Taylor, thank you for showing up fully and authentically. Thank you for trusting me.

Thank you for reminding me why I love to create and connect!”

Stewart continued, “There are times in your life that you know will impact you in big ways. I truly believe that having @taylorhanson as my partner for @dancingwiththestars Season 35 is and will be one of those times. I’m not even sure I am expressing the right words to sum it all up but all I know is that I’m grateful.”
To conclude her update, she shared, “From my heart, THANK YOU for the love, support and messages over the past few days. I feel it all and it means more than you know.”
Although Hanson and Stewart scored an 18/30 — higher than Sharna Burgess and Tyler Cameron‘s 17/30 and Guillermo Rodriguez and Witney Carson‘s 15/30 — they were eliminated from DWTS on September 29, thanks to viewer voting. They performed a yacht rock foxtrot to “What a Fool Believes” by The Doobie Brothers.
Meanwhile, Hanson also expressed his gratitude to Carson on his own Instagram grid.
“Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who supported me, and the incomparable Britt Stewart on this journey,” he wrote on September 30.
