In a recent interview with Us Weekly, Jana’s ex-boyfriend Ian Schinelli alleged that the country singer had a relationship with Gleb.

In response to these allegations, Gleb told “There’s a lot of acting, there’s a lot of chemistry, natural chemistry and you know, when you dance and you train someone every day, and you’re up close and personal, you develop a certain connection.

“The viewer sees it. I mean, you want to have that because you want to last in the competition, and my job was to make sure that we go really, really far.”

But, according to Gleb, the on-screen chemistry never translated into an off-screen romance.

“Have we ever had anything? Absolutely not. Absolutely not,” he stated. “Whatever she might have said to her boyfriend, maybe she tried to make him jealous, you know. You can ask her the same question, she’ll probably answer the same thing.”

The dance star concluded that he feels “sad” for Ian after hearing his allegations against Jana, adding: “I was totally surprised. She texted me, she’s like, ‘Dude, like can you imagine he said all of this? I’ve never, you know…whatever.’ So, but, absolutely not.”
