Brooks Nader recently shared details about her romantic involvement with Gleb Savchenko, revealing that both were intimate on the very first day they met. The 28-year-old model and reality star made this revelation during an appearance on “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen” on December 18, 2024. The couple had been paired together on the popular dance competition show, “Dancing With the Stars.”
Nader explained that their chemistry was undeniable from the outset. “The day I met him—the meet and greet,” she recalled. She described the initial connection as so intense that she felt it was necessary to address the tension right away. “I was newly divorced and I told them, ‘Give me the hottest, douchiest guy,’ and they gave me Gleb,” Nader added.
The model admitted that she wanted to “get that out of the way” early on, stating, “I just wanted to … let’s see what we’re working with!” According to Nader, the experience was enjoyable, emphasizing that “dancers know how to…” and recommending a romantic encounter with a dancer but advising against marriage.
Savchenko, 42, responded to their connection during an interview with Us Weekly prior to the start of “Dancing With the Stars” season 33. He expressed his appreciation for their chemistry, saying, “We have a good energy… and also, you know, looking like that. She’s hot.”
Despite the initial sparks, Nader and Savchenko’s relationship lasted nearly a year before they decided to part ways in April 2024. A source close to the couple indicated that Nader was the one who ended the relationship. In a candid moment on her reality show, “Love Thy Nader,” she accused Savchenko of infidelity.
Savchenko responded to these claims by stating, “I’m not a cheater. I’m actually a family guy. I’m a relationship guy.” He further expressed surprise upon learning through an article that Nader had ended their relationship, mentioning that their last communication was a text from her on April 6, 2024, asking to discuss matters.
Nader did not hold back during her September 2024 appearance on “WWHL,” where she referred to Savchenko as a “completely creepy person.” She described her experience on the show as challenging, saying, “I had no chance at having good choreo because he was humping me the whole time.”
As both Nader and Savchenko navigate their careers post-relationship, their time together on “Dancing With the Stars” remains a vivid chapter in their lives, marked by both passion and controversy.
