Gleb Savchenko and Brooks Nader made a dramatic return to the Dancing With the Stars ballroom during the season finale on November 26, rekindling their chemistry after a breakup earlier in the season.
Three weeks after their elimination, the former couple reunited for a sultry routine, performing to the song “Reunited” by Peaches & Herb.
Brooks, wearing a dazzling shimmering gown, joined Gleb and fellow costars Jenn Tran and Sasha Farber for a stunning performance.
The reunion was even teased on TikTok before the finale, where Brooks lip-synced to a playful sound, “You wanna kiss me? Come on, kiss me,” as she laughed with Gleb.
He also shared a behind-the-scenes clip of her getting ready, setting the stage for an emotional comeback.
Brooks herself shared a heartfelt video of her teary-eyed in her dressing room, captioned with Taylor Swift’s “Bigger Than the Whole Sky,” expressing her bittersweet emotions.
Despite confirming their split in October, with Gleb revealing they broke up via text in November, their connection during the DWTS season was undeniable.
Gleb previously mentioned that their time rehearsing together fostered a unique chemistry that contributed to their success in the competition.
Brooks, on the other hand, described their experience as a fun, lighthearted journey, even though there were hints of deeper affection.
The reunion on the DWTS stage, complete with emotional and playful moments, showcased that while their relationship may have ended, their bond remains a memorable part of their dance journey.
