Farber and the Little Women: LA star were eliminated in the tenth week of Dancing with the Stars' Season 23 competition on Monday night's broadcast. Based on Farber's initial reaction to dancing with a little person, he probably never anticipating making it this far.
"The second that I met Terra, I was like, 'How is this going to work?' Terra is the first little person on the show," Farber admitted.
"It was quite hard, those first few weeks actually, just having my c-section and then going straight into dancing," said Jole, who began rehearsing three weeks after welcoming her son Grayson. "[But] as the weeks progressed it got easier, but I may have accumulated some hernias because of it."
Farber said it didn't take long at all to realize Jole's potential and determination.
"Within the first hour of rehearsal she inspired me so much and [I] definitely wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Terra. She's been the best partner I've ever had and she's just amazing and I feel like this journey ended and I have a friend for life," Farber told GMA.
The pro dancer said working with Jole has made him a better dancer and instructor at the end of the day.
"Terra has definitely taught me to push myself and it was challenging, but she's proven to me there is no challenge that we can't do," Farber explained.
"I mean, you just keep pushing because this competition is such a unique opportunity and a life-changing experience that you never want to give up on," added the reality TV star.
And Jole and Farber went out with a bang! The couple received two perfect scores, topping the judges' leaderboard last night.
"It was really great," Jole admitted. "That was our first perfect score and then we got two of them which was -- it was a great night."
