Dancing With the Stars aired the Season 34 finale on Tuesday, November 25th, 2025, and any one of the finalists could have won. They were all so immensely deserving, but only one could take home the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy. So, who reigned supreme when all of the votes were counted at the end of DWTS? Keep reading for more details.
And The Winner Is…
Season 34 of Dancing With the Stars has been filled with so much talent. Elaine Hendrix came in and knocked everyone off their feet. She was hospitalized and missed a week, but still was able to make it through based on rehearsal footage and fan love alone. Andy Richter was so beloved that his heart and weekly improvement helped keep him around far longer than anyone expected. Whitney Leavitt was disliked from the beginning, but made it almost to the finale. However, it was her honesty that may have cost her the Mirrorball.
Now, it is the night of the finale, and it has come down to Elaine and her partner, Alan Bersten, as well as Alix Earle and Val Chmerkovskiy. They are joined by Robert Irwin and Witney Carson, Dylan Efron, and Daniella Karagach. Finally, Jordan Chiles and Ezra Sosa round out the finalists, and all are very deserving of a win. Alix received a lot of hate from the start, much like Whitney. Yet, she was able to make it through, and there was a chance she could go all the way. In the end, fifth place went to Elaine and Alan.
Coming in fourth place on Dancing With the Stars were Dylan and Daniella. Third place went to Jordan and Ezra, and the runner-up was Alix and Val. Finally, the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy was handed to Robert and Witney. They were handed it by last season’s winners, and it was a decade after his sister, Bindi, won.
