Sara Evans Recalls Quitting ‘DWTS’ Amid ‘Horrific’ Divorce


Sara Evans detailed the reason she quit ‘Dancing With the Stars’ during ‘horrific’ divorce from Craig Schelske

Country singer Sara Evans is reflecting on her “really horrific” divorce from ex-husband Craig Schelske — which led to her departure from Dancing With the Stars in 2006. Shania Twain learned that firsthand when her husband of 14 years, Robert “Mutt” Lange, had an affair with her former personal assistant, Marie-Anne Thiébaud, in May 2008. “I would be on Dancing with the Stars, and you could see some of the episodes, my eyes were just blood red swollen because I’d been crying the whole day, missing my kids,” Evans recalled, saying that she’s “glad” for the DWTS experience despite it occurring during a “horrific time” in her life.
