The upcoming premiere of Dancing With the Stars Season 33, it’s inevitable that dating rumors would start circulating among the cast members.
Past seasons have seen various on-screen partners spark off-show romances, fueling speculation about new pairings.
Recently, there were rumors about a possible romance between model Brooks Nader and her professional dance partner Gleb Savchenko. Their interactions during interviews and on social media appeared quite flirtatious.
Additionally, photos emerged of the DWTS partners appearing affectionate in New York City around the time of the Season 33 cast announcement on Good Morning America.
Given Gleb’s recent breakup and Brooks’s unclear relationship status, speculation about their dating status has intensified. As the DWTS Season 33 premiere approaches, many dance partners have shared videos showcasing their practice sessions and playful moments.
Brooks recently posted a video where Gleb, dressed in a white T-shirt and jeans, sits in a swiveling chair. To the tune of Emma Stone’s famous “Let’s Dance,” Gleb rolls his chair towards the camera while Brooks, sitting on his lap, lip-syncs to the song.
In another TikTok video, Brooks and Gleb are seen dancing to Megan Thee Stallion’s “Star.” Gleb lifts Brooks and helps her perform a flip, giving a preview of their upcoming routines.
As expected, fans have speculated about a possible romance, with some suggesting they might be a couple. Comments like “They have to be tgt” and “Couple vibes” have appeared, while others have inquired if they are dating.
Responding to these rumors, Gleb addressed the speculation in comments to Page Six on Friday. He clarified that while Brooks is “great” and they share “amazing” chemistry, there is no romantic involvement between them.
Page Six also noted that Brooks’s representatives did not respond to requests for comments regarding the romance rumors.
Gleb ended his relationship with Elena Belle in March after nearly three years together. He was previously married to dancer Elena Samosanova from 2006 to 2020, and they have two daughters: Olivia, 13, and Zlata, 7.
In May, there were reports about Brooks and her husband of nearly four years, Billy Haire, getting a divorce. Additionally, Us Weekly recently reported that Brooks was seen with retired NFL star Tom Brady at Michael Rubin’s Fourth of July party, but no confirmation has been made about their relationship.
According to Gleb’s recent statements, he and Brooks remain just friends and dance partners as they compete for the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy.
