Public Displays of Affection or PR Stunt?
Gleb Savchenko is wasting absolutely zero time licking his wounds. The notorious Dancing With the Stars lothario has officially re-entered the chat, and he is making sure the entire world knows about it. Just nine months after his toxic and highly publicized implosion with model Brooks Nader, Savchenko was spotted Sunday putting on a massive PDA show with a mystery woman that looked less like a casual date and more like a scene from a romance novel.
The location of this steamy session? The Studio City Farmers Market in California. For those not in the Hollywood loop, this is ground zero for celebrities who want to be “accidentally” seen by the cameras. It is the paparazzi runway of the San Fernando Valley. Savchenko, , was snapped practically inhaling the unidentified brunette, with arms wrapped tightly around each other in a display that screamed “look at me.”
Eyewitnesses on the scene report that the pair could barely keep their hands off one another. They were seen hugging, holding hands, and locking lips right next to the organic kale stand. Savchenko looked incredibly pleased with himself, sporting a zippered gray hoodie and a green baseball cap, flashing a smug grin that suggests he is completely unbothered by the cheating allegations currently torching his reputation.
The mystery woman, who bears a striking resemblance to his usual type, was flaunting her physique in a white sports bra and black leggings. She seemed more than happy to play the role of the new main character in Savchenko’s dramatic life, wrapping her arm around his waist as they strolled through the market stalls.
The Brooks Nader War Zone
This public outing comes at a highly suspicious time. Savchenko has been technically single since April , but the fallout from his relationship with Brooks Nader is still radioactive. The former couple, who turned season of Dancing With the Stars into their own personal dating show, have been trading barbs through the press and reality TV ever since the split.
Fans will remember the absolute chaos of their courtship. They hooked up immediately after being partnered in September . Nader, fresh off her divorce from Billy Haire, explicitly asked ABC for the “hottest, douchiest guy,” and they delivered Savchenko on a silver platter. The sexual tension was palpable, but it burned out faster than a cheap sparkler.
“Wait, didn’t Brooks just say he cheated? And now he’s parading this girl around? The math ain’t mathing but the drama is delivering.”
The timeline of their relationship reads like a car crash. They got matching tattoos almost immediately — the ultimate curse for any celebrity couple — and broke up for the first time just a week after being eliminated from the show. At the time, sources claimed Gleb ended it via text because things got “too comfortable.” But the second breakup in April is where things got truly nasty.
Cheating Accusations and Reality TV Beef
While Gleb is out buying plants and kissing strangers, Brooks Nader is preparing for war. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model and her sister, Grace Ann Nader, have gone on the record accusing the dancer of stepping out on her. This is not just idle gossip; they are claiming to have hard evidence.
On their family reality show, Love Thy Nader, Brooks dropped a bombshell that has yet to be defused. She told cameras she has “all the proof” regarding Savchenko’s infidelity. Savchenko, for his part, has dismissed these claims as “lies and rumors,” but his sudden appearance with a new woman might be an attempt to change the narrative before Brooks drops the receipts.
When the split happened in April, Savchenko played the victim card hard. He released a statement claiming he found out their relationship was over by reading about it in the press. He cited a text from Brooks on April asking to talk, claiming she ghosted him after he tried to call back. It was a classic “woe is me” spin, but Brooks’ camp immediately fired back, suggesting the relationship ended because Gleb could not keep his eyes — or hands — to himself.
The Serial Dater Curse
Gleb Savchenko is no stranger to messy breakups involving his dance partners. His history on DWTS is littered with rumors of showmances and backstage hookups. The man seems incapable of keeping it professional, and this latest “mystery brunette” fits perfectly into his pattern of moving on at lightning speed.
Critics are already pointing out that this new romance looks eerily similar to how his relationship with Brooks started — fast, physical, and extremely public. Is this new woman just another rebound to bruise Brooks’ ego? Or has Savchenko actually found someone who can handle his baggage?
“Gleb is the common denominator in all his drama. He collects girlfriends like Pokémon. Give this new girl months max.”
The visual of him looking so carefree while his ex-girlfriend is actively accusing him of betrayal on a reality show is a bold strategy. Usually, celebs lay low when “cheating proof” is being threatened. Savchenko is doing the opposite. He is practically daring Brooks to release the evidence.
Inside the “Text Message” Breakup
Let’s revisit the first breakup, because it speaks volumes about Savchenko’s conflict resolution skills. Insiders told us back in October that Gleb ended things “via a text” because he felt Brooks was pulling back. Allegedly, he had been spending too much time at her house and got “ahead of the situation” to protect his ego.
If that is how he handles a breakup after getting matching tattoos, this new mystery woman should probably keep her phone on silent. The dynamic between Savchenko and Nader was volatile from day one. Brooks admitted she wanted a “douchey” guy, and she got exactly what she ordered. Now, she is dealing with the hangover of that decision while Gleb is out enjoying the California sun with his new arm candy.
The fact that he is already engaging in this level of PDA suggests he is trying to prove he is “winning” the breakup. But with the Nader sisters holding onto potential bombshell evidence, this victory lap might be premature.
What We Know About the Mystery Woman
So who is she? So far, the internet sleuths have not positively identified the brunette, but the details are trickling in. She appears fit, comfortable with cameras, and clearly into Savchenko. The body language in the photos is undeniable. They are wrapped up in each other in a way that suggests this is not a first date. This has likely been going on behind the scenes for weeks, if not months.
She was wearing a white sports bra, black shrug, and shades — a classic “off-duty model” look that rivals Brooks’ own style. Is Gleb trying to replicate what he had with Brooks, just without the drama? Or is he intentionally dating someone who looks like his ex to send a message?
TMZ will be digging into her identity, but for now, she is simply the prop in Savchenko’s latest public performance. If history repeats itself, we will probably see them on a red carpet within the month, followed by a dramatic split six weeks later.
The Cliffhanger: Will Brooks Retaliate?
The ball is now firmly in Brooks Nader’s court. Seeing her ex parading around town with a new woman is guaranteed to sting, especially given the unresolved accusations of cheating. Will this provoke her to finally release the “proof” she claims to have?
If the Nader sisters decide to leak the receipts, Savchenko’s sunny Sunday at the farmers market will seem like a distant memory. We are watching the social media accounts of everyone involved very closely. This truce — if you can even call it that — is about to shatter.
