Emma Slater Injured, Out of Dancing Season

Dancing With the Stars pro Emma Slater has been sidelined due to an ankle injury sustained during a rehearsal for the show's Dedication Night. The injury occurred when she landed awkwardly after a lift trick, which was filmed for social media, and resulted in her hospitalization. Slater shared updates on Instagram, assuring fans she is recovering and expressing gratitude for the support she received. Recently eliminated from the competition alongside her partner Reginald VelJohnson, she humorously noted her plans to join him on the couch instead of dancing.
