Hayley Erbert Was on Tour With Derek Hough in 2023
Erbert went on tour with Hough in late 2023 for the “Symphony of Dance” show. After one of their performances, Erbert started feeling unwell and was rushed to a nearby hospital. In the weeks that followed, she underwent two surgeries for a cranial hematoma.
“Hayley has always inspired me with her will, her strength, and her resilience and no more so than in the last 48 hrs. She is now on the long road of recovery,” Hough captioned an Instagram post on December 8.
Due to the unforeseen emergency, Hough canceled the remainder of his “Symphony of Dance” tour. However, Erbert made a remarkable recovery and Hough felt that he could resume the tour.
“Hey, everyone! So, I am so thrilled to be announcing the continuation of my Symphony of Dance tour. This includes the rescheduled dates from December and some brand new dates. So, for any fan that still has tickets from the December dates, those will still be valid for the rescheduled shows,” he said in an Instagram video uploaded on February 14.
The best part, for many, was that Erbert was able to rejoin Hough as she got the all clear from her doctors to dance again.
