Feeling the blues, Stephen Nedoroscik fans? After two months of watching the Olympic medalist set the dance floor on fire at Dancing With The Stars, we had to spend this week without the action. The gymnast and his partner for the show, Rylee Arnold, were placed fourth at the season finale last week, making it a hard pill to swallow for his fans. However, it looks like they aren’t the only ones who are missing seeing Nedoroscik’s blazing dance moves.
Despite speculations of Nedoroscik and Arnold being in a romantic relationship being rife, the Penn State alum’s girlfriend, Tess McCracken, brushed away all the rumors. Instead, she remained unwavering in her support for the dancing duo, cheering for them every week without fail. Understandably, McCracken can’t help but feel the lack of thrill.

In her latest Instagram story from December 3, Stephen’s girlfriend expressed her glum feelings over missing the popular dance show action. “First Tuesday without DWTS,” McCracken’s social media update notes, before elaborating how she’s handling the situation. Sharing the original IG post by the official Dancing With The Stars account, Tess wrote, “No one talk to me.” Evidently, Nedoroscik’s beau shares the same downcast emotions as most of his fans.
In the post by DWTS from the same date, the folks over at the show paid their tributes to Stephen Nedoroscik with glittering eyes. Celebrating the “Pommel Horse King” and his freestyle routine from the final night of the 33rd season, the original post was obviously trying to exclaim how the incredible moves of both Nedorscik and Arnold smote everyone. And Tess didn’t miss the memo, either!
Reflecting McCracken’s feelings, many fans hovered over the comment section of DWTS’s post to reiterate how it’d be incredibly difficult to get over the routine and how Nedoroscik nailed everything perfectly. However, it wasn’t only the fans who thought that Stephen and Rylee’s last freestyle performance was a spectacle to behold.
McCracken isn’t the only one who loved watching Nedroscik’s dancing prowess
Dancing to Coldplay’s Viva La Vida!, Stephen Nedoroscik and Rylee Arnold received full scores from the judges for their last dance routine at the show. And yet, they failed to make it to the top three, making many of the ex-Nittany Lion gymnast’s fans raise their eyebrows about the final results in general. In another IG story, McCracken also noted how voting for the gymnast and his partner was a tedious thing to do and hos constantly faced trouble doing so. But for Arnold, the emotions were overwhelming even before she set foot on the floor for the last time with the men’s gymnastics sensation.

In a video uploaded on her social media from the backstage, Arnold was seen teary about reaching the end of the road. With Stephen trying his best to console his partner, Arnold managed to suck up her feelings and give the fans a final performance to remember. But Nedoroscik’s infectious positivity was hard to dampen even after the results were revealed. “At least it wasn’t another bronze,” joked the gymnast in his X bio, highlighting how he wasn’t saddened by the outcome.
But Nedoroscik himself was rather taken aback by how much he had to toil at the show. “Combining gymnastics and dance takes an absurd amount of energy,” he said before the final performance. On the other hand, his stint at the show stole the judges’ hearts as well. “From day one, you lit up the ballroom with your infectious joy and charm,” acknowledged Derek Hough, one of the judges for the 33rd season of DWTS.
