usmagazine.com:

On the mend. Derek Hough and fiancée Hayley Erbert are recovering after being injured in a car crash earlier this month.“On December 12, Derek and I got into a pretty scary car accident in the mountains.

Our accident involved a steep hill, icy roads, a tree, and worst of all, the fear that we would slide off the mountain,” the So You Think You Can Dance alum, 28, captioned a Friday, December 23, Instagram post. “Given the circumstances, we have so much to be grateful for.

First, that there were no other people involved. Second, the quick response from paramedics.”Erbert — who has been linked to Hough, 37, since 2015 — noted that the twosome are “both OK.” She wrote: “I only walked away a little banged up, a swollen face, and four stitches above my eyebrow.

Now, more than ever, we realize how fragile life is and how important it is to love those around you.”The former Dancing With the Stars troupe member shared footage from the accident, including a hospital selfie after getting stitches in her forehead.
