In 2018, he praised his wife – who is also a professional dancer – telling ET Online: "Happy wife, happy life. I've been saying it for a very long time!
"Everybody knows it, but sometimes nobody follows that, but I do! She wanted a dance studio, here you go! You want to go to work and teach kids, here.
"I have the best wife because she's very supportive. She supports what I do, we do the same thing. It's kind of having the same goals. She has crazy ideas, and I say, 'Let's make it happen.' But she is the one who kind of starts it all."
After his stint on Strictly, in which he was partnered with Anita Rani, Gleb returned to the American version, Dancing with the Stars. He was recently eliminated from the 29th season alongside his celebrity partner, Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause.
