Sarah Michelle Gellar showed her support for her best friend Selma Blair after she had to exit “Dancing with the Stars” due to her ongoing battle with multiple sclerosis.
Gellar has been seen in the audience cheering on Blair, and made sure to show her some love online after Blair revealed that she couldn’t continue with the competition after getting her MRI results back.
The pair have been friends since starring in “Cruel Intentions” with one another back in 1999.
Gellar wrote alongside a selfie of them, “Long before @dancingwiththestars I knew you were a ten, and now the world knows. Selma I’ve never been so proud of you (and I’m often proud of you) You make the rest of us believe that we can do anything. That we can never give up.”
She added of Blair’s dance partner Sasha Farber: “And a special thank you to @sashafarber1 for making this experience what it has been for James- pure joy. I will miss getting to watch the happiness radiate from Selma each week as she stepped on stage with you. Thank you for that gift. And speaking of gifts- @selmablair your love and friendship is the greatest gift. I love you Blair.”
