Us Magazine Dancing With the Stars' Brooke Burke confirmed Monday that injured Misty May-Treanor will be sitting out for good.
"It's such a sad situation. She did hurt her Achilles tendon. I don't know if she tore it or ruptured it," Brooke said on L.A.'s 104.3 FM. "She's out of the competition. Just like that, it's over for her.
"The sad thing...this is her jumping mechanism," Burke added of the beach volleyball champ, 31. "We're all really concerned for her. She may be having surgery this week. We don't know yet. It's such a bummer."
"She heard a pop," Burke said of the Olympic gold medalist, "so it's really serious."

Asked if anyone would be eliminated this week in light of May-Treanor's absence, Burke said, "We don't know. They still have to have the same amount of shows.
"I heard [Edyta Sliwinska] and [Maksim Chmerkovskiy] may dance together since both of their partners are gone, but I don't know what's going to happen," Burke said.

Burke also confirmed that her current partner Derek Hough and his ex partner Shannon Elizabeth "are still together.
"They're living together," Burke said. "She comes to rehearsals and they're going strong."
Burke recently blogged that Hough "received a clean bill of health" after taking a tumble during practice on Saturday.
