Ahead of her American Smooth, the comedian tearfully shared that the dance would be dedicated to her late sister, who she used to dance with when they were both younger. Speaking to her partner Karen Hauer in a heartbreaking VT, Jayde shared she had wanted to be in a same-sex partnership so that she was able to do lifts, fearing the male pros wouldn't be able to lift her.
