Sherri Shepherd Dances the Rumba for Her Son
Sherri Shephard takes things to deeply personal place as she uses her son, Jeffery, who was born premature with several health issues, as her inspiration for her personal challenge. To honor her son, who is now hapy and healthy, Sherri’s partner, Val Chmerkovskiy, crafts a Rumba for her. And though Sherri struggles in rehearsal, she channels all of her emotions into a powerful Rumba that the judges find “deeply felt” and “moving.” After a crying Sherri was coaxed off the floor, the judges gave her 8s all around for a score of 24.
