Gleb Savchenko and Brooks Nader’s romance may have fizzled out, but the Dancing With the Stars pro still has the model on his mind — and in his heart.
Eagle-eyed fans were quick to speculate that the duo had reunited after noticing a similar background in a TikTok shared by Nader, 28, on Thursday, October 31, and a video Savchenko, 41, uploaded the following day. In both clips, a leafy green plant hung over their right shoulder.
Days later, DWTS pros Ezra Sosa and Rylee Arnold attempted to set the record straight on the pair’s relationship status. “Confronting Gleb about his relationship with Brooks,” the TikTok posted to Sosa’s account on Monday, November 4, read.
“We’re going to have him tell us the truth here,” Arnold, 19, said, while showing a fan video speculating about the background of Savchenko and Nader’s videos. As they took a break from practicing in the DWTS studio, Sosa, 23, and Arnold proceeded to gesture for Savchenko to join them on the floor.
“Will you explain this to me?” Arnold asked Savchenko, while showing him the TikTok. “That is Brooks’ house!”
Savchenko took the phone into his hands to get a closer look at the images. “No, it’s not the same place,” he replied. “She has, like, a light in the background. My house is exactly the same. It’s a new building. And one of those cheap ass, you know, remodel houses.”

Arnold shrieked in response to Savchenko’s claim, while Sosa doubled-down on the idea that the TikToks were filmed in the same location. “Yeah, but you guys have the same house,” Sosa said.
Savchenko continued to note that it’s “not the same house.” He added, “Totally different house. Look, that plant — I’ve never seen that plant before. I have had my plant, I’ve had it for a long time. I actually brought it from my old place to my new place.”
After debating the homes’ similarities, the TikTok cut to a clip of Savchenko sending a message to Nader. “Brooks, if you’re watching, I miss you,” he said.
Arnold interjected to reference Savchenko’s alleged breakup text to Nader, adding, “You were the one who texted her, Gleb! You were the one who ended it.”
After Savchenko admitted that he “did” call it quits with Nader, Arnold asked why he would split if he missed her.
“Stop recording, I might tell you,” Savchenko said before standing up and leaving the conversation. Sosa didn’t seem to get any more answers, captioning the clip, “I still have so many questions.”
The TikTok caught the attention of several DWTS fans and Nader herself – who clapped back at Savchenko. “Never been to his house but I’ve never heard of matching houses …? Hmmm,” she commented.
While Savchenko and Nader competed on season 33 of DWTS, Us Weekly confirmed that the twosome were “hooking up.” As their romance heated up, the duo got matching tattoos. But after the pair got eliminated from the competition, an insider shared that Savchenko “ended things” with Nader, who was “continuing to live her best life.”
