Derek Hough Posts Sweet Message For Girlfriend Hayley Erbert On Her Birthday

Derek Hough recently paid tribute to his girlfriend, Hayley Erbert, on her 23^rd birthday.

On his Instagram account, the “World of Dance” judge uploaded a photo of the two of them kissing. Hough kept his caption short and sweet by greeting Erbert and calling her “my beautiful.” The photo was originally taken at Hough’s younger sister Julianne Hough’s wedding to Brooks Laich on July 8 in Idaho.

Julianne also greeted her brother’s girlfriend on social media by saying that she is her WCW or Woman Crush Wednesday. Julianne’s caption narrated how much she loves Erbert and revealed how close they are with each other. No wonder, Julianne is open to organizing Hough and Erbert’s wedding regardless of when it will be.

“That was the only thing about that wedding… It was amazing, but I don’t get to plan anything else. That’s sad. So all my girlfriends, my guy friends, Derek, I’m like, ‘If you need any help… hint, hint,’ I love it!” she told Entertainment Tonight.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem as though Hough and Erbert will tie the knot any time soon. Hough spoke with the same publication and said, “I’ve seen Julianne’s love with Brooks – them together, seeing what they have, it makes me want to make sure. I want to marry once. I want to be with that person that I love dearly. I want to get to know that person. I feel like if anything, it’s something that I don’t feel like should be rushed into doing at all.”

In November, Hough also told Ellen DeGeneres on the “Ellen Show” that his mindset on marriage has changed in recent years. “You know, if you would have asked me like a year ago or two years ago, I’d probably have been like: ‘I’m not really looking for that.’ But I’m kind of in a place now in my life, kind of in a transition, and yeah – I see myself married with kids within the next five years, so, we’ll see,” he said.

As for Julianne, she told ET that no matter what her brother chooses to do, she will support him. “He’s my best friend and whatever happens, I’ll be so happy. Or if it never happens, I’ll be so happy. Who knows?” she said.
