Meanwhile, Murgatroyd has shared posts on Instagram of what life is like after giving birth and the struggles of getting back in shape. “Being an athlete I pride myself on having a lean, strong physique, so believe me this has been a challenge to work through, but as long as you have a loving support network around you, you will be fine,” the dancer wrote about her post-baby body.
Despite her love of dance along with her husband’s, the new parents are going to do their best to keep their son away from the ballroom floor. “I hope never,” Chmerkovskiy said when asked if Shai would ever get into dancing. His statement was echoed by Murgatroyd, who stated that she would be happy if her son didn’t take an interest in the activity.
