Dancing With Me – I Want to Be Your Partner

“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,” Ebert announced on Instagram, regarding her rejoining Symphony of Dance Tour. “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.

“I am so appreciative of the doctors who have supported me in my decision to dance again and my team of specialists that have been assembled to assure that my health and safety is priority,” she adds. “I cannot wait for you all to see this show! It was so meaningful when we opened last year and now, after everything that has happened, it is truly even more special.”

Check out the Erbert and Hough’s joint post below, which shows her inspiring comeback and return to rehearsals for Symphony of Dance Tour.

“[T]this made me cry,” shared Carrie Ann Inaba, Hough’s fellow DWTS judge. “So happy to see you safe and back doing what you love!” Denise Richards (ex-Shauna, Bold and the Beautiful), a former DWTS contestant shared, “I love this and the way you [Derek] held her head so gently taking care of her is really beautiful.”

“Amazing job babe!” posted Maksim Chmerkovskiy (ex-Anton, General Hospital). “So happy for you and can’t wait to see you shine!” GH’s Finola Hughes (Anna) wrote: “So happy to see this” followed by four heart emojis.

Other DWTS family members who posted heart-warming and supportive posts include Cheryl Burke, Peta Murgatroyd, Emma Slater, Daniella Karagach, Sharna Burgess, Amy Purdy (Hough’s celebrity partner from DWTS Season 18), and Jenna Johnson.
