Carole Baskin doesn't understand why Don Lewis' family would 'continue to do this' to her.
"I haven't made any kind of jokes about Don's disappearance and it's been a very personal thing to me for years," Baskin said, noting that she's asked about it on Cameo, a site that allows celebrities to send personalized video messages to fans."On Cameo, people reach out to me all the time and they want me to say things about that and I just decline their request because I'm not going to make fun of something that was so painful for all of us.
"You have to ask them what their thinking is and why they would continue to do this," Baskin said of Lewis' family, adding that the news"didn't stop me from doing my best as I did last week." "My mother actually texted me and said how proud she was even though it was a sin in our family for us to dance, so thank you, Mom," Baskin shared."It was an absolute sin and I was really concerned over what she was going to think about me being on this show, about dancing. But it was really nice to get that text from her and say she still loves me."
