Julianne Hough Exits ‘Dancing with the Stars’ Judging Panel
It has just been announced that Julianne Hough will not be returning as a judge on the next season of “Dancing with the Stars.”
Len Goodman will be coming back after taking a break last season.
Hough told People, "I will miss being on the panel for season 22, but have a lot of exciting stuff coming that I look forward to sharing. The pro dancers, producers and crew at DWTS will always be my family.”
She added, "I promise it's not the last you'll see of me in the ballroom."
The show's producer Rob Wade shared, “Julianne will always be a part of the 'Dancing with the Stars' family, and we hope to see her back in the ballroom in the future.”
Julianne was a judge for three seasons — 19, 20, and 21. She also took home the mirror ball trophy twice, with Apolo Anton Ohno and Hélio Castroneves.
