Barely a month after making her debut on Dancing With the Stars, Selma Blair had bad news. "The results came back," the actress who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2018 - tearfully told pro partner Sasha Farber following a fresh round of MRIS, and "my body is definitely taking a hit." She explained that participating on the show had led to "intensive bone trauma and inflammation among rips and tears." If Selma continued, there could be "extensive damage."

So on Oct. 17, five weeks into the competition, Selma took her final bow. "I really want to have one last beautiful dance," she declared, calling it "a dance for everyone that has tried and hoped they could do more," while also accepting there's "power in realizing it's time to walk away."
