Andrews' co-host Tom Bergeron took to Twitter to share the news Sunday, revealing that Andrews' boyfriend, hockey player Jarret Stoll, had lost his nephew, and that Andrews would be taking time off to support Stoll.

"My pal @ErinAndrews will be absent from @DancingABC this week to support @jarretstoll whose nephew passed away," Bergeron wrote. "Sending hugs and condolences."

Bergeron is set to host the show solo on Monday, while an as-yet-undetermined guest will be filling in for Andrews on Tuesday night's results show.

Neither Andrews nor Stoll has commented on his nephew's death.
