what did max say about jan on dancing with the stars

Maks Chmerkovskiy criticized Jan Ravnik's casting on Dancing with the Stars, calling it "absurd" and saying Jan has no business being a pro on the show. He shared these comments during appearances tied to his wife Peta Murgatroyd’s podcast and other media on October 24–29, 2025. Affleck (Jan Ravnik’s partner) defended him afterward, insisting Jan has value and that the critique focused on casting decisions rather than Jan’s personal abilities.
