Brooks Nader revealed she is still legally married to Billy Haire amid her whirlwind romance with her former Dancing With the Stars partner Gleb Savchenko.

Eight months after filing for divorce, following months of separation, the Sports Illustrated model, 28, gave an update on her and Haire’s divorce proceedings. 

In her latest TikTok video, uploaded on Monday, her boyfriend lip-synced to audio of Ellen DeGeneres asking former talk show guest Amy Schumer about her marriage. 

‘And how’s your husband doing?’ Savchenko inquired, to which Nader responded: ‘He’s… great. Chris, right?’ 

Nader captioned the post: ‘Plot twist: still legally married.’ 

Her comment section was flooded with fans urging her to ‘get those papers going’ and others speculating that Savchenko was going to propose ‘the day the divorce is finalized.’

News first broke of her and Haire’s split in May 2024 after her rep confirmed to People that the former couple were ‘divorcing after living apart for months.’

‘The split is amicable,’ the insider said. ‘She’s a busy person and career wise she’s on top of the world. All relationships are hard and some can be salvaged, some can’t. They’re both truly amazing people. They have just decided to go their separate ways.’

Nader and Haire tied the knot back on December 14, 2019 in New Orleans, Louisiana. 

The couple exchanged vows in front of 330 of their closest friends and family, a rep for Nader told People.

Nader gushed about how ‘excited’ she was to finally ‘call [Haire] hubby’ and that she was looking forward to their future together.

‘We are also excited to just continue our adventures together. We’ve done a lot of fun traveling and look forward to doing even more.’

The wedding location was important to Nader as she is a Louisiana native and attended college at Tulane University.

‘I grew up in Louisiana and went to college in New Orleans for two years and love everything about the city,’ she told People ahead of the nuptials.

The couple incorporated ‘some fun New Orleans traditions’ into their wedding, including a post-ceremony line parade.

‘It’s a staple for New Orleans weddings,’ she added.

They worked with wedding planner Leslie Campbell to merge their love of the ‘chic and modern’ with ‘a New Orleans flair.’

Nader walked down the aisle in stunning strapless Pronovias Oberon bridal gown after trying on 50 different dresses.

‘I didn’t think it was going to be such a tough decision. But I searched for the perfect dress for months until I found the right one,’ she told the outlet of her choice.

Nader gushed that Haire was ‘so excited’ when he finally set his sights on her dress, which she’d kept hidden from him until their wedding day.

Although their wedding day went off without a hitch, the couple’s honeymoon had to be postponed until 2021 due to COVID-19 lockdown. Ultimately, they enjoyed a romantic trip to the Maldives.

In 2023, Nader detailed their disastrous first date at Bond Street in an interview with Sports Illustrated that ended with her in the hospital.

‘It was so embarrᴀssing,’ she recalled. ‘I literally had one bite of sushi, sprinted into the restroom and threw up.

‘Billy became my emergency contact when I’d only known him for like two days,’ she continued.

Haire is Vice President of the media company The Arena Group, which owns Sports Illustrated.

Because of this, Nader said that he has always understood the pressures of her job and fully supported her.

‘He’s busy, too,’ she explained. ‘He does his thing and although sometimes we are like ships pᴀssing in the night, it works perfectly for us.

‘And when we do get annoyed with each other, I’m probably about to jump on a plane.’

Samodanova was previously married to professional dancer Elena Samodanova between 2006 to 2020. 

Nader recently told DailyMail.com exclusively that falling for each other on set was ‘such a fun experience.’

‘He’s an amazing person and I’m really grateful that I was paired with him,’ she gushed. ‘I couldn’t have pictured myself having a different partner, so that was great.’

When asked to debunk the rumors that their relationship was just a showmance, the Sports Illustrated cover girl noted that ‘there are levels to every relationship.’

‘We were spending 6 to 7 hours a day, 7 days a week together rehearsing, so you obviously grow a bond with somebody over that period,’ the bombshell explained. ‘And, it’s such an intimate thing, ballroom dancing. I’m really bad at faking things.’
