Duck Dynasty alum Sadie Robertson is ready to lace up her ballroom shoes should Dancing With the Stars move forward with another all-stars season.
“I would go back anytime they asked. I love it,” Robertson, 29, exclusively told Us while promoting her new memoir, It’s Not Personal: Coming Face-to-Face With Who You Really Are. “I love watching it. [My daughter] Honey was watching it with me last [week], … and she was like, ‘Do you think they’re gonna get 9s this time?’ She loves to judge them; she loves to guess what they’re gonna get.”
Robertson and pro partner Mark Ballas finished in second place on DWTS season 19 in 2014 when she was a teenager. (DWTS has not officially greenlit a second all-stars season, the first of which debuted in 2012.)
“It would be so fun to do it now in my life where I’m a mom and just in a totally different stage than as a 17-year-old kid,” Robertson, who shares three daughters with husband Christian Huff, told Us. “I would love to do that journey again in a better state of my life.”
Until then, Robertson and her family are “obviously” cheering on Ballas, 40, and partner Maura Higgins on season 35. The author and Huff, 28, even returned to the ballroom for Halloween Night last month.
“I love every time I get to go back to the ballroom. It is truly a family,” she gushed of her recent visit to the set. “They say that and they mean that. It’s been 13 years since I’ve been on the show, and I’m still very close to all of them. Alfonso [Ribeiro, the host] and [his wife] Angela are friends for life. [I] love them so much.”
Robertson also noted that she has remained “good friends” with Ballas and his wife, BC Jean.
“We love them so much. I’m so grateful that we’ve stayed connected,” Robertson said. “We’re trying to get them to come to Louisiana to just chill after the season, so we just adore them, such great people. [Casting director] Deena Katz does an incredible job of inviting everybody back into the ballroom, and I’m grateful that she’s extended such love to me over the years.”
In addition to keeping up with the ballroom, Robertson is focused on her next career step in her It’s Not Personal book.
“I’ve, obviously, lived my life really vocal about my faith, and I feel like everyone has that invitation to know their Creator,” she told Us of her intentions in writing her book. “And so, I wanted them to know it is personal, and that’s actually a really beautiful thing. That’s the whole point, that you were created with intention and design, and you’re known and loved. My hope for that is, as people know that, their shame would fall off, their insecurities would fall off, their anxieties would fall off. It’s an invitation to take faith personally.”
It’s Not Personal: Coming Face-to-Face With Who You Really Are is out now.
