AceShowbiz - While Joey Graziadei competes on "Dancing with the Stars", his fiancee, [c=Kelsey Anderson\, has faced online scrutiny and support. Anderson, 26, has leaned on Graziadei and his sister Carly for guidance in navigating social media trolls who have questioned their relationship.
"Sometimes I need extra support," Anderson said. "I'll call Carly and she's like, 'Make the video.' "
During a recent episode of "DWTS", Anderson emotionally shut down rumors that her relationship with Graziadei was troubled. She explained that a "special" performance dedicated to her by Graziadei had left her emotional, prompting her to share a video addressing trolls.
"I thought about it for a minute and I was like, 'You know what, I'm just gonna say something because maybe it'll help people not always jump to conclusions,'" Anderson said.
Despite her initial response, Anderson intends to limit her reactions to online negativity. "I'm not gonna always react whenever people are saying things," she said.
Anderson also emphasized her support for Graziadei's participation in "DWTS". "I love watching him perform," she said. "He is consistently just pushing his limits."
In addition to her relationship with Graziadei, Anderson is using her platform to raise awareness for breast cancer. She has partnered with F**k Cancer and Little Words Project for a pop-up fundraiser, where attendees can create and purchase bracelets with Anderson while supporting the cause.
