That's a classy statement from Emily. She seems to be at a crossroad in what she wants to do I wish her the best.

Emily is such a superb skater, I wish there was some male partner to match her up with here in the US. I wish her luck on whichever path she chooses, however!

I really hate reading this news and hope Emily finds a partner. Someone with her talent and beautiful lines should be skating. I still can't believe Evan dumped her. I always thought one day they would be on the world podium. But wherever she ends up, I hope she's happy.

This. Emily has always been one of my favorite skaters of any discipline. Part of the reason for this is how classy she is.

I wish them both the best.

Very classy and very mature. :respec: Best wishes to her.

That was lovely. I always liked her, in fact, she and Evan were my fav American dancers. I wish her well..

Agree with all the supportive posts. above.
If she wishes to continue skating. I hope she finds a partner who appreciates her.

Gramps, please give Em all our best. She is one class act on and off the ice!

Wow, that is really thoughtful and mature. I'm sorry the partnership ended, but it seems to have been a very considered decision that was done with everyone's best interests taken into account.

One of the BEST technicians in ice dance, her crisp & precise skating was and is a thing of beauty. :) All the best to you, Emily!!!! :cheer2:

So sorry to see her out of competition AGAIN. . . I hope that she can soon find a partner worthy of her. She's still young!

[Garden Kitty]

I hope she's able to find a way to stay in skating that fulfills her and is fun, whether it's coaching or competing. That was a very mature, classy post and I wish her and Todd all the best in the future.

My favourite original dance from 2009 was Emily and Evan's Sailor and Showgirl MGM inspired routine to Let Yourself Go. So elegant.
