DWTS’ Gleb gushes about his ‘love’ for Brooks Nader after elimination

Gleb Savchenko made it clear that he loves to be a dance partner Brooks Nader after they were eliminated in season 33 of Dancing with the stars.

During the Tuesday, October 15, episode, Brooks, 28, thanked Gleb, 41, for guiding her through the season in light of their elimination. “It was amazing and we had so much fun,” she told cohosts Alfonso Ribeiro And Julianne Hough.

Gleb then took it upon himself to express his deep feelings for the Louisiana native. “I want to thank you for a great season, it was so unexpected. I loved working with you,” he said. “You are super talented and I love you.”

The model and professional dancer quickly sparked romance rumors when they were announced as partners on the competition show. Not only did the duo collaborate on flirty TikTok content, but they continued to spark dating rumors after being spotted kissing multiple times.

The pair was seen ahead of the week 2 performance on September 24 making out backstage in the studio. “Brooks also had her arm around Gleb,” a source said exclusively Life and style. “He seemed so comfortable with her. They look like they’re definitely something. It is very clear that something is going on with them.”

While you’re talking to Life and style About the passionate moment, Brooks and Gleb claimed they kissed to “get into character” for the performance.

“It’s all about the dancing. It’s all about the performances,” Brooks said at the time. “We practiced so hard that we had to rehearse. We spend so many hours each day together. We have great chemistry, great relationship and friendship.”

Although the pair would not confirm they were in a romantic relationship, they continued to spark speculation when they kissed after dinner on September 29.

Just hours before their elimination, Gleb spoke about his dynamic with Brooks while appearing on the October 15 episode Harry Jowsey‘Boyfriend Material’ podcast. “We get along great, and she’s the one who started this whole thing, like, ‘Let’s do TikToks.’ She is so good at this,” the Russian native said.

Harry, 27, then asked Gleb if he was in love with Brooks, and he coyly replied: “I don’t know, maybe.”

Despite the consistent dating rumors, body language expert Darren Stanton previously said Gleb and Brooks lack “depth” and “intensity.”

“When he looks at a photo of them hugging, he has his hands on her waist, but she’s not moving at the same depth. He pulls her tight, but she doesn’t do the same to him,” said Darren on behalf of FriutySlots.com. “There’s not the same amount of intensity, which tells me there’s not a full, intense connection between them. It’s clearly two people having a bit of a laugh and working together on the show. They like each other and get along well, but I don’t see any real emotions there.”

However, he did say that the pair have a “great rapport.”

“(They) share a similar sense of humor and aren’t afraid to be in each other’s personal space – all of which are good signs for a strong dance partnership,” Darren continued. “However, when it comes to a deeper connection, I don’t think there is any mutual reciprocity between them.”
