Derek Hough’s Injury Could Sideline Him From ‘Dancing With The Stars’

Derek Hough‘s injuries from earlier this week could hamper his ability to continue dancing with celebrity partner Nastia Liukin on Dancing with the Stars.

Derek Hough’s Injuries

On Monday, Hough posted a picture of himself from the hospital bed, writing, “Just getting home from the hospital. Not the best of news. I’m in utter disbelief.”

“Long night in the ER with @derekhough nothing worse than seeing a fellow dancer get hurt especially your brother,” Ballas captioned a pic of him and Hough before noting that his girlfriend Britney Jean Carlson and Ballas’ father Corky were also there. “But he had me @bcjean and @corkyballas there by his side. #fam.”

During his trip to the hospital, Hough learned that he broke a toe, sprained his ankle and suffered ligament damage while rehearsing with Maria Menounos for DWTS‘s 10th Anniversary Special performance.

“It sucks. It’s unfortunate,” Ballas told E! News. “Hopefully he’s going to be OK. The MRI results will come in [today] probably and we’ll know more, but we’re just praying that everything’s OK.”

Since Hough is out of commission for the time being, Liukin is training for next week’s dances with pro dancer Sasha Farber

“Nastia, my heart goes out to her, just passed midway in the season, having to change pros,” fellow pro Sharna Burgess told E!. “For her to now have to change pros, it’s like changing a language, changing a connection and changing trust. It’s really difficult. She’s incredibly talented, I know she will handle it beautifully, but it’s not fun.”
