DWTS’ Brooks Nader Reads Gleb Savchenko’s Breakup Text on Live Stream: ‘You Always Have a Special Place in My Heart’

Brooks Nader is not holding back!

The Sports Illustrated model, 27, did a TikTok live stream on Tuesday, Nov. 26 ahead of the Dancing with the Stars season 33 finale, where she will be dancing with former partner Gleb Savchenko. After the two sparked dating rumors during their time on the show, it was revealed later that they broke up after their elimination, but fans wondered what really went down between the two.

“He was going through something and then he said, ‘Picked up my stuff. I’m going to Joshua Tree tomorrow for a few nights. We should have a conversation but I think I’m done,’” Nader read as she scrolled through her alleged texts with Savchenko. “‘I care about you. I think you’re an amazing person. You always have a special place in my heart. I love you.’ That was on October 23.”

“I never responded,” she continued. “Then, October 25, he said, ‘I miss you.’ Then, October 26, ‘I’m so sorry, I want to talk to you. I actually miss you.’ Then, of course, we had a little chit-chat.”

Earlier in the live stream, she left her trailer to ask Savchenko if she could share their conversation, giggling as she called him “boo” before pausing the video.

It remains unclear what led to the breakup — and if the pair are back together — but just one day before the live stream, Nader and Savchenko were seen packing on the PDA in several DWTS cast members’ social media videos.

In one clip, posted by Emma Slater, Nader was straddling Savchenko’s waist as he carried her around the dance floor during rehearsals. Slater, 35, captioned the video, “Just call me paparazzi,” and can be heard in the background asking, “What is happening?”

It ended with Nader spotting the camera and jumping back down to the floor, still keeping Savchenko wrapped in her arms.

Nader replied in the comments: “Omfg.”

Throughout their time on the show, Nader and Savchenko sparked dating rumors after they were spotted kissing backstage, getting flirty in TikTok videos and even revealing they got tattoos together.

After a source confirmed to PEOPLE in late October that the pair had split, they began dropping hints about what went wrong with back-and-forth TikTok videos. Then, on Nov. 16, they got dinner together at Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood, Calif. before rehearsals picked up for their performance at the DWTS finale.

A few days later, Savchenko showed the two of them at lunch with the song “ily (i love you baby)” by Surf Mesa playing, causing more confusion among fans.

“Annnnnd they’re back together 😂” Slater commented. 

The plot thickened when Nader was seen leaving rehearsals on Sunday, Nov. 24, wearing a diamond pear-shaped ring on her left ring finger.

Dancing with the Stars‘ season 33 finale airs live Tuesday, Nov. 26 at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and Disney+.
