Danica McKellar, who played Fred Savage’s neighbor and love interest Winnie Cooper in the Emmy-winning comedy The Wonder Years, is the latest victim on Dancing with the Stars.

Far from being voted off, McKellar was one point shy of being the show’s first perfect-scoring performer of the season earlier this month in a dance with partner Valentin Chmerkovskiy. But her future on the show may be more difficult: on Friday, she said she broke a rib during a practice.

So...I broke a rib in yesterday's #DWTS rehearsal. Trying my best to pull thru and could use your prayers!! #wanttokeepdancing
