Celebrity mom of four Brooke Burke-Charvet chats with Vegas Magazine’s March issue. Brooke dishes on everything from motherhood to ‘Dancing with the Stars‘ to her wedding last August. Here’s a sneak peek at her interview:
Brooke discusses her love for Vegas and why she keeps coming back:
“It’s such an easy, great trip,” she says. “I used to gamble a lot here when I was younger. But now there is so much great dining. We don’t have great clubs in LA, and we like to dance. So when we do want to get out and get a little crazy, Vegas is the place to do that. It’s hard to do that at home.”
She reveals her admiration for former dance partner and cast member of DWTS Derek Hough:
“Derek and I have so much history, and he’s like family,” she says. “But aside from that, he is the most brilliant choreographer ever. He has this way of making his partners look amazing. I have a lot of compassion for everyone going through it because I did, but even more so for his partners, because I know how tough he is and how hard he works. He’ll always be my personal favorite, for sure. That’s not the politically correct answer, but that’s the truth!”
On balancing being a full-time host and a busy mom of four:
“I write out weekly calendars for everyone to refer to,” she says. “If I don’t write something down, somebody gets left behind. It requires a lot of organization, but I want everyone to have a full life, and I don’t want my kids to have to sacrifice when I have obligations that I have to attend to away from home. It’s a juggle, somewhere in that zone between complete chaos and balance.”
Brooke reflects on her wedding day to long-time love David this past August:
“My daughter Rain wanted me to be a Charvet,” she explains. “David planned everything, believe it or not. I was the bride who just had to show up with my beautiful dress. He is very detail-oriented, and very romantic-pretty darn magical. Everyone asks if it has changed anything, and even though we were completely committed to each other before, in a strange way it is a little bit more complete.”
