On Sunday, December 8, the accomplished dancer and former "America's Got Talent" judge posted a nostalgic throwback photo to Instagram. The image featured him alongside three of his sisters—Marabeth, Sharee, and Katherine. With a playful caption, Derek declared himself the "Boss man since 1985," adding hashtags like "#whickerthrone #sundayphotoalbum #ruleinpajamas" and throwing in a touch of '80s nostalgia with a glow filter set to 100. But, of course, Julianne, 31, couldn’t resist chiming in with her own witty remark.
Julianne Strikes Back with Humor
In the comments section, Julianne playfully joked, "That's cause I wasn't born yet." Derek, ever the quick-witted sibling, shot back, "You were in the picture. You just didn’t make the cut." Talk about sibling banter at its finest! Fans couldn’t get enough of the playful exchange, rushing to leave their own comments. One fan remarked, "This family was born gorgeous, talented, kind, and full of love!!" Another added, "I can see who’s who still in this photo, but you're all just grown up now. Julianne needs to be photoshopped in." It’s clear that Derek and Julianne's playful teasing is a cherished part of their relationship, and their fans absolutely adore it.

It’s no secret that Derek and Julianne share a close bond, and their playful banter is a testament to that. Their relationship isn’t just about teasing; it’s about mutual respect, love, and support. In fact, Julianne has often praised her brother in her own posts. In one memorable Instagram post, she shared a heartfelt message: "My brother, my best friend, my creative soundboard, and the person who never puts a dish in the dishwasher! Wishing you the best on your tour, I miss you so much!" She even joked about Derek taking notes on how to be a better TV judge by watching "America’s Got Talent." It’s this kind of camaraderie that makes their sibling dynamic so special.
A Bond Forged in Childhood
Their connection goes way back. As Derek revealed in an exclusive interview with Closer Weekly, "We moved to England at a young age. She was 10, I was 13, and so we basically had to look out for each other. We were like a team growing up, more mature then than we probably are now. Now we are more like siblings, more like kids where we tease each other." He continued, "She lived with me while her house was being done, I lived with her while my house was being done, so we are just best friends. It’s great." The siblings may be household names in the entertainment world, but they remain grounded and down-to-earth. "We just share and talk. We are very like-minded, we have very similar vocabularies as far as what we want to achieve in this life and how we want to serve in this life and how we want to make an impact—we are just like-minded in that way," Derek said.

For Derek and Julianne, their relationship is more than just sibling rivalry. It’s about being there for each other, checking in, and ensuring they’re both in the right emotional and mental state.
