What now?'”

News).
The “World of Dance” alum talked about being “in shock” and feeling different emotions. “One week I’ll be doing really well and the next I’m bombarded with new emotions.” Dewan also recalled not knowing what to do next because he was not used to the breakup. “There were many times I hid under the covers, wondering what was next.”
