Hough, 38, added, “We cannot wait to dance together again on stage and be back with all our fans, and thank them. Thank you all the amazing support that you’ve shown during this time. We cannot wait.”

Erbert further reflected on her recovery in a separate post on Instagram Friday that showed her rehearsing the tour’s dance routines with her husband.

“What a blessing (and surprise) it is to be able to be back on stage dancing with my love after such a crazy past four months,” the “Dancing with the Stars” troupe member wrote.

“My healing journey has been nothing short of extraordinary and being able to dance again is igniting my soul in all the ways; speeding up my recovery even more.”

Erbert thanked her team of doctors who “supported” her decision to dance again, adding that they made sure her “health and safety” were a priority.

In December 2023, the pro dancer underwent emergency brain surgery after she “became disoriented and was taken to the hospital” during a Symphony of Dance tour stop in Washington, DC.

“She was diagnosed with a cranial hematoma from a burst blood vessel and required an emergency craniectomy,” Hough explained on Instagram at the time.

In the weeks that followed, Erbert underwent a second surgery to replace a “large portion of her skull.”

She also had to shave all of her hair off, as her scars healed from the invasive procedures.

All the while, Hough stayed by his wife’s side and praised her publicly for her strength.

The “DWTS” judge gushed on a red carpet in Feb. 13, “She’s unbelievable. When I married her, I knew she was strong, but I really didn’t realize how strong she really was until now.”

He then added, “She really is a miracle. I don’t really throw that word around lightly, but she really is.”

The couple tied the knot last August in a romantic ceremony at a redwood forest in California.
