Dancing With the Stars pro Witney Carson took a break from season 29 of the reality show while pregnant with her beautiful baby boy Leo.
Now, the dancer is four months post-partum, and has revealed how her recovery from the pregnancy and intense labor has affected her mental health. “I had a much different recovery than I imagined,” she told HollywoodLife during an exclusive interview, explaining why she’s been so open about her changing body. “I kind of just wanted to be real and just be like, ‘Hey, this is happening to me’ and it’s taking me a lot longer than I thought.
I thought I would bounce back right away. I thought that I would get my body back in a week because I’m so athletic and in shape and it just wasn’t the case.” Witney
