EW Dispatch newsletter<\/a>.<\/p>\nWeaver nearly missed the end of the season for an ankle injury, but pushed through.<\/p>\n
“I told myself, if I can just get to 70 percent and then push through for the last two games, I’m going to do it and have had a full healthy recovery in this off season. I’m doing much better and excited for hopefully more dancing in the future.”<\/p>\n
Weaver has been a standout star since season 1 of America\u2019s Sweethearts debuted on Netflix in 2024, which has come with one million Instagram followers and a lot of attention \u2014 on and off the field. She tells EW that she feels the pressure to put the sweet in sweetheart.<\/p>\n
“Will and I were grocery shopping one time and we had a very busy week. I was getting really stressed and tired \u2014 emotionally, mentally, physically. I had nothing left in my battery. I was just done. I said, ‘Maybe we can just go in and out of the grocery store and no one will [approach us].’ And sure enough, every single aisle that we went down, it was one thing after another,” she recalls. “There [are] times where [you feel that huge] pressure of feeling like you constantly have to be on and show the Reece on TV…. I try to be the most authentic as possible when I’m on the show so that everyone can just see me and not feel like they’re meeting someone else differently in person.”<\/p>\n
Another thing Weaver has had to navigate is negative social media chatter, often about her husband who some fans suggest isn’t as supportive as he should be.<\/p>\n

“If there’s one thing we’ve learned from these past three years is just how strong our relationship has really gotten just because we’ve been hit with some adversity that we never thought would be possible as a newlywed couple,” she says. “We are open for anything that comes our way and we have a really solid foundation because we’ve built some thick skin.”<\/p>\n
The couple recently relocated to Alabama.<\/p>\n
“That was one of Will and I’s dreams in college and because that was still a dream of ours, we felt like that was still something that we were being called to do and we’re really excited about it,” she says.<\/p>\n
Weaver is also writing a book \u2014 “I can’t share too much detail, but I do think that it’s going to be really encouraging for young women,” she tells EW \u2014 and hopes to keep performing.<\/p>\n
“Dance is not over for me. I hate the word retirement. That’s kind of the terminology that we say in our organization,” she says. “But I would love to continue to dance. If Broadway ever calls, I’m down to answer that phone call.”<\/p>\n
