"Six, seven months pregnant, taking care of my three young kids, cause I was pretty bedridden for a while," BAG said, saying that the "Dancing with the Stars" pro was "amazing."
He went on to note that she was also taking care of him all that time, "not complaining, being amazing." He added, "I am super thankful to have someone like her in my life."

"I never said it’s the first time I had it 🤣," he posted, without specifically referring to any comments in particular. "why would you guys be negative on this thread? That makes no sense to me." Most of the comments appear to be extremely positive and supportive.
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that can cause inflammations and ulcers in the digestive tract, according to the Mayo Clinic.
