Hilaria Baldwin is reportedly set to join the cast of Dancing With the Stars for its upcoming 34th season, according to a report from People. The potential casting of the polarizing media personality, who co-stars with her husband Alec Baldwin in the TLC reality series The Baldwins, is already generating discussion.
While ABC has not officially confirmed the lineup, Baldwin has fueled speculation by posting dancing videos to her Instagram and addressing the rumors in an interview with Extra. “There’s been a lot of people manifesting,” she said. “It’s been a lot of fun manifesting, and let’s continue to manifest.”
If confirmed, Baldwin will join a slate of celebrity contestants that has been gradually unveiled. In April, wildlife conservationist Robert Irwin was the first star announced for the new season. Irwin, whose sister Bindi Irwin won Season 21, had previously told Entertainment Tonight in 2022 that he would “definitely give it a go.”
In May, social media influencer Alix Earle was revealed as the second competitor. “I’ve always been a fan of Dancing With the Stars,” Earle told Good Morning America. “I’m ready to challenge myself. I think it’s going to be a lot of fun.”
The cast also includes Jennifer Affleck and Whitney Leavitt from the Hulu reality series The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. The pair confirmed their participation during the show’s reunion special in July.
Season 34 of Dancing With the Stars premieres Tuesday, September 16, at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT on ABC, with episodes streaming simultaneously on Disney+.
