Derek Hough & Hayley Erbert Return To 'Dancing With The Stars' Dance Floor

Derek Hough and Hayley Erbert made their triumphant return to the dance floor on Monday night’s (October 19) episode of Dancing With The Stars!

The couple performed a stunning, classic Paso Roble during week six of the competition show.

Ahead of the dance, Derek opened up about him and Hayley making their way back to the ballroom.

“Yeah, it’s been a while. It’s been a couple of years, but I’m excited. I’m excited to be back in the ballroom as a judge, but now I’m very excited to be back in there performing and dancing,” he told Fox News.

“I was in the ballroom the other day. It was empty, and we were rehearsing. And I just was reflecting on all the performances I’ve done in that room and the experiences and just the memories, and it’s pretty wild,” Derek added. “So, I’m really excited to add this performance to the list and obviously to share it with my beautiful girlfriend Hayley. We’ve been practicing in the garage for this performance.”

“We’re dancing sort of a classic Paso Doble dance because I love the strings and the drums and the flamenco guitar, just the nylon strings. And things like that, I get excited about, and I love that style, that passion in those dances. I’m looking forward to it,” he continued.
