Heather Morris Reacts to Shocking ‘DWTS’ Elimination After Getting Perfect Score

Heather Morris and her partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy were eliminated from Dancing with the Stars on Monday (April 24) in a shocking twist after getting the season’s first perfect score.

“I felt sad – I felt that there was an opportunity for ‘Maks and Heather’ to develop and build every single week and we got that cut short,” Maks told People. “I just feel bad it took so long for me to get back, even though this was the fastest I could possibly do. I wish I had been here for those other weeks. Even if it was meant to be that heather got eliminated this week, I still wanted to enjoy the jive and tango and Disney week that I missed. So it’s just sad.”

“It’s great that everyone was behind me,” Heather added about the judges being shocked that she was sent home.

Heather also appeared on Good Morning America on Tuesday (April 25), and spoke about the elimination. Watch below…
