Arnold parted ways with the franchise in 2022 to focus on raising her daughters, later explaining that motherhood changed everything about how she viewed her time and priorities. Speaking to PEOPLE earlier this year, she shared that her mindset had shifted once she became a parent and that she recognized how precious early childhood years truly are.
She said she wanted to feel fulfilled in her "DWTS" accomplishments in case she never returned, and eventually reached the point where she felt ready. She explained that she and her husband were “past the point of being ready” to expand their family and that waiting turned out to be “so right” for them.
Her announcement today reflects that new clarity, celebrating growth, family, and the next chapter ahead.

Before her third pregnancy, Arnold made headlines for discussing her breast augmentation and lift, a personal decision she shared openly with fans nearly a year ago on TikTok.
She revealed that the procedure had been a Christmas gift and admitted she felt a mix of nervousness and excitement leading up to the surgery. While she was “very excited,” she acknowledged the weight of making such personal choices. She described the process as “kind of a whirlwind,” but emphasized it was something she “always knew” she wanted to do.
Arnold said she would be willing to go into more detail about the procedure if fans were interested, noting that she understood the mixed opinions surrounding cosmetic surgery. As she put it, the decision isn’t for everyone, but it was right for her.
