'Dancing With The Stars': Is Carrie Ann rude to Kaitlyn because Artem is her ex? Fans want 'salty' judge to go

'Dancing With The Stars' is getting tough with every passing week and the cast members are feeling the pressure. The judges have been vocal about their expectations while being straight forward about things where the dancers could improve. One person who had been feeling the pressure is Kaitlyn Bristowe and her partner Artem Chigvintsev.
Kaitlyn started off the season with some high scores. However, with time, things changed as she struggled to maintain the same performance. In the latest episode (November 2), Kaitlyn tried her best to bring back the same energy as she once did.
While she managed to do so to some extent, the judges thought there were some things she could work on. Carrie Ann Inaba was particular about the things where Kaitlyn went wrong. There came a moment where Artem stood up for Kaitlyn and justified their dance move. Unfortunately, it did not seem to shake Carrie Ann much.

The overall giddy demeanor Carrie Ann has for literally ANYONE else over Kaitlynn and Artem is really noticeable and I would feel so uncomfortable and targeted if I were them. 🤷🏻♀️ #DWTS
