Previous season's champion Bindi Irwin's brother has been eyed by the producers to join "Dancing with the Stars" Season 22. However, he's still too young to be qualified. Unfortunately, Bindi's partner Derek Hough hints on leaving the show while judge Len Goodman returns in the judging table.
"Dancing with the Stars" Season 21 hailed Bindi Irwin along with her partner Derek Hough as the champion. With that being said, Bindi's younger brother, Robert Irwin is being considered to compete for the upcoming season of the ABC dance contest series. Their mother Terri Irwin revealed that her son is being eyed by the executive producers, Celebrity Dirty Laundry reports. However, it has also been mentioned that Robert is still too young to participate since he's only 12 years old.
Speaking of Derek Hough, the 30-year-old professional dancer and choreographer of "DWTS" has hinted that he is going to leave the show. When asked if he would be returning in the upcoming season, Hough responded to E! Online "I don't know, who knows? I have to say this isn't a bad way to go out."
On the contrary, Len Goodman is slated to return in the 22nd season of "Dancing with the Stars". According to TV Line, the veteran judge officially comes back to the show after sitting it out in the previous season. Goodman himself announced the news on his Twitter account. The reason for his temporary exit was the birth of his new grandson and an existing contract to a U.K. show "Strictly Come Dancing".
In the meantime, "Dancing with the Stars: Live! Dance All Night Tour" begins on December 15 up to February 14, 2016 visiting 43 cities across the country. "Dancing with the Stars" Season 22 is set to premiere on Monday, March 21, 2016 at 8:00 p.m. with a 2-hour premiere special exclusively on ABC.
