"The rules state, and these are rules that we've had since 2005, when we started the show," host Tom Bergeron said. "And, I'm quoting from them. In the instance of illness or other health related matters affecting a participant's ability to participate in the game, they must withdraw."
Appearing via skype, Kim opened up about the health scare. "I'm good," she said. "I feel really great. I don't know if you know, but I rehearsed on Saturday. I learned that whole dance that Jenna just did and then my doctor told me yesterday that it's just too soon to fly. That I can go next week. So I'm really sad. I can dance; I just can't fly. And if I lived in Vegas, or I even lived 12 hours [away], I would be there tonight but I didn't get discharged until Friday evening and there's just no way I could make it L.A."
Following her #DWTS exit, the mother-of-six took to social media to express her feelings. "I'm a winner regardless! I have the most incredible husband (thanks for being my rock) and 6 AMAZING kids! #BringKimandTonyBack," wrote Zolciak on her Twitter page on Tuesday, September 29.
