Cheryl Burke is sharing her story. Following the Supreme Court's decision overturning Roe v.
Wade, the "Dancing with the Stars" pro took to TikTok to speak out. She captioned the 3-minute video, "I’m saddened by the Supreme Court’s decisions right to overturn #roevwade that guarantees a woman’s right to choose." In the video Burke told her social media followers, "I am saddened by the news this morning, and it weighs heavy in my heart because I had an abortion when I was 18 years old, and if it wasn’t for places like Planned Parenthood, I would be a mother." She continued: "I wouldn’t have been a great mother, and I definitely wouldn’t be sitting here with you today." Burke, 38, went on to share, "I got an abortion while I was going through a really huge transition in my life.
I was practicing safe sex, I was using protection, and I was on birth control, and s--t happens." Burke, who was two weeks pregnant when she got an abortion, recounted driving up to a Planned Parenthood clinic and seeing "picketers holding up anti-abortion signs," explaining "that alone was traumatic."

"What world do we live in today?" the professional dancer questioned.
"It is nobody's business." Following the Supreme Court's decision overturning Roe v. Wade, the "Dancing with the Stars" pro took to TikTok to speak out.
