Brooks Nader Slams “Creepy” Ex Gleb Savchenko After His DWTS Comments

Brooks Nader is setting the record straight — and she’s not holding back.

The model and Dancing with the Stars Season 33 alum recently addressed pointed comments made by her former dance partner and ex-boyfriend, Gleb Savchenko. During a segment on Watch What Happens Live, Nader was asked about Gleb’s recent remarks, where he seemed to subtly insult her dancing abilities while praising his new Season 34 partner, Aladia Baldwin.

Without hesitation, Brooks responded, “I have nothing to say about him. He’s a completely creepy person.”

Her comments come in response to Gleb’s interview with People magazine, where he expressed excitement about dancing with a new partner:

“Finally, I have a partner that I can go out there and dance with and really enjoy, and not try to figure out the routine of like, ‘Okay, let me just hide all of your minuses and bring out the pluses.’”

To Nader, this wasn’t just a jab at her talent — it was a reminder of a toxic dynamic she says plagued their entire run on the show. “I had no chance at having good choreography,” she claimed, going so far as to say, “he was humping me the whole time,” alluding to a highly uncomfortable and unprofessional rehearsal environment.

Though E! News reached out to Gleb’s team for comment, no official response has been given.

Their off-camera relationship was equally turbulent. The two began dating shortly after being eliminated from the competition in October, reconciled briefly in November, and officially ended things by April. While their on-screen chemistry may have looked convincing, Brooks now makes it clear that the partnership was far from healthy.

In a post-MeToo entertainment world where women are speaking up about misconduct and manipulation, Brooks’ candid comments add to an ongoing dialogue about boundaries — even in the world of dance.

For now, she’s moved on. And as for Gleb? Well, he may have a “new partner he can enjoy dancing with,” but the past is clearly not as gracefully choreographed as it once seemed.
