Pregnancy Rumors Spark as Hayley Erbert Updates Fans on Derek Hough’s Ear Infection
Derek Hough’s wife, Hayley Erbert, recently gave fans an update on her husband’s health amid his battle with an ear infection, but her message has also ignited speculation that the couple may be expecting their first child.
Hough, the renowned dancer and choreographer best known for his time on Dancing with the Stars, announced last week that he was taking time off due to an ear infection that had caused discomfort, dizziness, and temporary hearing issues. As fans eagerly awaited updates, Hayley took to social media to reassure everyone that Derek was recovering well.
“Thank you all for the incredible support you’ve shown Derek. He’s been resting up, following the doctor’s advice, and I’m happy to say he’s doing much better,” Hayley shared. However, it was what she said next that caught the attention of many.
“This has been a time of rest and reflection for both of us, and we’re cherishing every moment together,” she added. Fans quickly began speculating that her words hinted at a possible pregnancy. Some followers pointed out that her recent social media activity has included more sentimental posts, fueling rumors that the couple could be preparing for a major life announcement.
Despite the swirling rumors, Hayley did not address any pregnancy speculation directly, choosing instead to focus on Derek’s health and gratitude for the support from fans. “The messages from all of you mean the world to both of us. Derek can’t wait to get back on stage, but right now, his health is our top priority,” she wrote.
While neither Derek nor Hayley has commented on the speculation, fans continue to analyze every post for clues. For now, supporters are simply wishing Derek a speedy recovery—and eagerly awaiting any potential big news from the couple.
