Julianne Hough Reveals Sisters' Sadness Over Hollywood Success Gap

Julianne Hough has opened up about the complex emotions within her family due to differing levels of fame and success among her siblings. While Julianne and her brother Derek have achieved significant recognition as performers, their three older sisters pursued various paths in the arts but did not reach the same level of stardom, leading to feelings of sadness rather than jealousy. Julianne highlighted that her sisters are happy with their lives but acknowledged a 'what if' regarding opportunities they did not have. The difference in experiences also created some distance in their relationships, as Julianne and Derek shared a unique bond through their careers, which sometimes left their sisters feeling excluded. Despite these challenges, the family has worked to maintain closeness, accepting that sharing achievements can sometimes be painful but necessary for connection. Overall, Julianne expressed admiration for her sisters' choices and the different kinds of fulfillment they have found outside Hollywood.
