Julianne Hough<\/strong> is reflecting on how her path to stardom affected her older sisters in a rare comment about her family dynamic.<\/p>\n The 37-year-old entertainer rose to fame as a professional dancer on Dancing With the Stars, later adding singer, actress, and judge to her r\u00e9sum\u00e9. Alongside her brother Derek Hough<\/strong>, she built a career that put both siblings in the spotlight. But as Julianne revealed on the Tuesday, September 9 episode of the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast<\/a>, that level of recognition wasn\u2019t something her three older sisters experienced.<\/p>\n \u201cMy three older sisters, they all danced and sang and acted, and we were in a band,\u201d Julianne explained, noting that each of them pursued creative paths. One sister chose family life early, while another chased a career in country music in Nashville and the third hoped to become an actress.<\/p>\n Although Julianne stressed that her sisters support her and Derek\u2019s accomplishments, she admitted that there are complicated emotions attached to their different journeys. \u201cThere\u2019s no jealousy, but there is, like, a sadness that maybe there wasn\u2019t an opportunity for them to experience it. They\u2019re so happy, so, so, so happy. And look, they have great lives, and they love their life. But, you know it\u2019s a \u2018what if.\u2019 We had an opportunity that they didn\u2019t have. Yeah. And it\u2019s hard,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n \ud83c\udfac<\/strong> SIGN UP for Parade\u2019s Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox<\/strong><\/a> \ud83c\udfac<\/strong><\/p>\n The conversation turned to how the fame also created distance between Julianne and her siblings. While her career gave her and Derek common ground, it sometimes left their sisters feeling left out. \u201cThat was one of my biggest things was Derek and I were always so close because we had shared experiences,\u201d she explained. \u201cWhereas, like, we never wanted to share because we were afraid to hurt someone\u2019s feelings, but that just grew us further and further apart. Because we weren\u2019t sharing. They didn\u2019t feel included.\u201d<\/p>\n Even with those challenges, Julianne emphasized that her sisters continue to be proud of her. By speaking out, she hopes to shed light on the unseen sacrifices that often accompany success in the entertainment industry.<\/p>\n Outside of her family life, Julianne is also in the middle of personal change. She recently said goodbye to her longtime Hollywood Hills home<\/a>, where she had lived for more than a decade. Documenting the move on Instagram, Julianne shared her last day in the house \u2014 once shared with ex-husband Brooks Laich <\/strong>\u2014 surrounded by friends and family.<\/p>\n This story was originally reported by Parade<\/a> on Sep 9, 2025, where it first appeared in the News<\/a> section.
