Zee says in an interview broadcast on Monday night's "Dancing with the Stars" that she developed the eating disorder after her parents' divorce. She says her biggest struggle with the disease came from ages 10 to 14.

She says she'll always "have body shaming issues" but has come to realize that "life is a lot bigger than that."

Zee will take the floor against UFC fighter Paige VanZant and model Nyle DiMarco in next week's "Dancing with the Stars" season finale.
