Bobby Bones isn’t dancing around his feelings.
After former Dancing With the Stars host Tom Bergeron admitting to being shocked by the radio personality’s season 27 win led to him deciding to return his Mirrorball trophy, Bobby revealed the comments dealt a major blow to his mental health and “soured” his feelings about his time on the competition.
“I love talking about it,” he shared on his Bobbycast podcast Nov. 22 while speaking to fellow DWTS winner Kaitlyn Bristowe. “I have such a great relationship with it. Most of my relationship with it is awesome. One of the greatest experiences of my life. It’s been soured by the hardcore fans of the show. I had minor meltdown about a week and a half ago because Tom Bergeron.”
Bobby (real name Bobby Estell) admitted that he “still loves” Tom but was blindsided by his comments, though mostly due to how the subject came up to begin with.
“I was so surprised at his reaction to the question of ‘Who’s one of the most surprising eliminations?’ They didn’t even ask him about me,” Bobby noted. “Had they said the question, ‘Who won that’s surprising?’ I’m all here.”
