Why Rylee Arnold Says Partner Connor Wood Was Not Fully “Prepared” for Premiere
Connor Wood may have the purse, but he missed Bruno Tonioli’s golden advice.
After the Dancing With the Stars judge pulled the podcaster over after his and Rylee Arnold’s tango, Connor revealed what it was Bruno whispered into his ear.
“Bruno was sharing with me that basically, ‘I believe in you. And you have this, and this,’” the 31-year-old revealed to E! News after the Sept. 22 episode. “And then he said, ‘Make sure—’ and they took me away.”
“So, what is it?” he lamented. “I gotta find Bruno, basically. I got cut off before the big nugget of wisdom.”
But in the meantime, the basic fact that Bruno wanted to pass along more advice that didn’t make it into his feedback means the world.
“Bruno, bless his heart,” Connor added. “I’m just so lucky that these people so clearly care about me, and they see something in me which I’m so—that gives me chills when I think about it.”
While Connor and Rylee’s week one cha-cha earned them 16 points, their week two tango to Sombr‘s “12 to 12” fell just short with a combined score of 15.
