On her Instagram page, Burke also shared in her own words what happened during rehearsals. She thanked McLean for being the "best partner I could ask for that was there to pick me up off the ground."
Likewise, McLean also posted a photo of him with Burke and explained to his fans what happened. He thanked everyone who has been sending love her way and said he is "so proud" of his partner for battling through the adversity.
Going into Monday's new episode, the two are coming off their best dance of the season, tying three other teams with a 27 for the highest score of the week. Their samba to "Mi Gente" earned them three 9s.
Burke and McLean have been among the rising teams in terms of scoring since the start. They have raised their score every week besides Weeks 4 and 5 when they got back-to-back 24s.
Throughout the season, Burke has been extremely supportive of McLean and his continued growth. Following their 27 last week, Burke wrote on Instagram that so she "witnessed so much improvement" in her partner.
The pair have struck up such a strong bond that they've even set up their own podcast, Pretty Messed Up. The two share insight into their dances through the competition and also touch on their personal lives. The podcast premiered in early September at the start of the ABC reality show.
Dancing With the Stars airs on Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC. The newest episode will center on a Halloween theme as the couples take part in Villain's Night.
