In early March, Everhardt was called up to compete at the 2026 World Championships following the withdrawal of Alysa Liu due to reigning U.S national pewter medalist and first alternate, Bradie Tennell, declining the offer to replace Liu. She elected to bring back her "Firebird" free skate for the occasion. "I mean, it’s okay," she said following her placement. "It would have been cool if I was a little bit higher up, but it’s whatever. I try to look at what I did in my skating, and I’m happy with my performance. So that means I’m happy with the overall result."
