'DWTS': After Alleged Diva Behavior, Nancy Kerrigan Now Threatens to Quit the Show
TV

The former Olympic figure skater reportedly 'is acting like she doesn't want to continue' after having a complete meltdown during rehearsal with pro partner Artem Chigvintsev.

AceShowbiz - Nancy Kerrigan continues to get hit with negative reports as she's competing on "Dancing with the Stars". The former Olympic medalist is said threatening to quit the show as the stress of the competition has taken its toll on her.

"Nancy is absolutely impossible to work with," a source close to production tells Radar Online. "She is whining and has become really argumentative with her partner." The source adds, "The stress of the competition, as well as her public persona, is really getting to her. Nancy is not giving this her all."

The cast and crew think that she won't last long as "she is acting like she doesn't want to continue. No one thinks that she will last very long, because she is acting like she wants to be eliminated now."

In rehearsal footage which aired in this week's episode, Nancy was caught on camera having a meltdown. After her dancing partner Artem Chigvintsev praised her for looking good, she retreated behind a door and said, "He's trying to give me a compliment and I don't like it!" Being closely associated to the incident in which Tonya Harding's ex hired an assailant to whack her knee, she said she'd been "judged my whole life" and found it hard to accept praise.

She later claimed that the meltdown was overblown. "That was like five minutes of the whole week! We're truly having a ton of fun…most of the time, we're just laughing," she said. "Sometimes it's rough and frustrating in practice -- but we were there for like four or five hours."

Prior to that, she was rumored acting like a diva. "Nancy is really starting to make a lot of people angry because she is acting like she already knows what she is doing," a so-called production source told Radar Online. "She is trying to choreograph her own routines and is just being incredibly bossy to the other contestants and to the production crew."

The source added that "Nancy seems just not willing to train as long as everyone else and she is constantly trying to make up excuses for herself. It got so bad that they had to straight up tell her, this is 'Dancing with the Stars', not 'Skating with the Stars'!"
