This is why Nick Lachey’s son doesn’t want him competing on “DWTS” anymore
Season 25 of Dancing with the Stars is packed with some of our favorite faces. And two said faces are those of Nick and Vanessa Lachey. Although the Lacheys are having a blast competing this year, Nick Lachey says that their son doesn’t want him competing anymore.
Aww. But why?
Nick sat down on Tuesday with Access Hollywood Live and explained that being involved in the show has pushed him both physically and emotionally.
"It’s a lot of time," Nick said. "It’s a lot of rehearsals every day and then it’s all the packages and the interviews and the things you have to shoot outside of rehearsal. So to have both parents fully engaged in this whole thing, it’s been tough."
Nick and Vanessa’s five-year-old son Camden has been blunt about his feelings regarding his parents’ involvement in the show.
"My son said to me the other day," Nick continued, "he’s like, 'Daddy, I don’t want you to dance anymore.' It broke my heart because you wish you could spend more time with your kids, obviously."
Although filming has temporarily changed the family dynamic, Nick is glad he and Vanessa are competing at the same time.
"It is also very helpful to have a partner who’s going through the same kind of experience," he said. "At the end of the day, I can come home and talk about my sore feet or my sore back and emotionally how drained I am, and she totally gets it because she’s in the same spot."

The 98 Degrees member told Access Hollywood Live that Camden is still supporting his mom and dad when they get home from rehearsal. Nick jokes that he’s convinced Camden to “give daddy a foot massage while daddy gives mommy a foot massage.”
We’re sure that Camden will eventually be proud of his parents’ accomplishments, even if he’s less-than-enthused right now.We’re also wishing Nick and Vanessa the best of luck going forward in the competition!
