What some people may not know is that Hough and Erbert actually met through work.

It wasn’t until 2015, however, that Derek and Erbert started dating.

Yes, it was super romantic and quite steamy but it was also totally public!

Derek recalled performing with his now-wife when onlookers started egging them on.

“We were on stage dancing.

So, our first kiss was actually on stage,” Derek told Kelly Clarkson.

“I think we both opened the door simultaneously, maybe?”

Derek asked, looking over at Erbert, who was in the audience.

She made a face as if to suggest that wasn’t the case.

Ultimately, the two agreed that it was indeed Derek who initiated things.

The next step for the newlyweds will most likely be kids.

But the couple has some big plans ahead before settling down to start a family.

“It’s been over 4 years since I’ve hit the road.

This will mark their first Christmas as husband and wife.

“We’re out here getting ready !

Are you ready?”

Hough captioned a jointInstagrampost that included clips of him and his wife in the gym.
