Kaitlyn Bristowe Competed On Dancing With The Stars In 2020

In 2017, Kaitlyn Bristowe spoke out about her desire to be on Dancing With The Stars in the years after her 2015 Bachelorette season. According to Bristowe, she was offered a spot, but Bachelor creator Mike Fleiss allegedly blocked it from happening.

She finally got her wish in 2020 when Chris Harrison surprised her during a video chat by asking if she wanted to be on the next season of DWTS.

The former Bachelorette was one of the contestants on Season 29 of the popular ABC show. She was paired with pro dancer Artem Chigvintsev.

Kaitlyn Bristowe was crowned the winner of the Mirrorball Trophy in the Nov. 2020 season finale. Catfish host Nev Schulman and pro dancer Jenna Johnson finished in second place.

The DWTS champ offered advice to one of the contestants on the new season, but her comments got her in hot water.

Another Bachelor Nation Star Competing On Season 32

Kaitlyn Bristowe wasn’t the first Bachelorette star to win Dancing With The Stars. Hannah Brown won Season 28 the year prior to Bristowe’s win.

Season 25 Bachelor Matt James was on the season after Kaitlyn Bristowe but was sent home early in the competition.

Gabby Windey from Season 19 of The Bachelorette came close to nabbing the Mirrorball Trophy last season but ended up in second place.

The most recent Bachelorette, Charity Lawson, is currently competing on Season 32 of Dancing With The Stars. She’s partnered with Bristowe’s previous partner, Artem Chigvintsev.

Before the season started, Lawson was a guest on Bristowe’s Off The Vine podcast. Kaitlyn Bristowe offered some advice from one Bachelorette to another.

Speaking of Bersten, Bristowe warned that he’s “crazy in the ballroom.” She went on to say, “He’s kind of a d—k.”

At first, Alan Bersten was mostly confused by Bristowe’s comments, noting that they never danced together. However, it now seems that he’s holding a grudge against the Bachelorette star.

Kaitlyn Bristowe was a guest on former DWTS pro Cheryl Burke’s podcast earlier this week. Burke brought up the idea of a possible Bachelor & Bachelorette All-Star season of Dancing With The Stars.

Bristowe was into the idea and said she’d want to dance with Bersten. The problem is, they aren’t currently on speaking terms.

“Alan still won’t talk to me. He walked right past me [at] Dancing With the Stars,” Bristowe said (via Us Weekly.)

Kaitlyn Bristowe was in the audience during a recent episode of DWTS and shared the photos on her Instagram. That’s likely when Bersten ignored her, as she claimed on the podcast.

She also told Burke that she’s tried to make amends. “He won’t call me back, and I have profusely apologized on my podcast.”

Do you think Alan Bersten should forgive Kaitlyn Bristowe for calling him a “d—k”? Share your thoughts in the comments.

Dancing With The Stars airs on Tuesdays at 8 PM Eastern on ABC.
