When Selma Blair revealed that she would be leaving the series, Cuoco’s boyfriend, Tom Pelphrey, taped her reaction on Instagram Post, and the actress was shown crying after hearing the news.

Cuoco, who is 36 years old and pregnant at the interview, suggested that the pregnancy may have been a contributing factor to her emotions, in addition to the general traumatic yet liberating nature of Blair’s choice to quit the show. I can’t believe I’m pregnant and on Dancing with the Stars, Cuoco wrote in the video’s description, noting, “I [love] you, @selmablair.”

A teary-eyed Kaley Cuoco can be seen watching the program on her laptop. After finishing her final dance, the judges awarded Blair a score of 100 percent, which is considered to be the highest possible score. According to Cuoco, Selma was only given four 10s.

Cuoco expresses her admiration for Blair, noting that the Cruel Intentions actress is one of her favorites. But, then, Cuoco cries out, “I can’t take it; I adore her,” before bursting into further sobs.

On the show that aired on Monday night, Blair revealed that she would not be participating in the contest owing to problems from her multiple sclerosis. Nevertheless, Blair and her professional dance partner Sasha Farber did one more dance to the song What the World Needs Now.

Blair was seen in a pre-recorded clip explaining to Farber that she would have to quit Dancing With the Stars. Blair added, “You know that I’ve been monitored and that I’ve been in contact with my doctors during this entire process.” I went through the process of getting these MRIs, and when the findings came back, it was clear that I could not. I can’t. I’m sorry, but I have to drop out of the race. I exerted myself to the fullest extent of my capabilities.

She went on to say that having a chronic condition comes with its own unique challenges and that my physical health is undoubtedly deteriorating as a consequence. It’s much above what my bones can do without suffering damage. In addition to rips and tears, there is significant bone stress and inflammation; therefore, I could cause considerable damage, which is something I do not wish to do.
