DWTS judge Derek Hough masks up to shop with girlfriend Hayley Erbert in LA

Dancing With the Stars judge Derek Hough and his girlfriend Hayley Erbert shopped for arts & crafts together at Michaels in Los Angeles on Monday.

At 35, the two-time Emmy-winning choreographer is a decade older than the Kansas-born brunette, whom he’s been romancing for five years.

Derek and Hayley protected themselves and others from the coronavirus by wearing masks, which California Governor Gavin Newsom made mandatory for public outings on June 18.  

As of Tuesday, there have been over 268K confirmed COVID-19 cases in Los Angeles leading to 6,515 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins University.

Hough and Erbert’s street sighting came four days after publicly addressing whether or not they were planning on getting married on their vlog, Derek & Hayley x Dayley Life.

‘100% I have thought [he’ll never propose],’ groaned the former pageant princess, who’s got a folder full of wedding ideas.

‘That thought has crossed through my mind and he says that he is waiting for me to propose to him. And I’m like, “Then we’re never getting married.”‘  

The Utah-born Mormon – who boasts 8.7M social media followers – replied: ‘Here’s the deal. If we get 500K subscribers on YouTube then for our 500K suscriber celebration video might be a proposal. Make it happen!’

The Disney Family Singalong couple originally met in 2014 after she joined Derek and his younger sister Julianne’s Move Live On Tour.

Hough previously romanced India de Beaufort, Shannon Elizabeth, Cheryl Cole, Lauren Conrad, and Julianne’s bridesmaid Nina Dobrev for six weeks in 2013. 

Speaking of which, the Holidays with the Houghs star directed the 32-year-old Emmy-winning choreographer’s postponed music video for her song Transform, which she finally released on Sunday.

‘I was about to release this video, when the most tragic loss of my life abruptly occurred. Time passed, and I felt I had missed my window to release this video,’ Julianne explained on Instagram.

‘I’m excited to share this video with all of you, a year later, to hopefully bring some light, color, and fun to the world right now. This is a Transformative time for all of us.’

The six-time Mirror Ball Trophy winner replaced Len Goodman as judge of the 29th season of Dancing With the Stars – airing Mondays on ABC – alongside Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli.

Derek also scored a recurring role as Miss Jen’s (Kate Reinders) ex-boyfriend Zack in the upcoming second season of Disney+ spin-off High School Musical: The Musical – The Series.

Meanwhile, Hayley previously served back-up dancer duties for Hough’s World of Dance colleague JLo, Paula Abdul, Wiz Khalifa, Fall Out Boy, and Carrie Underwood.
