Bergeron took to Instagram for the first time after revealing that he was no longer going to be the co-host of “Dancing with the Stars (DWTS).” He shared a photo of him kneeling and smiling next to a notice board on a hiking trail.

The board is visible in Broadmoor Seven Falls in Colorado Springs. According to his post, the hiking trail is in an area called Seven Falls Trail/Inspiration Point.

SUPPORTING HUMAN RIGHTS

The message on it promoted the Black Lives Matter initiative, human rights, LGBTIQ+ rights, and more. In the caption of the post, Bergeron noted:

“This trail is called Inspiration Point. I can see why.”

On the same Tuesday, Bergeron, who hails from Haverhill, Massachusetts, posted a note revealing that he wasn’t going to return for the next season of DWTS. Fans of the dance competition probably know that he’s been with it since the first episode on June 1, 2005.
