Get out the tissues for Dancing With the Stars’ Dedication Week, because Dylan Efron’s younger sister, Olivia Efron, has already won over the hearts of the cast and fans.
“Please welcome the newest member of Team DaDy, my lil sister Olivia,” Dylan, Zac Efron’s little brother, captioned his Sunday, October 12, Instagram post. “She’s quickly become 2nd best dancer on the team and by far the cutest. Team DaDy-O.”
Olivia looked like a natural in the rehearsal room alongside Dylan, 33, and his partner and professional dancer, Daniella Karagach Pashkova. In the photos, the 5-year-old wore a ballet outfit, tights and ballroom shoes, which were the highlight of her outfit.
“OMG!!! Her tiny ballroom shoes,” DWTS pro Jenna Johnson wrote in the comments section of the post.
“I’ll never get over the mini ballroom shoes,” Karagach Pashkova, 32, wrote.
Olivia posed for the camera under the LED “DWTS” sign, and even snapped a few shots with Dylan and Daniella during dance breaks.
Taylor Lautner (née Dome) admitted that she was “crying” looking at the photos, while a separate person commented, “I’m already crying and we’re not even there yet.”
Dylan revealed that Olivia was his partner for Dedication Week during a post-show interview with Entertainment Tonight after the October 7 taping.
“I see [Olivia] in the audience, and it gives me confidence to be that big brother,” the Traitors season 3 winner gushed to the outlet. “I think she’s way more talented than me, so to see her at this age already say, ‘Yeah, I can do that,’ … it means everything.”
Before kicking off DWTS season 34, Dylan shared a video of himself dancing with Olivia in a parking lot, who donned a hot pink Disney princess costume.
“My sister taught my first ever dance lesson, so you better be nice,” he captioned the post.
