Going into week 5 of Dancing With The Stars, or the tear-jerking dedication night, comedian Andy Richter appears to be battling illness. At least according to a TikTok from his pro partner, Emma Slater.

Captioned “When Andy is sick and cant’ rehearse today”, Slater is lip syncing a joke reporting Richter sick. She adds “I know when he sees this he will LOL 😂 @AndyRichterTikTok feel better soon partner ☺️” in the description.

The sick day could be another push towards elimination for Richter, who turns 58 later this month. Many would argue, he may have been the least capable dancer in the field, but has survived because of his kindness towards the rest of the cast, and tugging at the heartstrings of the voters during his performance.

Illness and injury is not unusual for Dancing With The Stars. Both Alix Earle and Danielle Fishel have battled injury this season.
