Dancing With the Stars pro Gleb Savchenko has confirmed his breakup from model Elena Belle.

Savchenko, 40, shared with Page Six on Tuesday, April 2, that he and Elena broke up about a month ago. He expressed surprise at how quickly it happened, musing on how life can sometimes take unexpected turns.

The professional dancer didn't give a specific reason for the breakup. However, Savchenko mentioned that he still has strong feelings for Belle, 39, and only has positive things to say about their time together.

He expressed, "She's truly amazing. It's just that the timing wasn't right." Despite almost three years of being together and sharing wonderful memories, there were certain aspects that didn't align well.

In 2021, Savchenko and Belle began their relationship after being introduced by a mutual friend on the 4th of July. They connected over their shared passion for fitness, wellness, and being single parents.

Savchenko has two daughters, Olivia and Zlata, with his ex-wife Elena Samodanova. Belle, on the other hand, is a mother to daughter Luna from her previous marriage to late husband Michael Theanne.

Savchenko and Belle often shared their romantic vacations and date nights on social media during their relationship.

However, fans started to wonder about their relationship status when they noticed that both Savchenko and Belle unfollowed each other on Instagram last month.

Savchenko successfully completed another Dancing With the Stars tour in March, despite his recent breakup. The cast traveled to almost 70 cities in the United States, showcasing a variety of dances from the popular ABC show.

In just a few weeks, Savchenko will be trading his ballroom dance shoes for the iconic Chippendales bow ties.

Starting April 25, the reality star will be a special guest host for the Chippendales at the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. He will also be part of the world tour cast for six shows in July at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City.

Savchenko shared his excitement on Instagram in March, teasing, "I know you're gonna love it. Come see me LIVE for my Vegas debut. Will I see you there?"

Savchenko recently mentioned in an interview that his new job was unrelated to the breakup. He expressed his well wishes for his ex-partner, saying, "I wish her all the best and I’m sure she’ll be fine." Speaking to Page Six, he added, "She’s a super hot girl and everything. She’s awesome. I’m gonna miss her a lot."
