“It definitely sucks,” Lee told Us Magazine and other reporters on Monday. “I feel like I really had a breakthrough these past couple of weeks and I had my best two dances tonight.”

Throughout Monday night’s episode, Lee spoke about the pressure she felt at the Olympics. She said “Dancing with the Stars” taught her to love herself.
