The poetic Feeling that flooded their fanbase and fellow dancers surpassed the emotions of pure joy and awe at this memorable milestone moment. At 38, Derek is preparing for what may be the most rewarding part of his life: becoming a father. And here is 30-year-old Hayley, glimmering and glowing, gracefully embracing motherhood with love. The news immediately exploded on social media, and the comments were quickly flooded by other members of the Dancing With the Stars family with messages of congratulations and tears of joy. "Truly, no words can match this blessing!!!! Auntie Britt is ready! Love you both so much." Fellow dancer Rylee Arnold chimed in, "I'm crying!!!!! This is the best news ever!!!! Congrats you two I couldn't be happier."

The announcement comes after similar vague family innuendos earlier this year, when Derek's sister, Julianne Hough, shared that she was very ready to become an aunt, words that now read like a beautiful prelude to this joyful news. For a couple who met onstage and have been making magic there for years, this baby is a dance of love, life, and legacy. With Derek and Hayley getting ready to embark on the steps of their own rhythm of life, fans all over are rooting for them in the corner and waiting to see exactly how they'll do it, one beautiful step at a time.
