AceShowbiz - Despite "Dancing with the Stars" season 33 crowning its champions, the spotlight remains on pro-dancer Gleb Savchenko and Brooks Nader. Rumors of their romance have swirled since the season began, and now the couple is setting the record straight.

After their elimination, complications arose, but TMZ caught up with the couple, who confirmed their relationship. "Of course, it's real," said Savchenko. "Everything is real. We're not playing games."

Nader, who has been spotted with a ring on her finger, clarified its significance. She explained that it is a "divorce ring," repurposed from an old ring associated with her divorce from Billy Haire in 2022.

The couple revealed that the season finale brought them closer, having performed a steamy routine alongside fellow couple Sasha Farber and "The Bachelorette" alum Jenn Tran.

Despite previous claims that their relationship was "on-off," Savchenko and Nader confirmed that they are currently dating. However, they emphasized that they are not engaged.

Sources close to the couple revealed that they plan on continuing to spend time together post-"DWTS". Despite previous speculation, it was not merely a "showmance" for camera attention.

Nader acknowledged her family's embrace of Savchenko, including him in their Thanksgiving celebrations. However, she noted that they will spend the December holidays separately.

Savchenko dismissed the notion of removing his matching tattoo with Nader, saying it is "so special." Nader, on the other hand, is in the process of removing hers.

The couple's relationship has been the subject of intense speculation and drama. Despite their initial denials, they have finally acknowledged the validity of their connection. Whether their romance will endure beyond the dance floor remains to be seen, but their public confirmation has silenced the showmance rumors.
