Ilona Maher is putting herself in the sin bin.
After the professional rugby player went viral for accidentally making an unintentionally NSFW gesture while appearing on Dancing With the Stars Sept. 29, she set the record straight in a hilariously on-brand way.
ICYMI, during an on-camera moment on the Yacht Rock Episode of DWTS, host Alfonso Ribeiro was promoting the show’s podcast when the camera panned to Maher sitting alongside her former season 33 pro partner Alan Bersten and fellow former contestant Andy Richter.
The 30-year-old pointed at the camera, then Bersten and Richter—who hosts the podcasts—before making a gesture with one hand on top of the other under her mouth. Immediately, Maher seemed to realize her hand motions seemed to realize her hand motions looked fairly similar to an intimate act and winced before covering her mouth in shock.
The athlete and the group—which also featured Maher’s sister Olivia Maher and season 28 DWTS champion Hannah Brown—all burst into laughter over Maher’s blunder.
