What appeared to be a fairytale story is now shocking the public with feud claims, spell the consummation of a 14-year long era of Dancing with the Stars for Gleb.  

What exactly did Brooks Nader allege?

Brooks does not show any restraint for cameras. She states in the trailer of Love Thy Nader, “He’s a cheater and I have all that proof.” As outlandish as it sounds, she does back it up. Emotionally charged claims rife for both broad narrative and intense responses have been front and center for reality show narratives. In fact, it goes as deep as the own family of Brooks. Her sister Mary Holland, in the trailer, makes a supporting statement stating, “my sister just got cheated on… why do men suck.”

The Romance That Sparked It All

Gleb and his now ex-wife met in 2024 during the filming for Season 33 of DWTS, and from the outset, they forged a “showmance.” It escalated fast—By October, they had already split once after their elimination. Then, in April 2025, they broke up again, and this time, Brooks alleged cheating. He often denial the claim, stating, “I’m not a cheater… I’m a relationship guy,” and described the breakup news as shocking.

Why This Has Everyone Talking

This is deeply relatable, and the gulf between how normal people experience a breakup and the way this relationship is disassembled in public adds a dimension to the entire thing. The layers of a new reality show, the potential removal of a beloved DWTS pro from the cast, as well as the intertwined feelings of conflict and comfort give the situation a sense of complexity.

A spin-off from The Nader Show, Love Thy Nader, hosted by Brooks Nader is set to release on Freeform August 26th, with streaming available on Hulu the following day. 

Perhaps what is most interesting is Gleb’s years-long work as a pro on the DWTS touring shows. It has to come as a shock to many to see the kind of loyalty he built over the years now withering so quickly due to claims of his misconduct. 

For many of us, it’s almost indescribably sad. There were and continue to be so many who were invested in the stunning realness of a seeming love story broken apart so brutally, on a public platform. There is, at the least, a swirl of broken promises, broken hearts, broken love, betrayal, a TV exhale of “I do!” and a family show exit in waiting, the kind of which is so shambolic, all you can do is gasp and be totally aghast at the reality all too real.
