Who is Derek Hough to Be Married to? Inside His Relationship Status
The pro dancer is due to be married.
Most likely, you've heard of Derek Hough from Dancing with the Stars – an iconic show that unites different generations of viewers. Having debuted in 2004, DWTS has been on the air ever since. Meanwhile, Derek was a regular dancer on the show from 2007 to 2016. He won six out of thirty-one seasons and received three Emmys for his choreography.
It should come as no surprise that Derek Hough joined the DWTS panel of judges in 2020 and is now a regular on the show in this new, elevated position. He's expected to judge on Dancing with the Stars again this year. But while season 32 is underway, fans are scouring the web for details about the star dancer's personal life.
Derek Hough isn't married yet, but since around 2015, he has famously been in a long-term relationship with Hayley Erbert, a professional dancer, who even appeared on Dancing with the Stars with Derek before the two started dating.
Reportedly, they first met in 2014 when Derek's sister, Julianne Hough, also a professional dancer, hired Hayley for their troupe. In 2015, Erbert joined DWTS. It was during that time that Derek and Hayley took an interest in each other and started dating in secret behind the scenes.
In 2017, Hough and Erbert confirmed their relationship on Instagram. And a year ago, they announced their engagement, sending their fans into a frenzy of jubilation. The wedding is scheduled for August, but the star dancers are playing it close to the chest and not disclosing any details.
So who is Hayley Erbert? She was born in Topeka, Kansas, in 1994. After high school, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue a dancing career. There, she got additional training and danced her way to the top.
Over the years, Hayley has collaborated with numerous musicians as a backup dancer and appeared on several TV shows, including DWTS and So You Think You Can Dance. Besides, she is a social media influencer who regularly secures sponsorship deals. As of 2023, Hayley Erbert's net worth is estimated at $700 thousand.
Hough and Erbert seem happy together. We wish them all the best in their upcoming marriage.
