Sasha Farber is back in the ballroom.
After being excluded from the Dancing With the Stars season 35 main cast of pros and celebrities, Farber returned to his stomping grounds during the Sept. 15 premiere by covering the series for ABC on social media, alongside The Bachelorette‘s Kaitlyn Bristowe, while also taking on a new role on stage.
“@sashafarber1 and @kaitlynbristowe are hanging out backstage,” ABC’s official DWTS account announced on Instagram Sept. 14, “and they’re taking you with them!”
Host Alfonso Ribeiro explained that Farber, who has danced in 12 different seasons of the competition, and Bristowe, who won season 29 with partner Artem Chigvintsev, will share all the behind-the-scenes insights as TikTok correspondents. The Russia native had previously covered episodes on social media during season 34, alongside other familiar faces from the show that year including Gleb Savchenko, Brandon Armstrong, and Emma Slater.
