Witney shared her appreciation for the letter and bouquet of roses Robert sent her, writing in the Story post, “In case you need another reason to love Robert Irwin.”
And emotions were certainly running high, with Witney and Robert—who suffered a rib injury during their final week of rehearsals—also posting an emotional video about their journey coming to an end.
“Witney, this is it,” Robert said to his dance partner in a video on his Instagram Story. “I’m not ready for it to be over, I can’t believe this is it.”
He continued to say to the ballroom dancer, “Thank you so much for the greatest experience of my whole life, it has been amazing.”
Witney returned the sentiment, chiming in, “Thank you for everything, this has been so special, so memorable.”
The pair soaked up their last moments together before taking the stage for the last time.
“It feels so weird, here we are and we’re about to do the final dress rehearsal,” Robert shared. “Love you guys, we’ll see you soon.”
