Brooks Laich 'Didn't Want A Divorce' From Julianne Hough But He Had No Choice

Brooks Laich and Julianne Hough may have announced their split in May, but rumors were swirling before that. According to sources Brooks, “didn’t want a divorce” from Julianne Hough. “He felt as though he didn’t have a choice.” Julianne’s behavior really didn’t give Laich a choice on staying together. The former hockey player felt that Julianne, “pushed him towards a divorce because of the way she was acting.”

Brooks is not the one struggling with the split like Hough is though. “Hough’s friends think Brooks is an amazing, strapping dude. They aren’t sure why she let him go or messed it up,” an insider added. However, Brooks Laich is not moving on so quickly. “Brooks doesn’t have a special someone in his life right now romantically speaking,” according to sources.

Announcing Their Amicable Split
