Katelyn won immunity on Sunday evening, on the Dancing with the Stars Dedicated Dance Special, after dancing a Contemporary Ballroom to ‘Never Enough’ by Kelly Clarkson.
This means Katelyn, alongside pro partner Leonardo Lini, will be immune from elimination from next week’s Fright Night and the first dance off of the season.
After an emotional show in which contestants paid tribute to people who have made an impact on their lives and dedicated a dance to them, Katelyn and pro partner Leonardo received the highest combined points from the judges and public votes to earn immunity from the first dance off of the series next week on Fright Night. Katelyn said she was 'absolutely delighted' with the win. There was no elimination on this evening.
This special episode honoured former judge Julian Benson, who passed away in April last year. Viewers heard from former presenter Nicky Byrne and former Head Judge Lorraine Barry, as well as current presenter Jennifer Zamparelli and judges Brian Redmond, Karen Byrne, and Arthur Gourounlian, who shared memories of their dear friend and colleague.
The professional dancers also honoured the man endearingly named ‘Captain Sparkle’ with an emotional performance to ‘Last Dance’ by Donna Summer.
Next week is Fright Night, airing on Sunday, February 8, from 6:30pm on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player.
