Tom Bergeron To Return To ‘Dancing With The Stars’ For First Time Since 2020 Exit

Tom Bergeron will return to Dancing With The Stars for its 20th anniversary episode on November 11th. The longtime host last appeared in 2020, when he and co-host Erin Andrews left the show. Bergeron hosted nearly 450 episodes since its 2005 debut. In 2023, Bergeron told Cheryl Burke’s podcast he had opposed casting political figures and felt betrayed when Sean Spicer joined the show. He said, “At that moment, I knew, this was probably my last season.” After his exit, Tyra Banks hosted Seasons 29 through 31, followed by Julianne Hough and Alfonso Ribeiro from Season 32 onward. The current season continues to break audience and voting records, with 6.7 million viewers tuning in for Halloween week. (Story URL)
