Derek Hough found it difficult to watch the 'I Am: Celine Dion' documentary. The 39-year-old professional dancer watched the show with his wife Hayley Erbert, 29, but admitted it was hard to see Celine's battle with Stiff Person Syndrome, particularly her seizures, as it reminded him of Hayley's health issues last year when she suffered a cranial hematoma from a burst blood vessel and required an emergency craniectomy. He shared a video on Instagram of the couple meeting Celine and wrote: "Watched Celine Dion’s new documentary, 'I Am Celine', last night.
"We were lucky enough to meet her a couple of years ago, even sing and dance with her a little. Haha Journalism for the curious Australian across politics, business, culture and opinion. "She’s a firecracker, we were so nervous meeting the queen.
Especially Hayley who is a diehard fan. "The documentary was incredibly powerful, showing Celine’s struggles with SPS but also her quirky and fun side. "A very difficult scene was seeing one of Celine’s SPS seizures play out in real time.
It was so hard to watch seeing her in pain like that. It also reminded me of Hayley’s seizure on the side of the stage a few months ago. I could barely re-watch.
"Celine is an absolute legend, with a unique and one in a billion voice. We’re so blessed to witness her talent in our lifetime. I pray she heals and returns to the stage she loves so much.
" Celine, 56, announced in 2022 that she had been diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome. SP.
