Derek Hough Reaffirms His Commitment to Hayley Erbert with Heartfelt Gesture
March 25, 2025 – Derek Hough has once again proven why he’s one of the most romantic men in Hollywood. The Dancing with the Stars judge and professional dancer recently reaffirmed his commitment to his wife, Hayley Erbert, with a heartfelt gesture that left fans swooning.
In a touching moment shared on social media, Hough surprised Erbert with a handwritten letter, reminiscing about their journey together and vowing to continue cherishing every moment. The emotional tribute came alongside a special dinner he prepared at their home, featuring her favorite dishes and a playlist of songs that have defined their relationship.
“Every day, I choose you. Through every high and low, through every dance of life, my love for you only grows stronger,” Hough wrote in his message to Hayley.
This reaffirmation of their love comes after a challenging year in which Erbert faced a major health scare, requiring emergency brain surgery in late 2023. Since then, the couple has been open about how the experience strengthened their bond and deepened their appreciation for one another.
Fans and celebrity friends flooded their comments with admiration, calling their love story “inspirational” and praising Hough for continuously showing his love in meaningful ways.
With their second wedding anniversary approaching in August, many are already wondering what grand romantic gesture Hough has in store next.
