Their performance on "Oh! Pretty Woman" tango had fourth best of seven scores. Followed by that, the duo lost the dance-off against Simone Biles and his partner, Sasha Farber which increased the chance of their elimination. Biles and Farber made their place to the final five.
The other to be eliminated was "The Bachelor" star Nick Viall which brought the competitors from seven to five. Viall lost the dance-off against Bonner Bolton.
Kerrigan, after the elimination said to Good Morning America:
I guess I was a little shocked, just because I really wanted to get to the end. I want to keep moving and learn more, but I knew every week there’s always that chance. I don’t know. It’s just part of the game, I guess.
