Last night's Dancing with the Stars was an emotional one for fans of Anne Heche (ex-Vicky Hudson/Marley Love, Another World). The actress performed a paso doble, which she and her professional partner, Keo Motsepe, danced to the Katy Perry song "Rise." Though the judges praised Heche's courage, they ultimately decided that she had not improved enough to warrant a higher score than 21. She joined Monica Aldama in the bottom two of the elimination round, and the judges ultimately chose to save the cheerleading coach, ending Heche's run.
The Another World alum's most recent Instagram post is a beautiful photo from her final DWTS performance along with the caption, "Stay true to who you are and never stop rising."
Fortunately, two other daytime favorites remain in the competition. Chrishell Stause (ex-Jordan Ridgeway, Days of our Lives; ex-Amanda Dillon, All My Children) and her partner, Gleb Savchenko, danced the foxtrot to Harry Styles's "Adore You." Despite a small stumble, Stause managed to impress the judges with her continued improvement and earned a total of 22 out of 30 points.
Meanwhile, Jesse Metcalfe(ex-Miguel Lopez-Fitzgerald, Passions) and his dance partner, Sharna Burgess, performed a cha-cha to "Smooth" by Santana and Rob Thomas. The judges expressed that they hope to see the actor bring more of his personality to his performances in the future, but they ultimately awarded him 21 out of 30 points and chose to keep him on board for the time being.
