Kaitlyn, who won Dancing with the Stars' 29th season with pro partner Artem Chigvintsev, therefore predicted whom Charity may be paired up with for the ABC reality dancing competition.
"You're going to crush it... I have three thoughts of whom they might put you with based on height," Kaitlyn told Charity during her September 7 appearance on the "Off the Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe" podcast.
After Charity shared how she's just under 5'4" -- which is also Kaitlyn's height -- the podcast host guessed, "I think possibly Artem because of the height."
Kaitlyn continued, "I think possibly [Alan Bersten] because I could see them putting you with him, only because he's one of the more well-loved, I feel like, out of a lot of them. And I feel like I could see you and your fun personality with him."
But Kaitlyn warned Charity that Alan is "also crazy in the ballroom" and he's "kind of a d-ck," although she can envision them working well together.
"They're all d-cks," Kaitlyn clarified of the male DWTS pros. "They're all d-cks. I'm telling you, buckle up."
Kaitlyn pointed out how Gleb Savchenko is probably "too tall" for Charity but she'd love to see Charity dance with Brandon Armstrong.
"I would love if you're with Brandon! Brandon is so fun. He's probably the nicest, and he's just so goofy and sweet and means well. He's so fun," Kaitlyn explained.
"Artem is so hardcore. He's Russian, and that's how he was trained growing up. He will believe in you and he will push you to your limits, which we love."
Kaitlyn went on to declare, "And Alan would be an absolute nightmare, but it would really be like he'd take you far."

By participating in Dancing with the Stars, Charity will be following in the footsteps of many The Bachelor and The Bachelorette alums before her who have competed on the reality dancing competition -- including Gabby Windey, who placed second on Dancing with the Stars' 31st season last year.
Hannah Brown was also crowned champion of Dancing with the Stars' 28th season.

Kaitlyn, speaking from experience, warned Charity to buy herself an ice bath for her feet. Kaitlyn also said The Bachelorette star will be working seven-hour days without a day off, and that her body will be "hurting."
Kaitlyn, who starred on Season 11 of The Bachelorette, told Charity, "It's a really hard thing to go through... Battle through the pain."
The former DWTS winner continued, "The thing is, you've always got to see the light at the end of the tunnel. You're doing something fun, and don't forget that, because people get really caught up... in the competition of it and making it farther."
Kaitlyn pointed out how competing on Dancing with the Stars is "a lot" as well as "really hard," but she also gushed about how it was "one of the coolest things" she's ever done.
Given Charity and Dotun are freshly engaged off The Bachelorette's 20th season, Kaitlyn advised the couple to communicate well and put some time aside every week to clear the air and shed light on their feelings.

"We kind of already do that," Charity said with a laugh. "It's something we try to do every night."
Charity and Dotun agreed such an exercise would be "helpful" once they get into the "routine" of Dancing with the Stars and they'd love to try it together.

Dancing with the Stars will air Monday nights on ABC this fall, but its exact premiere date has yet to be announced.
Charity, who is originally from Georgia, will be living with Dotun during her Dancing with the Stars stint considering he is already living in Fresno, CA.
"Going into Dancing with the Stars, we both feel extremely secure in our relationship," Dotun recently told BachelorNation.com.
Dotun -- whom Charity had selected as her winner over runner-up Joey Graziadei during The Bachelorette's Season 20 finale that aired on August 21 -- added that he "is just so supportive."
"And the fact that we're not doing long distance and we're going to be together [helps]. I'll be home and I'll have dinner ready for her after those long practices," Dotun sweetly shared.
"And yeah, if anything ever happens, we [both agree] this relationship is a priority. And I think we have the communication skills to talk about it and take a step back any time it's needed."
Charity gushed that he man is her "biggest fan," and in her mind, they'll be doing the show "together."
Charity was only the second Dancing with the Stars celebrity announced.
The first celebrity unveiled was Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix, who made headlines this past March when her boyfriend of nearly a decade, Tom Sandoval, had been cheating on her with their Bravo co-star and her former best friend, Raquel Leviss.

Tyra Banks, who joined Dancing with the Stars in Season 29 to replace Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews, will not be returning in an on-screen role.
Derek Hough, Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli, however, will be reprising their judging roles as the panel of experts.
The show's fourth judge, Len Goodman, announced his retirement at the end of the show's 31st season late last year, and then he unexpectedly passed away in April 2023.
