DWTS Producer Shares Casting Update After Maura Higgins, Ciara Miller Join Season 35
Maura Higgins will always be faithful to her friends.
A month after the Traitors alum was announced as one of the first celebrity cast members for season 35 of Dancing With the Stars, Maura shared her thoughts on potential pro partners, revealing why Gleb Savchenko is the one dancer she really hopes won’t be spinning her across the ballroom this fall.
“I’d be happy with anyone except Gleb,” she told E! News in an exclusive interview about her new Wingstop partnership. “That’s only because I’m loyal and I’m friends with Brooks [Nader].”
After pledging her allegiance to Gleb’s ex, Maura noted, “I don’t really like the way he speaks about women.”
“I don’t really want to spend all my time with someone like that,” she added. “I’m like, no thank you.”
As for her “dream” DWTS partner, the Love Island alum does have someone in mind: three-time Mirrorball champion Mark Ballas, who was her costar on Traitors season four.
“I even get nervous of saying it because I see all these videos and they’re like, ‘Mark! Mark!'” Maura joked. “My accent is crazy but I do want Mark.”
