Emma is a 27-year-old professional dancer and choreographer from Tamworth, Staffordshire, United Kingdom.
The pro dancer was pleasantly surprised upon seeing Rashad's natural dance ability and talent during Week 1, and now they are definitely frontrunners in the competition. Prior to the currently-airing season, Emma's highest finish on the show was fourth place in Season 17 with comedian Bill Engwall.
So Emma joined Dancing with the Stars back in 2012 for the show's fourteenth season, but what else do we know about her?
