Derek Hough Says Fatherhood Outranks His Six DWTS Championships

Derek Hough says becoming a father to daughter Everley has eclipsed his six Dancing With the Stars championships as his greatest achievement. Hough and his wife, Hayley Erbert, brought their 8-month-old daughter to the DWTS season 35 premiere, where he judged and performed “The Rose” with Erbert while Everley watched backstage. The couple has also taken Everley on tour and is preparing for additional performances, with Hough saying he tries to savor time with her amid his demanding schedule. Hough addressed criticism of his and sister Julianne Hough’s solo premiere performances, explaining that production needed time to tally votes and that he was happy to help. He also joked about mistakenly calling contestant Tyler Cameron “Dylan” and comparing him to Patrick Swayze.

The case centers on a chaotic 911 call, the couple’s two daughters, and a two‑week jury trial in which Flynn’s defense argues the evidence may not prove the charges beyond a reasonable doubt.
