Brooks Nader, who competed on Dancing With the Stars with her ex-boyfriend, Gleb Savchenko, talked about their relationship during the show. On the May 12 episode of the Chicks in the Office podcast, she shared that she had a clear idea of what she wanted in a partner.
"Day 1, when I met him, I was like, 'Oh this is perfect.' This isn't going to go anywhere serious. I know exactly what I'm going to do here, and it's going to be like a bit... Day 2, I was in love, and it wasn't a bit anymore, and I was actually really really into him."

Nader joined the competition amid her separation from ex-husband Billy Haire. She was married to him for four years. Brooks Nader said that, at the time, she asked for "the hottest, douchiest guy" as her DWTS partner. She said:
"You can quote me. I said, "I want the hottest douchiest guy.' I'm newly divorced. I'm in Europe, I'm on a boat. Give me the douchiest hottest."
Brooks Nader and Glen Savchenko initially sparked romance rumors after their season on Dancing With the Stars premiered in September 2024. According to US Magazine, their romance fizzled out after they were voted off the competition, but rekindled it when they returned for the DWTS season 33 finale in December last year.
However, in April 2025, the outlet reported that they split up again, with Nader reportedly the one to break things off.
Brooks Nader's sister, Grace Ann, confirms that her past relationship with Glen Savchenko wasn't a showmance
For anyone who had doubts whether Brooks Nader and Glen Savchenko's relationship was real or fake during their Dancing With the Stars season 33 appearance, her sister, Grace Ann Nader, had firsthand accounts to share.
During the May 12 episode of the Chicks In the Office podcast, Grace Ann confirmed to the listeners that her sister and Savchenko's romance was a "very real" one.
"I can tell you firsthand, every time I visited Brooks' trailer, the trailer was shaking every single time... I never wanted to go in there. I was always knocking. He was always at our house, it was just a lot. So, I think it was very real."
Brooks was shocked to learn what her sister knew then, and joked, but also defended herself and her choices. She replied:
"The trailer thing was probably why we didn't win... But what's a girl to do? I was newly single."
However, neither Grace Ann nor their other sisters, Sarah Jane and Mary Holland, were reportedly surprised that Brooks Nader's romance lasted longer than a usual rebound. Grace Ann said that when their sisters met Gleb, they all thought that it's "gonna be a headache and a whirlwind." They thought that the relationship would "go on for months and months and months," which it did.
Gleb Savchenko and the Sports Illustrated model reportedly got matching tattoos during their on-again, off-again relationship. E! News reported all about it on October 7, 2024, after they were spotted getting tattoos in Los Angeles during a PDA-packed outing.
Brooks Nader is reportedly still legally married to Billy Haire. Meanwhile, Gleb Savchenko shares two kids with his ex-wife, Elen Samodanova.
