Brooks Nader Spills on Sleeping With Ex Gleb Savchenko on “Day One”

Brooks Nader didn’t waste any time. The model and reality star revealed she got intimate with her former Dancing With the Stars partner Gleb Savchenko the very first day they met.

Appearing on Watch What Happens Live December 18, Nader told Andy Cohen and guest Erika Jayne that the sparks flew immediately.

“Like, rehearsal?” Jayne asked.

“No,” Nader said. “The meet and greet.”

The chemistry, she explained, was instant—and she wanted to clear the air early.

“I was newly divorced and told them, ‘Give me the hottest, douchiest guy.’ They gave me Gleb,” she said. “There was so much sexual tension from the start, I figured it would only get worse. Let’s just see what we’re working with.”

Cohen asked if it was good.

“It was great,” Nader replied. “Dancers know how to… I’ve heard it from a lot of people. Highly recommend. Don’t marry the dancer, but f*** the dancer.”

The romance itself, however, was short-lived. Nader later called it “bad” and “a disaster.” The pair dated for nearly a year before splitting in April 2025, with Nader reportedly ending things.

Tension followed the breakup. Nader accused Savchenko of cheating on her during an episode of her reality show Love Thy Nader, a claim he denied. “I’m not a cheater,” he told E! News. “I’m actually a family guy. I’m a relationship guy. I’m not a f***boy. I’m not even on dating apps.”

In a statement to Page Six, Savchenko said he was blindsided by the split. “The last communication I received from her was a text on April 6 asking to speak,” he said. “I called her today in response, but she has not replied.”

Looking back on their DWTS run, Nader didn’t hold back. “He is a completely creepy person,” she said on WWHL in September. “I had no chance at having good choreo because he was humping me the whole time.”

The DWTS pairing ignited fast, burned bright, and fizzled just as quickly—Brooks Nader doesn’t sugarcoat the story.
