Gleb Savchenko seems to be quite smitten with his Dancing With the Stars season 33 partner, Brooks Nader.
On a Tuesday, October 15, episode of Harry Jowsey ’s “Boyfriend Material” podcast, Savchenko, 41, said the No. 1 difference this year as to why he’s performing better is because he has a “great partner” in Nader, 28.
“We get along very well, and she’s the one that started this whole thing, like, ‘Let’s do TikToks.’ She’s so good with this,” the DWTS pro shared.
Jowsey then asked whether Savchenko is “in love,” and the ballroom pro replied, “I can’t hear you, what? … I don’t know, maybe.”

Jowsey then asked whether Savchenko and Nader have ever kissed, referencing a backstage video of them packing on the PDA.
“Yeah,” Savchenko says before breaking out into laughter. He then went on to praise Nader, noting that they’re just “doing us.”
“We’re just hanging out. We just have a good time. She’s amazing. I love being around her,” Savchenko gushed. “She’s got such great energy, great personality. Obviously, super hot."
Last month, a source exclusively revealed to Us Weekly that Savchenko and Nader are “hooking up.”
“It’s casual for now, and they’re both just having fun,” the source shared. “Brooks and Gleb have been very flirtatious from the beginning of rehearsals. They aren’t dating, but they’re enjoying spending time together and getting to know each other.”

Nader later gushed about how it was “a blessing” to be paired with Savchenko, adding that their chemistry on and off the dance floor “wasn’t something that [they] even had to build.”
“It was an instant connection and chemistry,” she told Us on Wednesday, October 9. “We don’t get to pick our partners, so we have no idea until we meet them that first day who it is. It was definitely a sign from some universe that I got paired with Gleb.”
The model also revealed that she and Savchenko got “matching” tattoos last week. Nader got the tattoo on her hip.

“I think [choosing the placement] was a joint effort,” she noted to Us. “You know, I wanted it to be some place that not everyone sees, and so that’s what we chose.”
Tonight, Nader and Savchenko — along with her three younger sisters, Mary, 25, Grace, 24 and Sarah, 22 — will perform in a salsa for Dedication Week of the ABC dance series.
On Sunday, October 13, Nader shared rehearsal footage and asked for “prayers” for Savchenko as he taught a dance to her siblings.
“Prayers for @glebsavchenko 🙏🏻teaching all 4 @Nader sisters this week’s routine for #dedicationnight on @Dancing With the Stars #DWTS!!!” she captioned a TikTok video .
