Charlie White Is 'Grateful' For 'DWTS' After Elimination

Charlie White and Sharna Burgess stop by Good Morning America in New York City on Tuesday morning (May 13).

The 26-year-old athlete and his 27-year-old pro partner were shockingly voted off of Dancing With The Stars just the night before.

“I definitely think the fact we were able to make some really special dances makes it a little bit easier,” Charlie shared on the program.

He added, “We’re disappointed because we were so close to the final, and to be able to have one last competitive dance with each other would have been special, but just the journey itself, we’re just grateful for all the opportunities and the friendship that we now have with the big ‘Dancing With the Stars’ family.”

Be sure to check out all the pictures from his finals dances below and stay tuned to watch all of Charlie‘s dances again on JJJ!
