Duck Dynasty star Sadie Robertson is the latest celeb to join the new roster for ABC’s season 19 of Dancing With the Stars, a source exclusively confirms to Us Weekly. The 17-year-old model joins previously revealed competitors Janel Parrish, Lolo Jones, and Antonio Sabato Jr.
While speaking to Us Weekly in May, Sadie’s mom Korie Robertson revealed to Us her daughter has always wanted to be on the hit ABC competition show. “I think that our kids are really natural in front of the camera and they have fun with it,” the A&E star said when asked if she thinks her and Willie’s kids will continue with careers in the entertainment industry. “Sadie I think wants to maybe be on a talk show and she wants to be on Dancing with the Stars!” she laughingly added.
The full list of competitors will be revealed live on Good Morning America on Thursday, Sept. 4, less than two weeks before the premiere on Monday, Sept. 15.
Sadie and the others will join already-announced pros Mark Ballas, Cheryl Burke, Valentin Chmerkovskiy, Derek Hough, Tony Dovolani, Peta Murgatroyd, and Karina Smirnoff.
