Adam Rippon Says It's Hard Not Having Mirai Nagasu In The DWTS Finals With Him

Adam Rippon made it to the Dancing With The Stars: Athletes finals – but BFF Mirai Nagasu didn’t, and he’s definitely sad about it.

The 28-year-old figure skater spoke with Access Hollywood after the show earlier this week about Mirai and her partner, Alan Bersten, being eliminated from the competition.

“When we heard our name, the first thing I thought was ‘come on, Mirai,’” Adam revealed.

“He screamed for a second and then he stopped,” Jenna Johnson chimed in. “I was like ‘are you okay?’ and he was still saying her name. I could tell he was really thinking about it.”

Adam continues, “I am hurting for her so much right now. I wouldn’t be able to make it to this point if it wasn’t for her and everything that we went through – all of the traveling and all of the touring. She’s such a good friend of mine…it’s really hard.”
