DWTS pro Gleb Savchenko and Elena Belle have split after nearly three years of dating: ‘I’m gonna miss her a lot’
Dancing With The Stars pro Gleb Savchenko has announced he is back on the market after ending his nearly three-year relationship with Swedish blogger Elena Belle.
The dancer, 40, revealed that he and the 39-year-old singer “broke up about a month ago” following his announcement that he will be joining the Chippendales as celebrity guest host this year.
‘It just happened. People always say that life happens and sometimes I think, ‘How did it even happen?'” the choreographer shared Page six.
Savchenko and Belle have been romantically linked since August 2021, nine months after his ex-wife, Elena Samodanova, filed for divorce after 14 years of marriage.

The dancer, 40, revealed that he and the 39-year-old singer “broke up about a month ago” following his announcement that he will be teaming up with the Chippendales as a celebrity guest host this year.
While reflecting on the end of their relationship, Savchenko had nothing but sweet things to say about Belle, who he says he “still loves very much” to this day.
Overall, the father-of-two raved that they “had a great time together” and described Belle as an “amazing mom” and the “total package.”
“It’s just the timing,” he explained. ‘We had been together for almost three years and I had the best time of my life with her. There are certain things that just didn’t work out.’
Despite heading to Las Vegas next month for his new job, Savchenko insisted his appearance with the Chippendales had nothing to do with their split.
‘I wish her all the best and I’m sure she will be fine. She’s a super hot girl and all,” he said. ‘She’s great. I’m going to miss her very much.’
Belle is mother to a little girl named Luna, whom she welcomed during her wedding to Michael Theanne, who died of a heart attack in 2020.
Savchenko shares two daughters Olivia, 12, and Zlata, five, with his ex-wife.
His former wife accused him of relentless infidelity, an accusation he denied after their divorce.
‘It just happened. People always say life happens and sometimes I think, ‘How did it even happen?'” the choreographer told Page Six

According to court documents, Savchenko and Samodanova did not ask for spousal support in the divorce.
Savchenko said in a statement that his focus was on co-parenting with Samodanova in the future.
“My first priority now and always will be my daughters, and the fact that this separation has the minimum possible impact on them,” Savchenko said. ‘Sometimes relationships don’t go well and this is one of those times.’
He continued, “Elena and I agreed to work together to end the marriage amicably and be kind to each other. As co-parents, we commit to protecting our girls from our differences, supporting their relationships with each other, and continuing to prioritize their growth and development.”
