After Gleb Savchenko expressed his deep fondness for his Dancing With the Stars partner Brooks Nader, he further revealed his feelings for her at the end of their time on the show’s 33rd season. Nader thanked Savchenko for guiding her through the season, expressing gratitude for their time together in the ballroom. In return, Savchenko gushed and thanked Nader, calling the season amazing and unexpected, and expressing his love for her.
Savchenko’s affectionate words for Nader were a continuation of the praise he shared for her on Harry Jowsey’s “Boyfriend Material” podcast. He commended Nader for their strong bond and her initiative in starting TikTok videos. When asked if he was in love with Nader, Savchenko responded with uncertainty. The episode also featured a pre-recorded video of Nader and Savchenko preparing for their salsa routine, dedicated to Nader’s sisters who supported her during her difficult divorce from ex-husband Billy Haire.
Sources revealed last month that Nader and Savchenko were “hooking up” but in a casual and fun way. They were described as being flirtatious from the beginning of rehearsals and enjoying each other’s company, without officially dating. Nader also expressed feeling an instant connection and chemistry with Savchenko, with whom she got a matching tattoo. Despite not choosing their partners on the show, Nader felt it was a sign that she was paired with Savchenko.
Dancing With the Stars airs on ABC and Disney+ on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET, with episodes available for streaming on Disney+ the following day. Nader and Savchenko’s journey on the show saw a strong bond formed between them, with gestures of gratitude and love exchanged between the pair. While their relationship was initially described as casual, it was evident that there was a deep connection and understanding between Nader and Savchenko as they navigated the challenges of the dance competition.
