened when Emma and Andy posted a joint Instagram video jokingly boasting about making it to Week 4 in the competition.

The clip showed the pair walking backstage while being admired and getting special treatment from the staff.

The duo skated by this last week, after receiving one of the lowest score totals of all the contestants.

They were saved another week when Fifth Harmony alum Lauren Jauregui and her partner, Brandon Armstrong, were eliminated for having the fewest number of votes.

Fans expressed in the comments that they preferred Andy and Emma over some other Season 34 contestants – namely, calling out Hilaria.

“I promise to vote for him instead of Hilaria,” one person wrote” garnering a slew of likes and comments, including from Emma herself.

“NOT HER LIKING THIS,” a follower pointed out, adding several crying emojis.

The exchange was screengrabbed and shared on a popular DWTS forum, where fans weighed in on Emma’s subtle diss toward Hilaria.

“I’ll assume it was aimed more at the person saying they’d vote for Andy but if Emma’s being messy I love her for it,” someone said in the thread

“NOT EMMA BEING MESSY,” another laughed.

“Ok Emma I wasn’t familiar with your game,” a third remarked.

“Emma of all people being messy haha this is the woman who is everyone’s friend!” a fourth added.

Before the season even started, Hilaria was apparently making diva demands behind the scenes and was laser-focused on winning.

The U.S. Sun exclusively reported in early September that Hilaria was “obsessed” with securing the victory and making a name for herself, apart from being Alec Baldwin’s wife.

“This isn’t about a trophy, it’s about finally stepping out of Alec’s shadow,” an insider revealed.

“She sees this as her time to shine, and she’s even asking Alec to try to get his celebrity friends in the audience to cheer her on,” they claimed.

The source also alleged that Hilaria requested to rehearse in a private studio with mirrored walls so she “could focus on her aura.”

She also reportedly banned fluorescent lighting from her dressing room, replacing it with ambient lighting to set the mood before showtime.

NOT HAPPY

An insider also claimed that Hilaria wasn’t thrilled about being paired with Gleb, who’d created quite the reputation after dating his former partner, Brooks Nader, who accused him of being unfaithful.

They said that Hilaria went “ballistic” over the decision, and was vying for Jen Affleck’s partner, newbie DWTS pro and Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour dancer, Jav Ravnik.

Hilaria had a rough week and nearly broke down in tears after receiving harsh criticism from the judges about her performance.

Days earlier, Hilaria agreed with an online comment saying the judges were “not credible,” after again narrowly escaping elimination.

The other celebrity contestants still in the running include Jordan Chiles, Alix Earle, Dylan Efron, Danielle Fishel, Whitney Leavitt, Scott Hoying, and Robert Irwin.
