Lindsay Arnold Will not return in season 34 Dancing with the stars – There are good reasons.
“The reason I don’t play shows makes more sense than in the past,” Arnold, 31, By Tiktok says On Saturday, August 30, she explained that she had been in a relationship with the show “open style”.
She added: “At the moment, it’s better for me to go home with my family. There’s a lot of things going on with my girls this fall, and it’s really exciting. I just know I’m exactly where I need to go and where I should be.”
Arnold shared his daughter saint4, then June,2, her husband, Samuel Cusick.
The professional dancer is the seventh female contestant who was eliminated in the 9th season of the pop dance series and has since appeared in 10 seasons of the show, also shedding light on what happened or is not going on behind the scenes.
“First of all, I wasn’t asked to come back. The producers didn’t contact me and I refused them and said, ‘No, I don’t want to do that.’ Like, it didn’t happen,” she explained. (Arnold left the show in 2021 after Season 30.)

She also explained that it would be difficult to hear her actors if she decided she wanted to participate again, waiting for the show team to hear back, which would be difficult and potentially upend the lives of her children.
“I’ll wait like every other professional to find out if I have a job in the season, and that’s another dynamic, even if I express my interest, it’s so difficult, even if I don’t have an interest, but if I have me, I’ll wait until recently to find honesty, whether it’s necessary to live in California, or whether it’s necessary to live there or move there, or move there.
As she said, not attending the show is the best decision for her family – but never said it.
