Listen, folks, when ABC rolled out the latest cast of Dancing with the Stars, one name was glaringly missing—Sasha Farber. Fans are scratching their heads, wondering why this incredibly talented pro dancer isn’t back on the show. After all, he took fourth place with Simone Biles last season, so it's not like he doesn’t have the chops. Let's break this down, shall we?
Social media blew up when the lineup was announced. One fan tweeted, “Might not even watch knowing that @SashaFarber is not a pro.” Another chimed in, “@SashaFarber should be a pro every season! What kind of decision-making process led to this? @DancingABC, you’ve got some explaining to do.” Even his former partner, Simone Biles, voiced her disappointment. She wrote, “Hey @SashaFarber. I heard the news, and I’m heartbroken! LOVE YOU! Team Sasha forever! Keep your head high, and I miss you so much!”

Now, Sasha hasn’t exactly spilled the beans on why he’s not back in the spotlight this season. But that doesn’t mean he’s sitting around sulking. Oh no, not Sasha! He’s still a huge supporter of the show and is cheering on his fiancée, Emma Slater, who’s currently dazzling the audience with her moves alongside Property Brothers star Drew Scott. In fact, Sasha recently tweeted, “Ok guys, you know what time it is! Please vote for Drew and Emma at 1800-868 3404.” And to his fans, he added, “I’m incredibly lucky to have such an amazing group of supporters behind me. I love all of you!”
Other Changes in the Pro Roster
It’s not just Sasha who’s feeling the shakeup this season. Jenna Johnson, another beloved pro dancer, also didn’t make the cut. Jenna took a break last season to recover from an injury. In a heartfelt message, she wrote, “After four incredible years, I’m ready to take some time for myself, recharge, and prepare for my next adventure. This isn’t the last you’re going to see of me, so stay tuned! Thank you all for your love and support throughout this amazing journey.”
What’s Next for Sasha?
Let’s face it, shakeups happen. Sasha first joined the DWTS pro roster in Season 17, and while he was bumped to the troupe for four seasons, he eventually made his way back. Hopefully, this time around, it won’t take as long for him to reclaim his spot on the dance floor. Meanwhile, there’s another Sasha lighting up the ballroom this season—Pretty Little Liars star Sasha Pieterse! Could she be the next big thing? Only time will tell.
