Maks Chmerkovskiy, famous for his tenure on Dancing with the Stars, announced to fans Monday that he is leaving Ukraine and not to panic if they don’t hear from him.
In an Instagram video, he said, “I’m going to try and make my way out. I’m going to start making my way towards the border. I have options. Just a little nervous, but I think it’s going to be all right. I know it’s going to be OK.”
He also warned viewers not to get concerned if he “disappears for a while.”
“The streets are crazy. At one point, I got arrested, but again, all good, promise,” he said. “That was probably the least traumatizing moment in this whole thing as far as Ukraine is concerned, but for me, it was just a reality check.”
