Lochte appeared on Good Morning America before the announcement Tuesday to reveal why he was joining Dancing With the Stars. The Olympian, who was charged with fabricating a robbery story to cover up a gas station incident in Rio, admitted that he wants to put this "behind him" and keep positive. He added that he wants "the whole world to move forward". 

Julianne Hough is officially re-joining the judging lineup, alongside Carrie Ann Inaba, Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli. Julianne previously judged seasons 19-21.
