Brooks Nader is saying goodbye to her matching tattoo with her season 33 Dancing With the Stars partner, Gleb Savchenko.

When asked by TMZ on Wednesday, November 13, whether she plans on getting the ink removed, Nader, 28, replied, “Yeah. I’m already in the process, girlfriend. Removal.”

While noting that her tattoo isn’t fully gone now, she said that it’s “getting there.” Nader added, “A couple more sessions and I’ll be good to go.”

Nader, who said she and Savchenko, 41, were “colleagues,” said that the decision to get a tattoo was a “lapse in judgment.” She added that they were sober at the time.

Dancing With the Stars pro Gleb Savchenko is remaining тιԍнт-lipped about the matching tattoo he received with season 33 partner Brooks Nader. Savchenko, 41, teased his fans in a TikTok posted on Sunday, November 3, by beginning to take off his sweatshirt in a slow motion video. “Tattoo reveal,” he wrote over the clip. Before […]

Nader and Savchenko got matching ink amid their stint on the show, which came to an end in October. While the pair have yet to reveal what their tattoo was, Nader exclusively told Us last month that it has “special meaning.” She added, “It’s a little symbol, and it means something special. No animals. It’s a bit more in the astrology realm, but it’s not my star sign. None of that. It means something in that world. That’s my best hint I can give.”

Days later, Us confirmed that the duo’s romance had fizzled. “Gleb ended things, but Brooks is continuing to live her best life,” a source told Us in October. They have since poked fun at their whirlwind romance with their own respective TikToks.

While speaking with TMZ on Wednesday, Nader remained тιԍнт-lipped about the reason why her romance with Savchenko ended, but noted, “I didn’t know we were dating, to be honest with you.” She added, “You don’t have to be dating someone to make out, right?”

Nader said that she and Savchenko are no longer in touch but noted that they will soon cross paths for the DWTS season 33 finale, which airs later this month. “I think it could be potentially awkward,” she said. “No, it won’t be awkward. I’m a professional.”

Nader called Savchenko a “nice guy” before adding, “I don’t know what got in his head. I will have to spend a lot of time with him in the coming weeks to practice our final dance, so say your prayers.”

When asked whether she intends to pursue a romance with Savchenko, Nader replied, “I don’t think a hookup again. But I’m down to be friends with him. Maybe, I don’t know. If he doesn’t pull what he pulled on me. … He was really something with that one.”

Nader went on to claim that Savchenko pulled a “wild card” on her, but she didn’t get into specifics.
