Gleb Savchenko Allegedly Breaks Up with Brooks Nader Following 'DWTS' Elimination

Well, that was fast. Dancing With the Stars pro Gleb Savchenko and Brooks Nader have reportedly called it quits after a whirlwind romance. Gleb pulled the plug on their relationship shortly after the couple was eliminated from the popular dancing competition.

“Gleb ended things, but Brooks is continuing to live her best life,” a source told Us Weekly in an article published on Friday, October 25.

Brooks, 28, also posted a TikTok video on Thursday, October 24, that had fans wondering if the couple had broken up. The model used the viral TikTok sound of Miles Teller in the movie Whiplash.

“I don’t think we should be together,” Miles, 37, could be heard saying. “I’ve thought about it a lot, and this is what’s going to happen. I’m going to keep pursuing what I’m pursuing and because of that it’s going to take up more and more of my time and I’m not going to be able to spend as much time with you.”

Brooks, who wore all black, along with a cowboy hat, added text to the video that read, “When he’s breaking up with me but I never knew we were dating.”

Shortly after Brooks and Gleb, 41, were announced as partners on season 33 of Dancing With the Stars, rumors began to swirl that sparks were flying off the dance floor as well. The two seemed to lean into the rumors by posting flirty TikTok content. Before Brooks and Gleb’s week 2 performance on September 24, a source exclusively told Life & Style that they were spotted making out backstage.

“Brooks also had her arm around Gleb,” the insider said. “He looked very comfortable with her that way. They look like they are definitely a thing. It’s very clear something is going on with them.”

When Brooks was later asked about the kiss, she played coy with her answer.

“Who wouldn’t want to make out with Gleb?” Brooks told E! News in an interview published on September 27.

Despite their makeout session, Brooks maintained she was still single.

She continued, “Everything that you see, like, online and on TikTok or whatever is real, there’s nothing fake about it. I’m not a fake girl. We’re a dance couple for now. We’re not in a relationship. I have so many mixed feelings about it. I’m newly single, so we’re having a really nice time.”

When the Sports Illustrated model and professional dancer were eliminated during the October 15 episode, Gleb couldn’t help but gush about his time on the show with Brooks.

“I want to thank you for an amazing season, it was so unexpected. I had a blast working with you,” Gleb said to Brooks. “You are super talented and I love you.”

However, a separate source told Life & Style that the supposed romance between the two was all for show.

“They’re hanging out and hooking up, but no one thinks it’s anything serious,” the insider revealed on October 22. “It has more to do with seeking fame and keeping their names in the headlines.”

The source continued, “The truth is that they’re massive divas and others around them – including the other pro dancers – think they’re fakes and phonies. On the other hand, producers didn’t discourage it because in their minds any publicity is good for the show.”
