Dancing with the Stars pro Gleb Savchenko was notably snubbed by his partner Hilaria Baldwin as she exhibited “cringe” behavior following her elimination–and he isn’t happy about it, according to new reports.
The pair was eliminated from the ABC competition at the end of Disney Night, shocking fans since the show doesn’t always cut a couple during the theme night.
Now, on the heels of reports that Baldwin, 41, reacted with “rage and tears” backstage after she was cut from the show, it is also being revealed that Savchenko, also 41, is miffed after she neglected to thank him during her speech at the end of the show.
Not only did she seemingly ignore Gleb as he told her he was “proud” of her as they walked down from the stage following the news they had been eliminated, but Baldwin notably shocked everyone by grabbing host Alfonso Ribeiro’s microphone–and seemingly thanking everyone but Savchenko, who had been her teacher and partner throughout the experience.
“I’m so grateful to the experience, to all of you, to my children and my family, and thank you guys for this,” she said at the time. “I’m cheering on everyone on the cast because this has been an amazing time.”

She further baffled everyone when she blatantly stood in front of Ribeiro as he tried to close the show, in an effort to seemingly speak with the judges, forcing co-host Julianne Hough to pull her back to the middle of the floor with Savchenko and the rest of the cast.
Now, a production insider tells the US Sun that the Russian dancer was “disappointed” his season was over, but he was “not upset” that he no longer had to spend much time with the yoga instructor and mom of six.
“They did not get along all of the time. He also feels done dirty by her for not thanking him and all the work he put into making this happen,” the source told the publication.
“The partnership came together more last-minute than some of the others but he really busted his a-s to make it work for her,” they added. “He knows how much it meant to her and he feels there wasn’t equal gratitude from her side.”

A source previously shared that Baldwin broke down backstage after she was cut as well, with it described as one of the most “emotional” reactions ever seen.
“It was very over the top, and she’s not as close with the rest of the cast, so the vibes were kinda awkward backstage,” they said. “She cried for a long time, she seemdd angry, and was very shocked.She genuinely thought she had a shot of making to the finale and was very, very sure of herself.”
They also noted that it was a huge “blow to her ego,” while her partner was far more nonchalant.
“Gleb seemed more neutral on the matter. He seemed almost indifferent that his season ended.”

The pair’s apparently lack of affection for one another was also notable in their social media posts after the show ended.
While Savchenko shared a post where he praised Baldwin, saying he was honored to have met her and her husband, Alec Baldwin, and that it was “one of the best experiences I’ve ever had on the show,” Baldwin took a different approach.
In her post, which included some clips from the show and rehearsals, she once again pulled focus on her family, and while her post did mention her partner, it was in passing.
“Spent the day mommying and processing with my children. To my family, friends, Gleb, DWTS, all of you who have encouraged me…I’m forever grateful. I’m excited to cheer on my cast mates. I love you all,” she wrote.

The pair’s final dance was a quickstep to Cantina Band from Star Wars: A New Hope.
They ended the night in the middle of the leaderboard with a 23 out of 30 from the judges.
The remaining couples will perform special routines next week in honor of “dedication night.”
Dancing With the Stars airs Tuesdays on ABC and Disney+.
