Since 2012, Sasha Farber<\/a> has been a staple on\u00a0Dancing With the Stars<\/a><\/em>, which is why fans were so confused when he wasn\u2019t part of the Season 34 cast more than a decade later.<\/p>\n Farber began his\u00a0DWTS<\/em> tenure as a member of the troupe for Seasons 14, 15, and 16. During Season 17, he was promoted to pro and partnered with Nicole \u201cSnooki\u201d Polizzi<\/a>. He then returned to the troupe for four seasons before coming back to the main cast in Season 22. Since then, Farber has been on every season of the show, sans Season 25.<\/p>\n So, what\u2019s the deal with his absence from the 2025 season? Scroll down for everything we know, including how Farber will still be involved with the show going forward.<\/p>\n While ABC has not commented on the decision not to have Farber back, longtime pro Valentin Chmerkovskiy<\/a> told Us Weekly<\/a>, \u201cIt\u2019s not personal. It\u2019s the nature of this business.\u201d He also noted that \u201cbreakups happen in life.\u201d<\/p>\n Indeed, the cast of\u00a0Dancing With the Stars<\/em> is ever-evolving. While some pros have decided to step away on their own accord, others have been replaced with newer faces in recent years. This season, Jan Ravnik is a new pro who joined the cast.<\/p>\n Luckily, Farber doesn\u2019t seem to be taking the news too hard. \u201cIt\u2019s a beautiful day today. Guys, the Dancing With the Stars<\/em> cast announcement was today,\u201d he said in an Instagram Story video<\/a> after the cast was announced on September 3. \u201cWow, so many good names. Who are you going to vote for? I mean, I know who I\u2019m going to vote for. I know who you\u2019re not going to vote for, that\u2019s me. That\u2019s OK.\u201d<\/p>\n He also added, \u201cThank you so much for all your incredible messages. I read them all. I see it all. I definitely don\u2019t deserve you because you guys are amazing.
