Regarding your request for recent Anna Sorokin developments: The search results provided contain information primarily from early February 2026 and earlier, not "the past few days" from February 15, 2026.
The most recent verified development in these results is from February 10, 2026, when AOL reported that **Anna Delvey joined Season 33 of "Dancing with the Stars,"** competing alongside pro dancer Ezra Sosa. She received permission from ICE to participate while under home confinement with an ankle monitor, which she wore in the official promotional photo.
The announcement sparked significant backlash. According to AOL, Whoopi Goldberg expressed outrage on "The View," questioning why Delvey received special permission when other families struggled to reunite with detained relatives. The casting drew mixed reactions on social media—some criticized glorifying a criminal, while others defended it as appropriate reality television content.
According to the search results, Delvey (real name Anna Sorokin) was convicted in 2019 of stealing 275,000 dollars from hotels, banks, and wealthy New Yorkers. She served approximately three years in prison before being detained by ICE in fall 2022 for visa overstay, a case still pending. The show's press release, per AOL, described her as "an artist, fashion icon and infamous NYC socialite" without mentioning her criminal convictions.
Her partner Sosa told Instagram followers he was "thrilled" to compete with her and joked about bedazzling her ankle monitor with rhinestones.
"Dancing with the Stars" is scheduled to premiere September 17 at 7 p.m. Central Time.
