Gleb Savchenko Sends Blessings to Ex Elena Samodanova Amid Pregnancy News — But Not All Exes Are on Speaking Terms
Avery Sinclair here, bringing you the kind of celebrity insight that cuts through the fluff and gets straight to the point. Because let’s be real—nobody has time for manufactured drama and Instagram captions that read like Hallmark card rejects. Let’s talk about the latest from the ballroom world’s most inconsistent charmer, Gleb Savchenko.
Oh, this should be *good*. Gleb Savchenko, the Dancing With the Stars pro known for his dramatic flair both on and off the dance floor, has taken a surprisingly gracious route in response to his ex-wife Elena Samodanova’s pregnancy announcement. The former couple, who share two daughters, split back in 2019, but Gleb recently took to Instagram to send Elena and her new partner, Vlad Kvartin, a string of heart emojis and a simple “Congratulations.” Because nothing says heartfelt like a series of emojis and a sentence that could’ve been written by a middle schooler.
Elena, who relocated to Hong Kong with the couple’s daughters in 2023, shared the news with a heartfelt caption: “Our love story continues with a new chapter. We can’t wait to meet you.” Cue the violins and the soft lighting. Meanwhile, Gleb is playing the role of the supportive ex—on the surface, at least. But let’s not forget, this is the same man who’s currently embroiled in a very public breakup with model Brooks Nader, who claims Gleb cheated. And Gleb, ever the defensive prince, insists he’s “not a cheater” and “not a f–kboy.” Sure, Gleb. We’ve heard that one before.
In a statement to Page Six shortly after the split, Gleb claimed he was still “processing everything” and even said he hadn’t heard back from Brooks after calling her in response to her initial text. Because nothing says emotional maturity like ghosting someone after they ask to talk things out. Brooks, for her part, is saving her side of the story for her Hulu reality series *Love Thy Nader*, which debuted August 27. And if the trailer is any indication—“He’s a cheater and I have all that proof”—it’s going to be a juicy season.
But Gleb isn’t the only one navigating post-breakup chaos. Across the reality TV landscape, love is crumbling like a poorly baked soufflé. John Sansone and *The Farmer Wants a Wife* contestant Claire Dirette called it quits after nearly a year together, with Sansone citing “private challenges” in a since-deleted Instagram post. Jessica Mulroney, once the glittering socialite and friend to Meghan Markle, separated from her husband Ben after 16 years of marriage, with the split coming shortly after Jessica was spotted ring-free. And So You Think You Can Dance host Cat Deeley and Patrick Kielty quietly ended their 12-year marriage, issuing a joint statement that emphasized their commitment to co-parenting their two sons.
Even *Little People, Big World* star Matt Roloff and former fiancée Caryn Chandler decided to call off their engagement, with Roloff calling it “the right step for us at this time.” Sure, Matt. And *Today* show host Dylan Dreyer and her husband Brian Fichera, married for 12 years, also decided to go their separate ways, though details remain sparse.
So, what’s the takeaway here? Relationships in the spotlight are about as stable as a three-legged stool on a windy day. Gleb may be playing the supportive ex for now, but with Brooks ready to drop her tell-all and Elena starting a new family, it’s anyone’s guess how long this peace will last. One thing’s for sure: the drama isn’t over. Not even close.
And that’s today’s dose of reality. You’re welcome.
