How Julianne Hough and Brooks Laich Are Spending Their First Holidays as a Married Couple (Exclusive)

The dancing pro and her NHL star husband are keeping the holidays simple this year.

With how stressful holiday travel can be, sometimes the best plans are the ones not made.

Julianne Hough recently spoke with ET's Keltie Knight at Disney World, where she's performing with 98 Degrees for ABC's The Wonderful World of Disney: Magical Holiday Celebration and the 29-year-old actress revealed that she and her new husband, NHL star Brooks Laich, will keep things chill for Christmas this year.

"This is our first Christmas as a married couple, and I think we're just honestly just going to be home together," the dancing pro explained. "We've always said that, between the two families, we'll always have a year in between for ourselves."
