Derek Hough praises wife's 'miracle' recovery, continues to ask for prayers amid her health scare.

  • Hayley Erbert, wife of 'Dancing With the Stars' judge Derek Hough, underwent a second surgery to replace a portion of her skull that was removed during an emergency craniectomy earlier this month.
  • Erbert was hospitalized after a performance on their Symphony of Dance tour when she became disoriented and was diagnosed with a cranial hematoma from a burst blood vessel.
  • Hough has been providing regular updates on Erbert's condition on social media, thanking fans for their prayers and support.
  • Erbert's recovery process has been described as 'nothing short of a miracle' by Hough, who also noted that she still has a long way to go.
  • A year ago, Erbert was injured in a car accident with Hough, which left her with bruising, scrapes and swelling on one side of her face and forehead.
