He didn’t go into many details, but it’s apparent it was dental-related. It could be a chipped tooth or any number of things. Now, fans just hope that Sasha has time to rest and recover ahead of next Monday night’s episode.

The dancer seems to be doing well amid his divorce

Although Sasha Farber and Emma Slater got engaged on DWTS, it seems like their love story has come to an end. They announced their split public in August. But even so, it seems like these two exes are staying on great terms. Sasha, Emma, and Selma Blair were all spotted in public together in Los Angeles. Their marriage may not have worked out, but fans are just happy they seem to be happy and have a friendship.

With any luck, Sasha Farber will be back in the ballroom when Dancing With The Stars returns to Disney+ this Monday night. Week 2 will be Elvis Night and it’s definitely going to be an exciting episode!
