Goodman appeared for the interview soon after retiring from “Dancing with the Stars.” After appearing as a judge for over 15 years, he wanted to spend time with his wife and grandchildren at home.

A source revealed that the judge predicted his death during the December 2022 interview. Goodman believed he would pass away like his father, who died from a stroke. He said:

“He was 79, so if I go the way of my dad, that’ll be next year.”

Since the judge had predicted his death, he had even thought of what to write in his obituary. He didn’t want the world to know him as a famous judge. Instead, he was happy to be a “dance teacher from Dartford who got lucky.”
