Returning to Dancing With the Stars

Publish date: 2024-07-19

Melissa Gilbert returned to the studio for her first Dancing with the Stars rehearsal since Monday night’s performance episode left her hospitalized.

“Nobody puts Halfpint in the corner!” Maksim Chmerkovskiy’s partner Tweeted, using her character’s nickname from Little House on the Prairie.

Gilbert, 47, had to be helped down the ballroom stairs by fellow competitor Gavin DeGraw after injuring herself during a paso doble Monday:

After missing Tuesday’s result show, in which viewers gave her at least another week to dance after eliminating Sherri Shepherd, Gilbert Tweeted:

“Going to attempt a gentle rehearsal in a bit.”

Thursday, she said she was “very happy” to be back dancing with Chmerkovkiy before signing off for the night: “Now back home to bed.”

Looks like she’s good to go, despite the whiplash and concussion she suffered. How do you think Melissa will do in her return Monday night?

And who will win Dancing With the Stars’ 14th season?
