‘And know that every decision I’m going to make is going to be from here and that it still doesn’t mean it’s going to be this perfect life.’

‘It kind of brought me back to the joyful, playful side, versus being so serious,’ Hough told E! News. 

‘Sometimes, when you’re intentional, you can get a little bit tunnel vision, and so, I kind of was like, “You know what? I’m just gonna be playful and fun.”‘ 

And when questioned what she is looking for in a partner, she jokingly quipped, ‘Someone super H๏τ.’
