Just weeks after his wife Hayley Erbert underwent a terrifying emergency brain surgery, Derek Hough shared a sentimental holiday post with her.
Hough, 38, shared a new snap of him and Erbert, 29, kissing by their tree on Christmas Day on Monday.
‘Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas! Cherishing the greatest gift of all. The precious gift of life and the love we share. Hold your loved ones close and treasure every moment,’ Hough said in the caption of his post.
Hough was wearing a cream-colored top and black sweats while Erbert was decked out in hunter green pajamas with a green bandanna around her head.
The couple tied the knot in a redwood forest wedding in Monterey County, California back in late August.

‘Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas! Cherishing the greatest gift of all. The precious gift of life and the love we share. Hold your loved ones close and treasure every moment,’ the couple said in their joint Instagram post.
Hough’s sister, actress and dancer Julianne Hough, commented, ‘You are our Christmas miracle.’
Derek revealed on December 7 that his wife was rushed to the hospital after suffering a cranial hematoma, while they were performing at their Symphony of Dance tour in Washington D.C.
A cranial hematoma happens when blood accumulates, ‘within the brain or between the brain and the skull,’ according to Mayo Clinic.
‘At the end of last night’s tout performance in Washington, D.C., my wife Hayley became disoriented and was taken to the hospital,’ he wrote.
‘She was diagnosed with a cranial hematoma from a burst blood vessel and required an emergency craniectomy. She is in stable condition,’ he added.
‘I want to thank the first responders and medical personnel who have cared for and continue to care for her. I ask for your prayers and positivity during this time,’ Hough added.
Hough then revealed the next day, ”Hayley has always inspired me with her will, her strength, and her resilience and no more so than in the last 48 hours. She is now on the long road of recovery,’ he wrote.

The Dancing With The Stars judge then spoke about the gratitude he felt for all the well wishes that had been sent by his fans.
‘Words cannot express how grateful and thankful we are for the support and love that you have given us,’ he said.
‘The kindness that we’ve been shown in this incredibly unfathomable, and life changing time is immeasurable,’ he wrote.
He concluded by writing: ‘The offers of assistance that have poured in have been so humbling and appreciated. Our hope is that as a family, we can somehow and someway pay it forward.’
