Val Chmerkovskiy & Jenna Johnson exit the tour

Val and Jenna aren’t saying goodbye to Dancing With The Stars. Just the tour for now.

Although Val Chmerkovskiy and his wife Jenna Johnson were delighted to join the tour this year, they never intended to stay for the entire run. They joined the tour for a limited engagement so Val could perform with the Season 32 champion, Xochitl Gomez. Now, all three of them are parting ways with the tour and returning to other projects.

Val took to social media to thank his fans for making his run on tour so special.

“This exchange brought me so much joy. All the fans that have showed up and waited outside after the shows, not just here in Detroit,” Val began his post. “All of you guys that I’ve exchanged hugs and as much conversation as I could, hearing your stories… I just cannot put into words how grateful I am. It’s something I’ve felt in the past, I’ve lost touch with, and have been abundantly reminded of this tour.”

“Even though my time on this tour is coming to an end, I just cannot thank everyone enough,” Val continued. “The support this season, seeing the support on the road, one of the biggest reasons why I came back on tour is the chance to say thank you to all of you in person. To hug and thank in person for a season I’ll never forget. And for a moment in time that feels so special to me. I love you. Truly! I love and thank you sincerely.”
