The journey toward the Mirrorball trophy is already over for a new “Dancing with the Stars” pro, but he’s embracing the positives he experienced with his first run. Ezra Sosa and Anna Delvey were eliminated during the second week of season 33. After the elimination, Sosa took to his Instagram page to share some sweet thoughts about his experience.
In a September 27 Instagram Story, Sosa shared a short video clip of Delvey and wrote, “I’m already missing this diva already.”
Ezra Sosa Praised Anna Delvey for Her Determination
Sosa shared his thoughts in a September 25 Instagram post. He acknowledged Delvey as a “controversial” partner but still gushed over her.
“I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to my partner, Anna Delvey,” he wrote.
He continued, “Yes, she’s been controversial, but working with her gave me the chance to see a different side– one filled with her hard work, determination, and resilience.”
Sosa also addressed Delvey directly. “I want to thank you for dancing with me and for opening up. You allowed me to see a side of you that not many have, and I’m grateful for that.”
The dancer added, “I truly hope that one day, America gets to meet that side of you too. They will love her just as much as I do.”
“Wishing you the best and can’t wait to hangout and make TikTok’s soon,” Sosa shared.
Sosa also noted his first season as a pro on “Dancing with the Stars” couldn’t have been “a more memorable experience.” He thanked his “amazing DWTS family” for “trusting me and giving me this unforgettable opportunity.”
He also said he hoped he made his DWTS family proud. “Though my time on the show has come to an end, this isn’t goodbye. It’s just the beginning of the next chapter,” Sosa wrote.
