Ally Brooke Shares Update on James Van Der Beek After His Shocking 'DWTS' Elimination

Ally Brooke is giving fans an update on James Van Der Beek after he was shockingly eliminated from Dancing With the Stars during the semi-finals episode.

James and Ally were in the bottom two and all three judges voted to save her, but then she tried to give up her spot, though was denied by producers. That evening, James revealed the emotional news that he and his wife lost the baby they were expecting just days earlier.

“[We’re] texting back and forth,” she told Us Weekly. “He’s just the sweetest. He’s such an encourager and an amazing human being. He’s just a remarkable man.”

“James was so wonderful. He’s like, ‘Girl, you shine and go enjoy this and go shine,’” she added. “So I took that with me, but, you know, I did work so hard to get here, and it’s not been easy and I’m very, very thankful to be in the finale. I hoped I would be and the fact that I’m in the finale is unbelievable!”
