Julianne Hough is speaking out after her sister-in-law Hayley Erbert was hospitalized following a dance performance.

In a new social media post, the Dancing With the Stars co-host asked for support after Erbert underwent an emergency craniectomy.

"Please pray and send all your love, healing and light to Hayley and Derek," she wrote on her Instagram Story Thursday. "Thank you from the depths of our families hearts."

Earlier in the day, Derek announced that his wife was hospitalized after becoming "disoriented" during a Symphony of Dance tour performance on Wednesday.

"At the end of last night's tour performance in Washington, D.C., my wife Hayley became disoriented and was taken to the hospital," Derek wrote on Instagram Thursday. "She was diagnosed with a cranial hematoma from a burst blood vessel and required an emergency craniectomy. She is in stable condition."

"I want to thank the first responders and medical personnel who have cared for and continue to care for her," he added. "I ask for your prayers and positivity during this time."

Soon after sharing his wife's health scare, the Hough family received hundreds of supportive messages from friends and fans — including Nina Dobrev, Witney Carson, Lindsay Arnold and Emma Slater.

"Sending all my love to you both for a full and speedy recovery!" Brooks Laich wrote in the comments section. Alfonso Ribeiro added, "Sending you all the love I have in my soul. Prayers for a speedy recovery."
