Derek Hough Calls Wife Hayley Erbert 'an Absolute Miracle' Following Skull Surgeries

Hayley Erbert was rushed to the hospital in early December after feeling 'disoriented' during a performance.

During Monday's episode of The Jennifer Hudson Show, 38-year-old Hough opens up about the whirlwind of emotions he experienced while accepting the prestigious Creative Arts Emmy Award for Outstanding Choreography for Variety or Reality Programming last month while also dealing with his wife's health battle. She underwent an emergency craniectomy on Dec 7, 2023, after suffering a cranial hematoma during the couple's Symphony of Dance tour stop in Washington, D.C. She later had a second surgery on Dec. 20 to replace a large portion of her skull. Despite the hardships, Hough and Erbert have continued to support each other, as showcased in a cute Instagram video shared earlier this month.
