Brooks Nader is still the apple of Gleb Savchenko's eye.

Despite parting ways after their run on season 33 of Dancing with the Stars, some fans think the duo have since reunited. With the same question in mind, DWTS pros Ezra Soza and Rylee Arnold confronted the Russian-born dancer, 41, about the status of their relationship.

“We’re going to have him tell us the truth here,” Arnold said with a smile in Soza's TikTok video. During a rehearsal break, Arnold motioned Savchenko over and asked him to explain a video, in which eagle-eyed fans noticed the background were the same in Savchenko and Nader’s latest posts.

“Will you explain this to me? That is Brooks’ house!" Arnold, 19, quipped as Savchenko examined the images.

“No, it’s not the same place. She has, like, a light in the background. My house is exactly the same. It’s a new building. And one of those cheap ass, you know, remodel houses," he said defending his stance. While Arnold laughed in disbelief, Soza pressed the matter further and pointed out, "Yeah, but you guys have the same house."

"It's not the same house, no," Savchenko explained. “Totally different house. Look, that plant — I’ve never seen that plant before. I have had my plant, I’ve had it for a long time. I actually brought it from my old place to my new place.”

While he denied rumors the two had reconciled, Savchenko looked to the camera and issued a message to Nader, "Brooks, if you’re watching, I miss you,” he said.

“You were the one who texted her, Gleb! You were the one who ended it," Arnold said and he confirmed, "I did."

Savchenko then played coy when asked why he would break things off if he missed her. “Stop recording, I might tell you,” he responded before exiting.

Soza captioned the clip, "I still have so many questions.”

In the comment section, Nader, 28, also weighed in on the fan theories, writing, "Never been to his house but I’ve never heard of matching houses …? Hmmm."

Nader and Savchenko first sparked dating rumors when they were paired together on DWTS this season. The two were later seen making out backstage, posting flirty videos on TikTok, and even got tattoos together.

In a cheeky TikTok from the day they got inked, they documented the experience with a video lip-syncing to a popular audio that begins, “Girl don’t do it, it’s not worth it.”
