Ryan Lochte Wants to 'Move Forward' with ‘Dancing with the Stars’ —See Full Lineup for Season 23!

It is officially confirmed… Ryan Lochte has joined the cast for the 23rd season of “Dancing with the Stars”!

Lochte will be paired with dancer Cheryl Burke, who is returning to the show after a long break. The full lineup was announced on “Good Morning America,” which also interviewed Ryan earlier this morning about his Rio robbery scandal. He said, "I think it's everyone blowing this way out of proportion. I think that's what happened. I mean, it's been dragged out way too long. The media has taken this to a whole new level, and I just want to put this behind me and move on and move forward. I think the rest of the world wants this, too. There's other, bigger, issues that this world is facing."

Though he admitted to making a “very big mistake,” he went on to say, "I'm never one to dwell on the past. Everyone has got to be sick and tired about hearing about this. I just want to move forward.” Watch!

Ryan isn't the only Olympian in the competition… Laurie Hernandez is also taking part, pairing up with Val Chmerkovskiy. She gushed, "I'm so excited! I can't wait to do the jive. Val is a mastermind and it's so nice because he seems really patient and like me, open to new things.”

The cast announcement came just days after it was confirmed that Derek and Julianne Hough were returning to the competition.
