In a recent announcement, DWTS pro Rylee Arnold, 20, has revealed that she will not be participating in the 2025 DWTS tour. Arnold, who has been a pro on the show for the past two years, shared that she is making the "hard decision" to sit out the upcoming tour in order to focus on her health, particularly the management of her Type 1 diabetes.
Arnold was diagnosed with diabetes when she was just 15 years old, nearly four years before she was cast as a DWTS pro. She has described those initial days after her diagnosis as "the hardest three days" of her life, as she grappled with the reality of how much the condition would change her life, including her ability to continue dancing.
Now, as she prepares to miss the 2025 DWTS tour, Arnold explains that managing her diabetes can be "tricky on the road," prompting her to prioritize her health over the tour. Despite her disappointment, she is determined to cheer on her fellow pros and looks forward to attending the shows as a spectator.
