Brooks Nader and Gleb Savchenko, the dynamic duo from Dancing With the Stars, were seen indulging in some serious public affection while getting inked in Los Angeles on Monday night. According to images shared by sources, the chemistry between the two was palpable as they embraced each other passionately during their tattoo session in Hollywood.
The pair, who have been heating up the dance floor recently, couldn’t resist wrapping their arms around one another, even sharing a steamy kiss in the tattoo parlor. As Nader, age 28, settled into the tattoo chair for her design on her lower abdomen, a shirtless Savchenko, age 41, made the moment even more intimate by kissing her softly on the lips and neck.
The Sports Illustrated model, dressed in stylish low-rise jeans, a white crop top, and a trucker hat, appeared to straddle Gleb while he was on the tattoo table getting his ink done on the rib cage. This public display of affection has sparked significant buzz around their blossoming relationship, especially given the recent rumors that they’ve been more than just dance partners.
Their flirtation was evident not only during the tattoo session but also in the weeks leading up to it, where they’ve shared playful videos on social media in promotion of the latest season of the popular ABC show. Just two weeks prior, they were spotted kissing backstage following a dinner date at Wally’s in Beverly Hills.
During their sultry performance on Monday’s Dancing With the Stars episode to Marvin Gaye’s “Sexual Healing,” Nader expressed her delight about the connection she shares with Savchenko, emphasizing that their chemistry gives them an edge in their performances. “It’s definitely a huge bonus that we have such great chemistry,” she remarked ahead of their routine.
While the two have been tight-lipped about the true nature of their relationship, both have denied any romantic involvement beyond friendship at this point. This comes on the heels of Nader’s recent divorce from her husband of four years, Billy Haire, which was reported back in May.
Savchenko himself also recently became single after ending a three-year relationship with model Elena Belle earlier this year. He was previously married to dancer Elena Samodanova, with whom he shares two daughters.
Whether they are simply enjoying each other’s company or the beginning of something deeper remains to be seen, but their undeniable chemistry is certainly keeping fans intrigued as they continue to steal the spotlight on and off the dance floor.
