Sharna Burgess has revealed more details about the alleged issues she faced while partnered with Jesse Metcalfe on “Dancing With the Stars.” “I had a situation with a partner where it got to the point where we couldn’t be alone in a room without people watching,” Burgess told host Cheryl Burke on the “Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans” podcast on Tuesday.While she didn’t specifically mention Metcalfe’s name, it was clear he was the one she was referring to given the timing of the alleged interactions. Burgess explained, “This was [during] COVID and we didn’t have everyone watching all the cameras all the time. We were scaling back on our crew. Some rehearsals weren’t watched or recorded.” The professional dancer and actor were partnered up on Season 29 of the series, which aired during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. She continued, “That was a difficult situation for me. I went through the proper channels and unfortunately I wasn’t able to record everything, but I was able to record some things and I did go to the proper people and there were reports made and I was taken care of.”
