Gleb Savchenko Back on DWTS Set: Nader's 'Fired' Claims Debunked!

Brooks Nader 's ex Gleb Savchenko was spotted on the Dancing with the Stars set after she said he was fired from the show

Dancing with the Stars Drama: Gleb Savchenko Spotted on Set Amid Cheating Scandal

In a dramatic turn of events, former Dancing with the Stars pro Gleb Savchenko, 41, has been spotted walking into rehearsals for the upcoming season of the hit ABC competition series. This comes after his ex-girlfriend and fellow cast member Brooks Nader claimed that he was fired from the show due to her allegations of infidelity.

Savchenko, who has been a part of the Dancing with the Stars family since 2013, kept a low profile on Friday as he arrived at the dance studio. Donning a baseball cap and reflective visor over his face, along with a black face mask, he attempted to fly under the radar. However, his tattoos, particularly the distinctive ink behind his right ear, made it impossible for fans to ignore him.

The pro dancer's casual attire, consisting of a dark gray T-shirt, baggy sweatpants, and sneakers, screamed "workout mode." But what was truly intriguing was the drama surrounding his presence on set. According to sources close to the show, Savchenko has been making it clear that he plans to return for the next season, despite Nader's claims that he got himself fired.

The cheating scandal between the two former lovers has been making headlines for weeks. In a recent TikTok video, Savchenko vehemently denied Nader's allegations, insisting that she was spreading lies and rumors to promote her new reality show, Love Thy Nader. When one fan commented that they "can't wait to see [him] on my TV again in September!", Savchenko cryptically replied, "Afraid you won't."

The drama between the two began when Nader claimed to have proof of Savchenko's infidelity during their time together as dance partners on season 33. In an interview with The Scholarly Note, she hinted that Savchenko had a hand in his own departure from the show, saying, "He got himself fired, probably."

This isn't the first time the couple has been embroiled in controversy. Their romance made headlines last year when they were spotted getting cozy backstage at Dancing with the Stars. However, their relationship was short-lived, and they eventually broke up for good in April.

Since then, Nader has been linked to none other than NFL legend Tom Brady after they were spotted getting close at Jeff Bezos' star-studded wedding in Venice. Meanwhile, Savchenko's next move remains a mystery, but one thing is certain - the drama between these two former lovers is far from over.

As fans eagerly await the return of Dancing with the Stars, one question remains: will Gleb Savchenko be back on the show? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure - this scandal has all the makings of a juicy reality TV plot twist. Stay tuned for more updates as this drama continues to unfold!
