Brooks Nader is putting the romance rumors to rest. Amid speculation that the Love Thy Nader star, 28, had been “hooking up” with Ben Affleck, Deuxmoi reported on Jan. 24 that a source claimed that the pair had “never met.”
Underneath the Instagram post, Nader provided clarification in a comment, writing, “Haven’t met him in my life.”
Prior to her latest romance rumors, the Dancing with the Stars alum was involved in an on-off relationship with her DWTS pro partner, Gleb Savchenko, after they met during season 33 of the ABC competition series.
“I was newly divorced and I told them, ‘Give me the hottest, douchiest guy,’ and they gave me Gleb,” Nader — who was married to Billy Haire from 2019 to 2025 — recalled
during a December 2025 appearance on Watch What Happens Live. “I felt as though there was so much sexual tension on the first day we met that it would just get worse and worse.”
While Nader and Savchenko’s chemistry persisted throughout their time on the show, the pair broke up in April 2025 after the model accused the dancer, 42, of cheating on her, allegations he later denied.
When Olivia Attwood then brought up criticisms that called Nader “bitter” for continuing to rehash their relationship during an episode of her Olivia’s House podcast in November, the model responded, "Meanwhile, this f---ing guy is in his 40s and he was on Instagram Live a couple nights ago, ranting about me and my whole family."
