Report: Dancing with the Stars' pro dancers feel they are more restricted than their celebrity counterparts

People

"The pros who are married and/or dating can't live together," a source tells People in wake of Cody Rigsby and Cheryl Burke's positive COVID tests. "The pros feel like they're more restricted than the celebs participating – they're technically not allowed to see their (romantic) partners except on show day. The reasoning from the show is that if one pair goes down, they don't want to take down any other pairs – but then they're all packed together on show days without masks in the same ballroom and mix and mingle." A Dancing with the Stars rep responds: "Both pros and stars are following the same guidelines — the rules apply for everyone."
