The Dancing with the Stars pro said a trial “will take place in January.”
“That’s my dog,” Burke said. “Ysabella is my daughter – I’m a dog mom and that’s it. I couldn’t even imagine my life – I mean, I could just cry right now – but I couldn’t imagine my life without her.

Burke originally filed for the split on February 18, 2022 and said the couple split on January 7, 2022.
Lawrence and Burke first met in 2006 when his brother Joey Lawrence, 46, was competing in the ABC ballroom competition. They dated for a year and split before rekindling their relationship in 2017, announcing their engagement in 2018, and marrying in San Diego at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar in May 2019.
Burke took to Instagram on February 24, 2022 with a statement about the end of the marriage.
“I know I’ve always said I’m an open book with you guys, I strive to be, and writing this made me realize there’s no easy way to announce the end of my marriage,” said she said. “I hope you can understand that I will not comment further at this time and ask for your understanding and privacy. Thank you all for all the kind words and support you have given me – love you all.
Burke spoke about her state of mind amid the breakup in a statement on the social media site on March 6.
“I’ve realized that whenever I’m at a point in my life where I’m trying to process major emotions, the best thing I can do is spend some time alone — other than being with myself [my dog] Ysa, of course, but I really feel like she’s a part of me, so she doesn’t count,” Burke said. “To be honest, really feeling my feelings is new to me.”
Burke said she’s spent her “entire life numbing her feelings up to this point,” and she’s “learning that really living through them is MUCH harder.”
She added, “I think all of this means that the best thing for me was to really experience my feelings, whatever they might be, to be alone for a few days. I would really encourage everyone else out there to try and not feel guilty about needing that space.
