Julianne Hough Posts About Being 'Stuck, Depressed, Anxious' Amid Fallout From Brooks Laich Split

Poor Julianne Hough!

The talented former Dancing with the Stars celeb is going through it right now after her split from husband Brooks Laich, and she’s not afraid to post about the fallout on her Instagram account.

On Monday, the 31-year-old dancer and performer posted several memes to her Stories, indirectly opening up about her feelings amid her divorce from the former NHL star. With one meme, Derek Hough‘s famous sis cryptically noted about “having an emotional breakdown,” while a second jokingly read, “When I don’t answer messages but I’m sharing memes.”

More to the point regarding her current state, a third one shared a quote from Heal director Kelly Noonan Gores which noted in part feelings of being “stuck, depressed, anxious, or hopeless.” As you can see (below), that post at least took a hopeful turn by the end of it, suggesting work ahead to help those less fortunate:

Selfless acts do wonders for all — very true!!!

But beyond the posts themselves, Hough’s mental state and current outlook are clearly being affected by her major recent breakup. She’s laying low with family in Hawaii now after having spent much of quarantine time over the last few months alone in Los Angeles and away from Laich. Clearly, she’s had considerable time to think and reflect — and appears to have been doing so — during this rare period of downtime in her otherwise usually hectic schedule.

It’s interesting, too, because her (above) reference to sharing memes but not responding to messages appears to at least have some truth to it. As you may recall, an insider spoke to Us Weekly about the Grease Live! star’s mental state a few weeks ago, revealing then that she was not answering calls or texts from close friends, and adding:

“She’s not in a good place. She wants people to look at her and feel empathetic toward her.”

Yikes…

Whatever the case, it’s clear the star is having an understandably rough time after splitting from her hockey-playing former beau. As you’ll recall, the pair was married back in July 2017, and then first sparked split rumors back in December of last year when Hough was spotted in public without her wedding ring.

Here’s hoping Julianne can get back on track mentally amid all these changes in her life — and not to mention the continued isolation and uncertainty of a mid-pandemic quarantine.
