- 2:04Rylee Arnold Tried ‘So Hard’ to Get Sister Lindsay Arnold to Return to ‘DWTS’Us WeeklyRylee Arnold wants nothing more than her older sister Lindsay Arnold to make her triumphant Dancing With the Stars return. “I think there is probably a future with Dancing With the Stars and Lindsay,” Rylee, 19, told Us Weekly exclusively on Wednesday, September 4, after the show’s season 33 cast was announced. “I think that it will happen one of these days, but it wasn't this year.” Rylee went on to say that she tried “so hard” to convince Lindsay, 30, to come back to the show. “It’s sad, but I think it should happen eventually.” Lindsay announced in August 2023 that she would be taking a step back from DWTS so she can continue being a mother to daughters Sage, 3, and June, 16 months. ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Season 33 Cast: Meet the Contestants and Their Pros “I don’t want to separate our family,” Lindsay, who is married to Sam Cusick, explained in a TikTok video at the time. “I don’t want to put my kids through that right now. I feel like this time of their life is so precious and is moving so fast and I want to cherish every single moment. I don’t want to miss a beat.” Rylee Arnold and Lindsay Arnold ABC Lindsay made her DWTS debut in 2013 during the show’s 16th season. She competed as a pro on 10 seasons of the show, winning the season 15 mirrorball trophy with Jordan Fisher. Fans hoped that following her year-long break, Lindsay would be making her DWTS return this fall. However, she told fans late last month that she wouldn’t be coming back just yet. In her absence, Lindsay has been cheering on Rylee, who made her debut during season 32 last year. For the forthcoming competition, Rylee is partnered with Olympian Stephen Nedoroscik. Every ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Pro Through the Years: Where Are They Now? “He is just so kind, has such a good soul and immediately came into it,” Rylee told Us of her partner on Wednesday. “He was competitive, he wanted to work hard, he wanted to dance and get good at what we were doing. I'm so grateful he's my partner.” Nedoroscik, 25, won two bronze medals during the 2024 Paris Olympics after competing as part of the U.S. men’s gymnastics team. He returned Rylee’s sentiments about their partnership. “I was so excited. She is an amazing dancer,” he shared. “I didn't know who I was gonna get, and I was looking at all the pros. I was like, ‘I really hope I get Rylee.’ So, I was so excited I got Rylee.” Dancing With the Stars season 33 premieres on ABC Tuesday, September 17, at 8 p.m. ET.2 days ago

I met Devin Booker. I saw LeBron James and a few others. Basically, the entire team was there, and they were fresh off winning their gold medal. It was like the same exact night. It was really cool to meet all of them.” After Marks came close to winning a medal with a fourth-place finish at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, she was able to accomplish her dreams by securing gold in women’s surfing at the Paris Olympics in July. The Best Photos From the 2024 Paris Olympics: Gabriel Medina Soaring and More Viral Moments As for Curry and the basketball team, they defeated France and took home gold . “Everyone was very nice,” Marks recalls of the surprise encounter. “Everyone I met was very kind. … A couple of them were like, ‘Oh, where's your gold medal?’ because I wasn't wearing it that night. So I was like, ‘Oh, they must have known maybe I won the gold medal in surfing,’ which was cool.” Although the surfing competition took place in Tahiti, Marks was able to participate in the Olympics Closing Ceremony in Paris. While there, she met more athletes, like rugby player Ilona Maher and artistic swimmer Anita Alvarez.

It was just an incredible experience.” While Marks has big dreams of winning another gold medal in the 2028 Olympics when they are held in Los Angeles, the Southern California resident also hopes to inspire young kids to explore the beauty of surfing. Caroline Marks Courtesy of Roxy Before her athletic dreams came true, Marks was inspired by women like Stephanie Gilmore, Carissa Moore, Lisa Andersen and Layne Beachley. As she continues training for future competitions, the 2023 World Surfing champion wants kids to know they can be in her spot one day too. “I really want to pave the way for the next generation and just show them that there is such a positive future ahead of them,” she explains. “I feel like women's surfing is really moving in such an amazing direction. To have support from brands like Roxy is huge, and they're really big on female empowerment, which is amazing. You really feel that support, and that goes a long way.” The Highs and Lows of the 2024 Summer Olympics — From the Wild Opening Ceremony to a Swim Cap Hero As the summer comes to an end, Marks hopes swimmers will still jump in the water and experience what she describes as her “happy place.” Fans can even dress like Marks thanks to Roxy’s The Pro Surf Collection , which features iconic tropical prints with the highest level of performance. “The material is made of really soft and stretchy material, which is really nice because obviously we're paddling and your paddle into the wave is so important,” Marks tells Us. “Roxy makes the best wetsuits. They're great.”2 days ago
