Hough and Laich announced their separation after not quarantining together during the coronavirus pandemic.
Hough’s actions reportedly caused the divorce between the two, according to a report published in June by USWeekly.
“Her actions are what caused her divorce with Brooks,” a source told the outlet at the time. “Brooks did not want a divorce, but he felt pushed toward it because of how Julianne was behaving. But Brooks is not the one who is bummed now.”
Hough revealed she is not straight in August of 2019.
“I [told him], ‘You know I’m not straight, right?’ And he was like, ‘I’m sorry what?'” Hough revealed, according to People magazine. “I was like, ‘I’m not. But I choose to be with you.'”
