Brooks Nader is spilling all the tea when it comes to her whirlwind romance with former Dancing With the Stars pro Gleb Savchenko — and it sounds like things got messy fast.
During a candid appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen on Thursday, December 18, the model and reality star revealed just how quickly sparks flew between her and Savchenko after they were paired together on DWTS. According to Nader, 28, they began “being intimate day one,” a confession that left both host Andy Cohen and fellow guest Erika Jayne stunned.
“Like, rehearsal?” Jayne, 54, asked.
“The day I met him — the meet and greet,” Nader clarified.
Fresh off a divorce at the time, Nader admitted she wasn’t exactly looking for a slow burn. “I was newly divorced and I told them, ‘Give me the hottest, douchiest guy,’ and they gave me Gleb,” she said. “I felt as though there was so much sexual tension on the first day we met, that it would just get worse and worse.”
Rather than letting the tension linger, she decided to cut straight to the chase. “I just wanted to … let’s see what we’re working with! I was like, ‘Let’s just get that over with.’”
Cohen couldn’t help but joke, telling her, “Obviously, it was good…”
“It was great,” Nader shot back. “Dancers know how to … I’ve heard that from a lot of people and it’s true. Highly recommend. Don’t marry the dancer, but f*** the dancer.”
Despite the fiery beginning, Nader described the relationship itself as anything but smooth. “It was a disaster,” she said, calling the romance “bad.”
When Cohen asked whether Savchenko ever apologized amid cheating rumors, Nader’s answer raised eyebrows. “No, he, like, sued me,” she claimed.
Nader and Savchenko met during DWTS season 33 in 2024 and were reportedly in an on-and-off relationship for nearly a year before calling it quits in April 2025. Around that time, a source told People that Nader suspected Savchenko of cheating — allegations he has repeatedly denied.
“I’m not a cheater,” Savchenko told E! News. “I’m actually a family guy. I’m a relationship guy. I’m not a f***boy who goes around and goes on all these dates. I’m not even on dating apps.”
For her part, Nader hasn’t held back. During a previous WWHL appearance, she labeled Savchenko “a completely creepy person,” adding, “I had no chance. I was f***ed, literally and physically, from the start when I went on that show.”
Safe to say, this DWTS pairing didn’t end with a mirrorball — but it did leave behind plenty of drama.
