Dancing With the Stars' Whitney Leavitt Responds to Jen Affleck’s “Wild” Allegation About Her

"I thought I was getting eliminated every Tuesday. Every single Tuesday, I was mentally preparing myself," she explained. "So, in that moment, I felt two emotions—it was one where it was like, 'Oh my god, they didn't call my name, but oh my god, now my friend's going home.'"

And while Whitney said she doesn't remember smiling at all, she noted, "If anything, it was relief like, 'Oh, they didn't call my name. I get to do this one more week.'" 

Although the 32-year-old said she wasn't rejoicing over Jen's exit, she did admit there has been behind-the-scenes tension with her fellow MomToker. In fact, Whitney confessed "it sucked" to see Jen say she wouldn't be rooting for Whitney to win.

"Jen understands what it's like being in the public eye, being in the reality space, getting the hate. She's experienced it," Whitney shared. "It didn't feel great that she fed into that, that she decided to go on a live and say, 'Yeah, I'm not going to vote for her.' I mean, she could have just said who she was voting for."

As for the reason they were feuding in the first place? Whitney alluded that more will come to light during season four of Secret Lives, which was filmed at the same time as their experience on Dancing With the Stars.

"There was a lot that happened while we were doing Dancing With the Stars," she said. "I just think feelings were hurt and on both sides and there wasn't a mutual understanding."

And the pair still haven't mended fences, with Whitney noting, "The relationship's not great. I don't really even know if there is one right now."

For her part, Jen has revealed how some of her issues with Whitney began.

"It’s frustrating for me because since the day I met her, I told her I wanted to go on Dancing With the Stars—that is literally one of my dreams," Jen said on the third season of their Hulu series. "The minute she sees there’s an opportunity, she’s like, ‘Oh wait, I’ve always wanted it.'"

And, as she told E! News earlier this month, they ended up butting heads while both competing on DWTS. 

“Because being on Dancing With the Stars was a dream of both of ours, we—at least for me—just wanted to make that experience only positive and leave the drama for our other show,” Jen told E!. “Unfortunately, there [were] moments where it was hard [for it to not] bleed into Dancing With the Stars.”
