On February 11, Chinese variety program "Keep Running" shared on their Weibo page a dedication video to cast member Chinese actress Dilraba Dilmurat and announced that she will be backing out from the show, due to conflicts of schedule.
In the said video, the production crew of the Chinese variety program presented Dilmurat a photobook documenting her journey as a cast member, drawing tears from the actress.
Dilmurat later that day, took to Weibo to confirm the news and also expressed her sad feelings of leaving the show.
"I will continue to call my family [Keep Running cast members]. Let's shout it out one more time, "Keep Running" family!"
It can be recalled that Dilmurat joined the cast in 5th season and replaced the cast member Chinese model Angelababy who was pregnant at that time. Netizens suspect that she was being removed from the cast of the upcoming season, to make way for the model.
Angelababy responded to this issue in her Weibo.
"Xiao Di [Dilraba], we are not saying goodbye. Welcoming you home always, we are family!" the 28-year-old model wrote, dispelling all rumors that the two are not on good terms.
