The ‘Strictly curse’ has struck again as two stars were seen kissing during a rehearsal – but this time on the other side of the pond.

Dancing With The Stars recently kicked off for season 33 and sparks are already flying between Brooks Nader, 28, and her professional partner, Gleb Savchenko.

In a clip from last week’s live show – which saw Anna Delvey and Tori Spelling booted off in a double elimination – the pair could be seen sharing a tender a kiss while preparing for their routine, in which they performed a quick step to iconic Dolly Parton track, 9 to 5.

Their PDA wasn’t just reserved for the dance floor as they were also pictured embracing during a low-key dinner in Beverly Hills over the weekend.

Ahead of their upcoming DWTS performance next week, set to Sexual Healing, the model couldn’t help raving over her partner, describing the 41-year-old as ‘an amazing teacher’.

‘There’s a lot to learn in terms of ballroom dancing, so Gleb is an amazing teacher and I’m having a really good time,’ she told Extra.

‘He’s just an amazing teacher and it’s not a bad gig for me to spend six hours a day just sweating and rehearsing with him every day. It’s fantastic.’

Addressing their PDA-heavy antics, Brooks insisted that she wanted viewers to focus on the dancing, as she has been working overtime on the routine.

‘This week, I really want people to take me seriously as a dancer because I’m actually working really hard to learn the routines, so I want people to focus on that too,’ she continued.

‘I have so many mixed feelings about it. I’m newly single and we’re having a really nice time. Everything you see online and on TikTok is real – there’s nothing fake about it, I’m not a fake girl. And who wouldn’t want to make out with Gleb?’

When described as a ‘beautiful couple’, she also clarified: ‘We’re a dance couple for now – we’re not in a relationship.’

In a candid chat with People Magazine, Gleb was questioned about the kiss and branded their chemistry ‘natural and awesome’.

Their chemistry was clearly evident from the get go, as they were questioned about their bond by host Julianne Hough in the season premiere last month.

‘We have a lot of fun,’ the pro coyly replied.

Their flirtation comes months after Brooks announced her split from husband Billy Haire, after a four-year marriage.

The former couple tied the knot in a swanky ceremony in New Orleans in December, 2019, but it wasn’t to last and they went their separate ways in an ‘amicable’ split.

Her rep confirmed the news to People Magazine, while an insider claimed: ‘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.’
