Harry Jowsey, 26, and Rylee Arnold, 18, enjoyed their time as a dancing duo on Dancing With the Stars before being eliminated from the competition on Tuesday, November 21, during the show’s Taylor Swift night.
"It’s a bittersweet feeling. We’ve come so far, and with just two weeks left, I’m thinking, ‘Come on, Harry,’” Jowsey expressed. “Living out someone’s dream with them is incredibly fulfilling. This has been Rylee’s biggest dream since she was a little girl, and to be part of making it come true is amazing.”
He added, “Being a small part of this incredible story has been the most meaningful part for me. It’s been an incredible experience.”
Arnold expressed, "I am thrilled with how everything went and feel extremely grateful to have been paired with Harry... I am just so proud of him. The entire experience was truly enjoyable." She added that while it's "tough" to say goodbye, "I am thankful for everything that has transpired this season."
Jowsey commended his own dedication, stating, "I am most proud of immersing myself in such a daunting situation and taking a leap into the unknown."

“I’m incredibly proud of [Rylee],” he continued, jokingly adding, “She manages to boss around this tall sausage and put up with me when I’m hangry.”
Despite often being at the bottom of the leaderboard, he pointed out that Arnold always maintained a positive attitude: “She always lifts my spirits and handles any challenges with maturity. She’s truly exceptional.”
Result:
This week, they received a score of 30 out of 40 for their Rumba performance to Swift’s “August.” Unfortunately, they were defeated in a relay jive to “Shake It Off” by Alyson Hannigan and pro Sasha Farber.
Fans were quick to notice the undeniable chemistry between Jowsey and Arnold when season 32 premiered in September. Their offstage antics, including quirky TikToks and public displays of affection, sparked rumors about their relationship.
