Dancing With the Stars fans are already quite familiar with who Gleb Savchenko is, but they may not be as well-acquainted with his ex-wife, Elena Samodanova, who is now pregnant with her third child.
Savchenko and Samodanova got married in 2006, later welcoming daughters Olivia and Zlata.
After being married for more than a decade, Us Weekly confirmed in November 2020 that the couple had chosen to separate.
“It is with a heavy heart that I tell you my wife and I are parting ways after 14 years of marriage,” Savchenko said in a statement to Us. “We still intend to coparent our wonderful children together who we love so dearly, and we will strive to continue to be the best parents that we can to them. We ask that you respect our family’s need for privacy and healing during this time.”
Savchenko and Samodanova settled their divorce in October 2021. She later moved to Hong Kong with their kids in 2023, granting her ex-husband frequent visitations.
