Last month, it was revealed that Gleb, 41, would be returning as a pro to Dancing With the Stars season 33, with his partner being 27-year-old model Brooks. 

The pair appeared to have instant chemistry as they spent recent weeks sharing TikTok videos of her sitting on his lap, touching each other’s thighs during late-night practices and bonding over their favorite music. 

A source close to Brooks claimed that she says he’s “in love with her” when joking around with her pals due to their “undeniable” spark. 

“I think she’s joking but who knows they could be serious. I mean the way he looks at her I’d think that he was in love with her too,” they added. 

The source continued: “He seems enamored by her in rehearsals and just getting to know each other after practice.

“They haven’t hooked up yet or anything but they’re very flirty, very touchy feely. I mean VERY touchy feely they really seem comfortable with each other. 

“She said she’s never been with a dancer before so the closeness physically and mentally has been new for her and is electric for their chemistry in a way she’s not experienced. 

“It’s still early in the season and she’s single so everyone that knows her is encouraging it, she seems attracted to him.”

The insider added that the “people around her like Gleb” and noted that “he’s hot, so why not?”

Gleb previously spoke out about how “great” Brooks is and confirmed to Page Six that their chemistry is “amazing.”

However, Gleb told the outlet that the pair are not yet dating – though fans insist that it will inevitably happen. 

“Oh they’re definitely hooking up,” one Instagram user commented with fire emoji’s under a video of the pair intimately dancing.

“I would bet my life savings you two will be a couple by end of the season,” another convinced fan wrote. 

“Okay, we get it… you two have already slept together,” someone said bluntly. 

While a fourth said: “Are these two single? are we getting a love story? LMAO the producers knew exactly what they’ were doing.”

Conveniently, both Brooks and Gleb are newly single after ending their respective relationships earlier this year. 

In March, the dance pro called it quits with his longtime girlfriend, Elena Belle, after three years of dating. 

“Yes, Elena and I broke up last month. It kind of just happened. People always say life happens and sometimes I think, ‘How did it even happen?’” Gleb confessed in April.

Brooks isn’t the first show contestant that has been romantically linked to Gleb as the professional dancer faced similar rumors in 2020 when he was paired with Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause

Rumors swirled for weeks that Gleb and the Netflix real estate agent were an item, once again, due to their undeniable chemistry. 

However, speculation they were dating heated up even more when Gleb’s ex wife, Elena Samodanova, filed for divorce in 2020 as that season of DWTS was beginning and spoke up about his alleged infidelity.  

She claimed her trust was “irrevocably broken,” and accused her then-husband of “ongoing infidelity.”

ABC fans speculated that due to the alleged cheating being exposed around the time of the show beginning, that Chrishell may have been involved. 

NOTHING TO SEE HERE?

However, a rep for Chrishell squashed those rumors shortly after the filing became public. 

“Any insinuation or accusation that Chrishell is in any way involved in the dissolution of Gleb and Elena’s marriage is 100% categorically false.

“To be clear: Chrishell and Gleb are in no way, and have never been in any way, romantically involved.”

Gleb and Brooks will compete for the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy against Bachelor Joey Graziadei, controversial socialite Anna Delvey, Olympic gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik and other big names taking on the ballroom. 

DWTS premieres on September 17 at 8pm ET on ABC.
