Hallmark fan-favorite Jesse Metcalfe responded to some unsavory and “highly unprofessional” comments made by Sharna Burgess on the debut of her new podcast called Old-ish. She did not name names, but it was obvious when she stated that her Dancing With The Stars Season 29 partner was “really difficult,” and was not “able to be in the room alone” with the Dawn star.

Through a rep statement to People, his response was very firm.

If she is referring to a time where our client Jesse Metcalfe worked with Ms. Burgess four years ago, the only recollection was that they didn’t get along.

The reps for the 44-year-old actor and musician continued. “Vague insinuations are not only reckless but also irrelevant.” The statement also pointed out how “highly unprofessional” the 38-year-old dancer was, and caused her for making “insinuations just to promote the first episode of her podcast.”

Lastly, the rep advised that Jesse Metcalfe is “not commenting on this. He is taking the high road.” In other words, his fans around the world will not see a social media post discussing this situation, nor will he be interviewed talking about it.
