LOS ANGELES, May 3 (UPI) -- Kendra Wilkinson and her pro dance partner Louis Van Amstel were eliminated from the competition series "Dancing with the Stars" in Los Angeles Tuesday night.

"I lasted seven weeks longer than I ever thought I would last," the model and reality TV personality said upon learning her fate. "First of all, I want to thank Louis for sticking with me and not fighting with me. Second of all, I want to thank my family. I want to thank [my husband] Hank [Baskett] for being there for me every step of the way. I want to thank my baby, Hank, for being there, too. Baby Hank, I'm coming home for you. I'm not the best dancer, but I am the best mom."

Still in the running for the coveted mirror ball trophy are Ralph Macchio, Kirstie Alley, Hines Ward, Chelsea Kane, Romeo and their professionally trained partners.
