Dancing with the Stars' Gleb Savchenko splits from model girlfriend
Gleb Savchenko has parted ways with Elena Belle due to "timing" and other issues.
Gleb Savchenko has split from model Elena Belle after three years of dating.
The 40-year-old 'Dancing with the Stars' professional has confirmed he is single again after the pair parted ways last month.
He told The New York Post's Page Six column: “Yes, Elena and I broke up about a month ago.
“It kind of just happened. People always say life happens and sometimes I think, ‘How did it even happen?’”
Gleb explained that it was down to "timing" and "certain things" they couldn't "work out".
It seems they split on good terms, as he gushed: “She’s an amazing person and everything. It’s just the timing.
“We had been together for almost three years, and I had, like, the best time of my life with her. There’s certain things that just didn’t work out.”
Prior to his relationship with Elena, Gleb was married to Elena Samodanova, with whom he has children Olivia and Zlata, for 14 years, until their relationship ended in 2020.
Elena claimed that her trust in her then-husband had been "irrevocably broken", accusing him of "ongoing infidelity".
She said: "After 14 years of marriage, and multiple affairs, I’ve decided enough is enough.
"Gleb and I have created a family and multiple businesses together. But apparently, it just wasn’t enough to keep our marriage strong."
Elena accused the TV star of tearing their family apart.
She explained: "Gleb’s ongoing infidelity and a recent inappropriate relationship has created turmoil in our marriage and absolutely torn our family apart."
He was accused of having an affair with 'Selling Sunset' star Chrishell Stause, who was his partner on the dance reality show.
Shutting down the gossip, he told People at the time: "While I will continue to respect the privacy of my family, I will not stand by and allow false accusations and internet rumours go unaddressed.
"My relationship with Chrishell was and remains strictly platonic. Our friendship during our season on 'DWTS' was not the reason for our split. Elena and I have had long-standing issues in our marriage. This has been an ongoing situation between Elena and I paired with poor timing."
