00:00Well, Miss Whitney, you look like you were absolutely living your dream out there tonight.
00:04When you started dancing on TikTok, did you ever think that it would lead you to a platform as big as Dancing with the Stars?
00:11I mean, come on.
00:12I didn't.
00:13Like, I always had manifested bigger and grander things in the entertainment industry.
00:18So being able to have this, it's a bit surreal.
00:21Like, I grew up watching the show.
00:22I grew up watching Mark.
00:23Like, it's so surreal.
00:25It's like a full circle moment.
00:27Absolutely.
00:27And Mark, it's obviously so good to see you back.
00:30What made you say yes to being a pro again this season?
00:33A couple of things.
00:34I had, when I, you know, retired in 2022, I had some injury stuff that was kind of slowing me down.
00:41And I think I made a bit of an emotional decision to stop at that time.
00:45Since then, I've been, like, really diligent about working on my body.
00:47I had a son with my wife.
00:50My wife and I had a son.
00:51And he's old enough to, like, comprehend what I'm doing.
00:55So, like, a big motivation for me is my son being able to see something, see me do something I've dedicated my life to.
01:01So that was a big motivation for me.
01:04And also, I love the show.
01:05I love my castmates.
01:06I love my partner.
01:08And, you know, I was like, I'm feeling pretty good.
01:10You know, the stuff is clearing up.
01:13And I was like, I might have a couple more in the tank.
01:15So here we are.
01:16And speaking of family, I love how you brought up tonight that you were listening to music with your kids.
01:21And that's how you chose the song.
01:22Talk to us a little bit more about that.
01:24Well, I was, we turned on K-pop Demon Hunters.
01:27And I was just, I don't know, like, specifically the song Golden.
01:31Like, it just really resonated with me.
01:32I was pondering, you know, from the start of Secret Lives, being the bad guy, to where I am today.
01:39And, like, not letting that take over your life.
01:42So, yeah, it really resonated with me.
01:44And then, obviously, having that moment with my kids.
01:46And it's a great song.
