“With immense relief, gratitude and overwhelming joy I’d like to share that Hayley’s cranioplasty surgery has been successfully completed as planned. My sincere appreciation goes to the exceptional medical team,” Hough, 38, wrote Thursday.
“Their expertise and steady hands were pivotal in this journey, ensuring a smooth and successful surgery. Especially Dr. Mai who not only performed the surgery but was also the one who saved her life 2 weeks ago,” Hough added. “We are profoundly touched by the outpouring of support and prayers from each of you.”
Hough’s message accompanied a photo of him at Erbert’s bedside in the hospital.
Erbert, a 29-year-old dancer, suffered symptoms of a cranial hematoma earlier this month.
The couple announced their engagement in June 2022 after seven years of dating and exchanged wedding vows in August 2023.
