In July 2017, the news came out that the couple reportedly walked down the aisle in a private ceremony in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. The couple began living a happy life in each other's company, but it was not all fairy tale ride in their married life as in August 2019, she revealed that she was not straight.

Wife Is Bisexual

On August 01, 2019, news reached all over the world that actress Julianne Hough is bisexual and not straight after she disclosed it herself. Asked about why she decided to come out now, 

The talented dancer replied:

"Why not now, I think we are living in the time where we are so divided and separated, and love is love."

When asked how she told her husband about her sexuality, she said she was quite afraid to open about that matter but eventually gathered up the courage to tell him. So, how did her Brooks react? 

Recalling on that matter, she revealed:

"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.'" 

Despite the shocking revelation, Hough continued to stay by his partner, and Julianne has often stated that being with her partner helped her find the strength to be her truest self.

In an interview, she told

 "I think there's a safety with my husband now that I'm unpacking all of this, and there's no fear of voicing things that I've been afraid to admit or that I've had shame or guilt about because of what I've been told or how I was raised."

It is a good thing Laich is a supportive husband and embraced the change of his partner or else who knows had he not been comfortable with it; their relationship might have taken a different turn. So far, the lovely duo do not share any children from their marriage.
