Ben Higgins has seemingly been offered to compete in the upcoming season of "Dancing with the Stars". In an interview with E! News at the "Women Tell All" special, the star of "The Bachelor" says of joining "DWTS", "I'm not against any opportunity that presents itself."
Ben explains further, "I need to analyze if that option was there to say, OK, is this the best thing for me? I don't know yet, I don't. I don't want to say this is the way I'm going to go with it because I haven't decided."
Ben's statement seemingly confirms that he has been offered a spot in the ballroom of "DWTS".
ABC hasn't commented on casting rumors, so fans will need to wait until March 8 when the cast is officially announced on "Good Morning America". "DWTS" premieres Monday, March 21 on ABC.
So far, the only official cast member of "DWTS" season 22 is "Fuller House" star Jodie Sweetin, who will be dancing with Keo Motsepe. Rumor has it, Mischa Barton, "America's Next Top Model" winner Nyle DiMarco and "Good Morning America" Ginger Zee will also be part of the cast.
Pro dancer Derek Hough will not return for the 22nd season to focus on his upcoming Broadway show "Singin' in the Rain". His sister Julianne Hough also will not return as a judge, but Len Goodman, who was sitting out last season, will be back on the panel with Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli.
