Brooks Nader<\/strong><\/a> is setting the record straight about her ex-boyfriend Gleb Savchenko<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s Dancing With the Stars<\/em> <\/a>exit \u2014 and she\u2019s making it clear she had nothing to do with it.<\/p>\n The drama began after Gleb, 41, revealed that he wasn\u2019t asked back for season 34 of the long-running ABC competition. His firing came months after he struck up a romance with Brooks, 28, during season 33 \u2014 but speculation quickly swirled that their relationship and breakup played a role in his departure.<\/p>\n A source previously told The Sun<\/em><\/a>, \u201cGleb was fired from Dancing With the Stars<\/em> for a number of reasons but Brooks accusing him of cheating was the final straw.\u201d<\/p>\n While Gleb has denied cheating, Brooks is also refusing to take the blame.<\/p>\n Gleb Savchenko and Brooks Nader<\/p>\n <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n On August 20, the model was spotted in Los Angeles wearing a hot pink dress while out with her sisters when a photographer pressed her for answers. When asked, \u201cWhat do you think about Gleb saying you got him fired from Dancing With the Stars<\/em>,\u201d Brooks had a blunt response: \u201cHe got himself fired, probably.\u201d<\/p>\n That one-liner may just be the final word on the subject from Brooks, who has made it clear she\u2019s focused on her own life, not her ex\u2019s.<\/p>\n Brooks first shot to fame after winning the 2019 Sports Illustrated<\/em> Swim Search, later landing the coveted cover in 2023. When she signed on for DWTS<\/em> season 33 in 2024, she was paired with Gleb, and the two quickly made headlines for their offscreen chemistry.<\/p>\n \u201cWho wouldn\u2019t want to make out with him?\u201d Brooks once teased when asked about their rumored fling. Their whirlwind romance, however, was far from picture-perfect. After attending multiple L.A. events together in September, the couple faced rocky moments and briefly split following their elimination in October. At the time, a source told Us Weekly<\/em> that Gleb \u201cgot way too comfortable\u201d and was spending so much time at Brooks\u2019 home that it raised concern among her family. The two reconciled shortly after but fizzled out months later when things failed to get serious.<\/p>\n This wasn\u2019t Brooks\u2019 first high-profile romance. She was previously married to New York businessman Billy Haire<\/strong> for nearly four years before divorcing in 2023. Since then, she\u2019s been embracing single life.<\/p>\n \u201cBefore Gleb, she was married, so she\u2019s never really had a good chunk of time to get to know herself as a single woman,\u201d a source told Life & Style<\/em><\/span><\/a>. \u201cShe\u2019s got a lot of plans for the summer; she wants to travel with her friends and just take advantage of all that the world has to offer.\u201d<\/p>\n And while dating isn\u2019t at the top of her priority list right now, Brooks isn\u2019t ruling it out completely. \u201cShe definitely wants to date someone more high-profile than Gleb next, because she gets so much attention. It\u2019s intimidating for most guys,\u201d the insider explains. \u201cShe needs someone on her level to make things more even.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
