Former Dancing With the Stars partners Jana Kramer and Gleb Savchenko had a secret romance while filming the US reality show, according to rumors. In 2016, the dancing couples competed together in 'Dancing with the Stars' USA's 23rd season.

The One Tree Hill star, 38, and the professional dancer, also 38, "hooked up" in 2016, according to Us Weekly, whilst Savchenko was still married to his ex-wife, Elena Samodanova. According to insiders, Kramer was separated from her ex-husband Mike Caussin, who was undergoing treatment for sex addiction, at the time of the alleged affair. "I never truly thought I did anything wrong," Kramer admitted in the former couple's 2020 book, The Good Fight, that she had some "flings and flirts" during their breakup. Kramer said, "Correction. I knew it was wrong; I just didn’t want to be the bad guy. I justified my actions in my mind just as I suppose Mike had done all along too."

When Savchenko and Samodanova, who have two daughters together, announced their divorce in November 2020, Samodanova claimed her husband had been unfaithful during their marriage, which he disputed. In December 2020, her rep said, "It's no secret that Gleb has had affairs with former dance partners – and who knows who else." (Representatives for Kramer and Savchenko declined to comment on the affair allegations)



 

In December 2017, Kramer and Caussin reconciled and renewed their vows. When he allegedly cheated on her again in April 2021, the couple, who had daughter Jolie, 5, and son Jace, 3, divorced for good. After dating Ian Schinelli for six months, the "Story" singer called it quits in April. "Jana has admitted to me that she slept with two guys while Mike was in rehab. She slept with Gleb," Schinelli told Us Weekly. "She justified it saying, 'We were legally separated.'" 



 

"She even tried to meet up with Gleb while we were dating," the former Navy Seal continued. "He was doing a show in Nashville and she asked me if it was OK if she met up with him. I said, 'As long as there was nothing there anymore,' and she said, 'No.' She never went and said it was out of respect for me."
