Former soap opera star, Chrishell Stause, who is current appearing on the reality series Selling Sunset and the the new season of ABC’s Dancing with the Stars, shared some personal news with PEOPLE that she hopes to start a family

In the exclusive, Stause shares, “I have taken the steps to freeze my eggs.”  Adding,  “I definitely had a different idea for where I would be at this age and stage in my life.  There’s a family aspect that I’m missing that I hope is still a possibility for me.”

Of course, Stause is still pretty fresh off her shocking marriage break-up in November of 2019 with This is Us star, Justin Hartley.  But because of that she wants to take the pressure off of herself and a potential life partner in terms of a time-frame to bring kids into the world.

Meanwhile, Stause continues to prepare each week for ballroom dance competition on Dancing with the Stars with pro partner, Gleb Savchenko

She admitted that she was actually getting ready to freeze her eggs when she joined the cast for season 29 of DWTS.  “I was in the middle of the process when DWTS approached me. So for the first weeks of rehearsal, I was giving myself daily hormone shots while learning the tango, and the procedure was done a few days before the premiere of the show.”

So, what do you think about Chrishell’s plans to become a mom when she is ready?  Are you rooting her on Dancing with the Stars? Comment below.

I have no opinion about the freezing eggs issue, but I applaud her for going ahead with her long-held desire to be a mother and especially for moving past the awful way JH treated her. If ever there was an example of an actor of letting his success go to his head. So I wish Chrishell every success in whatever she decides to do in the future. She deserved better.

I don’t really care about her wanting to become a mother so much that we are reading about it! I felt for her after Justin Hartley screwed her over, ending their marriage in the sneaky, underhanded way he did. I just hope she isn’t using an innocent child as a means or a magnet to get him back. He certainly isn’t worth it!

Stause seems sneaky to me. We’ll never know what happened, but Justin Hartley must have found out something for him to react quickly & file for divorce. I think Chrishell knows exactly why they separated, but she is playing the part of rejected spouse.

‘Dancing with the Stars’ Waltzes its Way Back to ABC

In a surprise turn of events, the long-running celebrity dance ballroom competition, Dancing with the Stars, is returning to ABC following its one-year detour to the streaming platform Disney+.

According to Vulture who broke the news, the Disney powers-that-be have decided it makes more sense to meet audiences needs wherever they are.

Therefore, moving forward for its 32nd season, DWTS will air live on the ABC network and continue to stream live on Disney+.

With Bob Iger back in charge at Disney, the business units are determining how content gets distributed, and they feel the show belongs at ABC.

Previously, DWTS was the first live series to debut on Disney+ and the first live streaming reality show in the U.S.

Now, with Julianne Hough set to be the new co-host joining Alfonso Ribiero, looks like there are several other changes underway, including that this will be the first season without former head judge, Len Goodman, who decided to leave the show after last season and recently passed away.

Last season’s Mirror Ball Trophy winners were Mark Ballas and Charli D’Amelio.  Who might compete this year? Time will tell.

So, what do you think of Dancing with the Stars returning to network TV? Will it make you watch the new season? Comment below.

Len Goodman, Former ‘Dancing with the Stars’ Head Judge, Passes Away at 78

Len Goodman, the beloved and often crusty former head judge of Dancing with the Stars, as well as the UK’s Strictly Come Dancing, has died.  Goodman passed away at the age of 78 following his battle with bone cancer.

According to the BBC, Len passed away while at hospice in England over the weekend on Saturday.

Goodman’s agent, Jackie Gill confirmed his passing sharing, “It is with great sadness to announce that Len Goodman has passed away peacefully, aged 78. A much loved husband, father and grandfather who will be sorely missed by family, friends and all who knew him.”

Throughout DWTS run, Len was the on-going presence who was often harsh and critical in his assessment of the celebrity contestants and their dance partners when they didn’t deliver enough of the signature moves from the required style of dance.   However, when you impressed Len, he would often hold up his scoring paddle and utter, “From Len, a 10!”  Those words meant so much to the couples vying for the Mirror Ball trophy each season, because if you could impress Len you felt you were on the right track.

Goodman appeared from the beginning of DWTS in 2005 through last year in 2022, when it was revealed at the end of its 31st season, he would be stepping away from the show to spend more time with his family.  Len also served as head judge on Strictly Come Dancing from 2004-2016.

This morning, following the news of Goodman’s death, Len’s former friend and DWTS colleague and judge, Bruno Tonioli tweeted: “Heartbroken my dear friend and partner for 19 years the one and only ballroom LEGEND #LenGoodman passed away. I will treasure the memories of our adventures @bbcstrictly @officialdwts there will never be anyone like you. you will always be my perfect 10.”

In addition, Carrie Ann Inaba, who along with Tonioli and Goodman have been at the DWTS judges table together during the series run, posted an emotional tribute via her Instagram account paying tribute to her friend and colleague.

Inaba shared: “Dancer. A teacher. A refined gentleman. A wonderful storyteller. A special soul. A mentor. A family man. And… A treasured friend.Saying goodbye at the end of last season broke my heart. But today’s news has shattered it all over again. I can’t believe that you’re gone. 💔 You were one of a kind my dear friend. And I will cherish our memories and hold them close, while I join so many others in mourning your loss. Thank you for all that you shared with us. Your humor, your wisdom, your wit and your truth. Until we meet again…✨Rest In Peace Len 🤍”

When it was revealed that Len was exiting Dancing with the Stars after its 31st season, the series aired a very emotional clip package honoring the man who meant so much to the show, the dancers, and the audience at home.  You can watch it below.

Len is survived by his son James and his wife, Sue Barrett.

Now, share your condolences and remembrances for Len Goodman in the comment section.
