Gleb Savchenko Addresses Dating Rumors With Brooks Nader

As they prepare for the season premiere, their playful interactions captured in TikTok videos have led to fan speculation about a potential romance.

Now, Gleb Savchenko is setting the record straight and addressing the dating rumors.

Since the announcement of Gleb and Brooks’ pairing, the dance partners have shared playful moments in the model’s TikTok videos.

In one clip, Brooks is seen sitting on the Russian choreographer’s lap and spinning around. She has also offered a peek at their synchronized dance moves and even showcased some provocative moves not typically seen in the ballroom.

Gleb joined in by lip-syncing to viral TikTok sounds about making Brooks nervous, while Brooks responded with her own lip-syncing, referring to Gleb as “the cute boy with the white jacket and the thick accent.”

Of course, this led to speculation that the two are now a couple.

Brooks was previously married to advertising executive Billy Haire from 2019 to 2022. She has recently been rumored to be dating Greek Prince Constantine Alexios, whom she brought as her date to Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey’s wedding in June. However, the two have not been seen together since.

The “Dancing With the Stars” choreographer, who has children Olivia and Zlata with his ex-wife Elena Samodanova, was last romantically linked to model Elena Belle. She was his date at Nikki Garcia and Artem Chigvintsev’s wedding in February 2023, but they stopped sharing photos together later that year.

While the two are seemingly single, Gleb Savchenko told Page Six that while the model is “great” and they have “amazing” chemistry in the ballroom, his relationship with Brooks is strictly platonic.

Brooks previously spoke on her chemistry with Gleb, admitting, “I think that we have a really good connection as people, which is helpful on the dance floor because we are in sync, and we move as one. He’s obviously a great guy and he’s such a great teacher. I met him two weeks ago, but we’ll see what happens over the next few months.”

Brooks is set to compete on “Dancing With the Stars,” and it turns out that she is already quite familiar with the dance floor.

“I used to dance in high school, so being able to dive back into something that I missed a lot is so much fun,” the model said, per First For Women. “My partner, Gleb, is incredible and we have a great connection. I’m totally winning.”

“This is something that is so different from the dance that I grew up with, though,” she added. “There are so many technical sides to ballroom dancing, the tango, and the cha-cha, so I’m loving learning all about that. My first dance is [going to be] the tango, and you’ve got to stay level. You can’t move your hips, and I just want to move my hips, so there are little things like that, those little nuances, that I get stuck on.”

“There are a couple of Olympic athletes in there and they’re pretty good, obviously,” she said. “And then there’s Chandler [Kinney], a Disney star, and she’s been dancing since she was a 3-year-old. So I’m, like, ‘Okay, nothing’s going to be easy about this.’ But we love a challenge.”

This season’s competitors include “Real Housewives” star Phaedra Parks, former NFL player and two-time Super Bowl champion Danny Amendola, and ex-“Bachelor” star Joey Graziadei.

Two Olympians –rugby player Ilona Maher and gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik are also set to compete alongside actress Chandler Kinney and Anna Delvey, the infamous “fake heiress” whose financial crimes and extravagant lifestyle inspired the Netflix series “Inventing Anna.”

The competition kicks off on Tuesday, September 17 at 8 p.m. ET.
