The latest "Dancing With the Stars" season 22 spoilers suggest that "Orange is the New Black" star Taryn Manning will be joining the cast of the hit ABC reality dance competition, alongside Ben Higgins and Kaitlyn Bristowe.
In January, Manning tweeted "#DWTS" which caused many fans to speculate that she actually signed up to be part of the cast.
Several stars, including Ben Higgins and Kaitlyn Bristowe from "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette" franchise, respectively were also reportedly being considered to join "Dancing with the Stars" season 22.
The final episode of "The Bachelor" airs March 9, while the premiere of "DWTS" is slated on March 21. This may just be a good move for Higgins, following Chris Soules footsteps. He previously stated that he would is "open to anything" after filming "The Bachelor" 2016.
While this will be good for him, career wise, Soules had been plagued with infidelity rumors after he joined "Dancing with the Stars." His relationship with ex-fiancé Whitney Bischoff has been constantly questioned, given his onscreen chemistry with dance partner Witney Carson.
Soules and Bischoff's relationship quickly ended after several months. Some speculated that Prince Farming's hectic schedule had to do with it. They held that he should have put off joining "DWTS" and concentrate first on their relationship.
In other news, an insider told Us Weekly that Jodie Sweetin has already signed up for "Dancing With the Stars" season 22. This does not come as surprise given her dancing background. Although the "Fuller House" star has yet to confirm or deny these rumors, the actress shared that she is a huge fan of the show.
Speaking to NJ.com back in 2013, Sweetin shared that she started dancing when she was just three years old.
"I don't know if you called what I did great dancing, but it was fun. The girls I danced with in [Full House] were girls I actually trained with in the studio. So I danced outside the show and they sort of incorporated that as part of the character for Stephanie," she recounted.
Other celebrities who are rumored to be part of "Dancing With the Stars" season 22 are NFL's Mike Tolbert, Dominique Moceanu and Robert Irwin.
"DWTS" season 22 airs Monday, March 21 on ABC.
