Dancing with the Stars alumnus and America's Got Talent judge Julianne Hough married Canadian NHL hockey player Brooks Laich in 2017.

In an interview for Women's Health's naked strength issue, Hough revealed details of their marriage.


The dancer, actress and singer shared coming out to her husband a few months into their marriage.

"I [told him], 'You know I'm not straight, right?' And he was like, 'I'm sorry, what?' I was like, 'I'm not. But I choose to be with you'."

Hough did not elaborate on how she defines her sexuality: lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, asexual or something else.

But she did share:

"I was connecting to the woman inside that doesn't need anything, versus the little girl that looked to him to protect me."

"I was like, 'Is he going to love this version of me?'"

But Hough added:

"The more I dropped into my most authentic self, the more attracted he was to me."

Hough shared the magazine cover on her Instagram.

Women's Health shared a glimpse of the photoshoot and article as well.


The magazine also shared other versions of the cover.


Laich also shared the cover on his Instagram with a message of support for his wife.

Hough commented on her husband's post with:

Of course, being social media, not everyone was supportive.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
