Danica McKellar's dancing career is in jeopardy as she reportedly confirmed about her broken rib on Friday.
The "Dancing with the Stars" participant seems to be heavily rehearsing that she really had a rib broken. The news of the actress' injury was confirmed by her when she posted a statement in her Twitter account. Danica McKellar has been busy preparing for the next week's dance competition with her professional dance partner Valentin Chmerkovskiy.
Danica together with her dance partner were previously performing well in the said dance competition as they garnered high scores from the judges. The pair previously scored 39 out 40 which is nearly perfect when they performed a Beauty and the Beast themed dance during the "Disney Night". Their stunning performance has been actually praised by the judges.
As Danica McKellar's dancing skills continue to develop this season, many have also noticed the notable progress she's making. Judge Carrie Ann recently said that Danica is a blossoming talent when they performed 'cha-cha-cha' on last Monday night's "Party Anthem". Danica and Valentin scored 36 out of 40 from the judges for their dance.
Moreover, as the competition gets tough, 'The Wonder Years' star is now facing another huge challenge as she broke her ribs. Danica McKellar admitted on Friday that she got injured while rehearsing for next week's performance wherein the Livin' La Vida Loca singer, Ricky Martin will join the judges as a guest judge. According to her Twitter post, McKellar admitted that she had a rib broken while rehearsing and she even asked for prayers from their supporters with a hash tag of "want to keep dancing".
"So...I broke a rib in yesterday's #DWTS rehearsal. Trying my best to pull thru and could use your prayers!! #wanttokeepdancing"-Mckellar's tweet in her Twitter account.
In response to McKellar's tweet about her injury, her dancing pro partner Valentin also took to Twitter about the incident. Though not mentioning about the rib injury, Valentin simply wrote:
"Very very tough week #very."
The actress' injury will surely be a big factor for her performance this Monday and it is actually starting to raise questions whether she will be forced to leave the ballroom. Danica McKellar's broken rib injury is not the first to happen in the DWTS season 18 since a previous competitor Billy Dee Williams was also forced to leave the competition after being prohibited by his doctors to dance due to a back problem.
DWTS' Monday episode next week will be much awaited as viewers want to know if Danica McKellar will be able to perform and pull things through or if she will voluntarily exit the dance show.
