Amber Glenn, the figure skater from Plano, has been confirmed as a contestant for Season 35 of ABC's Dancing with the Stars. The announcement was made on Good Morning America, with Glenn later acknowledging the news through a social media post. She will be paired with professional dancer Pasha Pashkov for the competition.
The new season is scheduled to begin with a two-night premiere on September 15 and 16. Episodes will air on ABC and Disney+, with streaming availability on Hulu starting the following day. Pashkov expressed enthusiasm about working with Glenn, describing her as a focused and hard-working partner in a shared social media update.
Glenn’s participation follows a significant year in competitive skating. In January, she secured her third consecutive national title, which earned her a spot on the Olympic team. At the Winter Olympics, she contributed to Team USA’s gold medal victory in the team event. Her individual results included a fifth-place finish in the singles competition and a sixth-place result at the World Championships in March.
Earlier in the year, Glenn was honored in her hometown of Plano. A public reception was held in her presence, during which Mayor John Muns presented a proclamation recognizing her achievements.
