In this week’s episode of “Dancing With the Stars” one of Utah’s own has been eliminated — and the internet is not happy.
Whitney Leavitt, an influencer who rose to popularity on TikTok and through Hulu’s “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” and her dance partner, Mark Ballas, received the least amount of fan votes on Tuesday night’s episode.
Her exit came a week ahead of the dance competition’s finale. She spent this season consistently rated at or near the top of the leaderboard by the show’s judges.
Leavitt’s MomTok friends Mikayla Matthews and Layla Taylor — along with hundreds of other fans — expressed disbelief regarding the decision.
“What the actual hell,” Taylor wrote in the Instagram comments of a post from the official “Dancing With the Stars” account.
“HUH,” Matthews added.
