Dancing With the Stars (DWTS) spoilers find that Ukrainian pro dancer, Val Chmerkovskiy has revealed he “probably” won’t return to the dance competition show after being eliminated, along with partner, Olivia Jade this week.
It was on Olivia’s podcast, Conversations with Olivia Jade that Val revealed that season 30 will likely be his last, which he then corroborated on Entertainment Tonight.
“I’ve always been very clear about coming back on the show. I love the show. I love being on it. I am so grateful for the opportunity. Is this my last season?…Probably. Probably. I have no regrets about my tenure on the show. I have no regrets about the season. I couldn’t have asked for a better partner to end it with.”

Val has assured fans that there is no bad blood or “burned bridges” between him and the ABC show. In fact, the two time champ has only gratitude for what the show has done for him, i.e. completely changing his life, and hopes he “served the show” well himself.
The 35 year old joined Dancing With the Stars in season 2 but didn’t become a competition “pro” and dance with a partner until season 13. His first mirror ball trophy was won during season 20, when he was partnered with actress/singer Rumer Willis.
His second win came 3 seasons later when he was paired with Olympic gymnast Laurie Hernandez.
This season, Val was partnered with the most controversial “star”, beauty vlogger and college admissions scandal embroil-ee, Olivia Jade. He has expressed how much he enjoyed performing with Olivia saying they will have a lifelong friendship, quite the turnaround from his preconceived notion that Olivia would be very entitled.
“I’m very proud of her. I’m proud of us. I’m proud of this season,” Val told reporters after the duo were booted. Olivia was highly praised by the judges but their elimination wasn’t entirely surprising as Olivia does not have a huge fan base ready to vote for her.
Val’s wife, Jenna Johnson remains on the show, dancing with Jojo Siwa in the first every same sex couple.
As for Val’s future? He plans to continue dancing with big brother Maks Chmerkovskiy. The brothers co-own the Dance With Me company.
