Monday’s episode wasn’t a double elimination round as originally planned due to the departure of one of the show’s contestants. However, it was still packed with emotion with reality star Kaitlyn Bristowe crying to her dance partner Artem Chigvintsev during rehearsal.

Jeannie Mai, who had to withdraw from the competition due to a throat abscess, appeared remotely on the show later.

She complained to him that she was struggling after receiving low scores the week before. Singer Nelly dedicated his rumba to his late sister, Jacqueline "Jackie" Donahue, 31, who was diagnosed with leukemia on March 29, 2001, and sadly died in 2005.
