The 37-year-old dancer recently split from his wife Elena Samodanova after 14 years of marriage, but he's rubbished speculation that he was unfaithful with Chrishell, his partner on 'Dancing with the Stars'.

He told People: "While I will continue to respect the privacy of my family, I will not stand by and allow false accusations and internet rumours go unaddressed.

"My relationship with Chrishell was and remains strictly platonic. Our friendship during our season on 'DWTS' was not the reason for our split. Elena and I have had long-standing issues in our marriage. This has been an ongoing situation between Elena and I paired with poor timing."

A rep for Chrishell has also denied the speculation.

The spokesperson said: "Any insinuation or accusation that Chrishell is in any way involved in the dissolution of Gleb and Elena’s marriage is 100 percent categorically false.

"To be clear: Chrishell and Gleb are in no way, and have never been in any way, romantically involved."

However, Elena previously claimed that her trust in her husband has been "irrevocably broken", accusing him of "ongoing infidelity".

She said: "After 14 years of marriage, and multiple affairs, I’ve decided enough is enough.

"Gleb and I have created a family and multiple businesses together. But apparently, it just wasn’t enough to keep our marriage strong."

Elena accused the TV star of tearing their family apart.

She explained: "Gleb’s ongoing infidelity and a recent inappropriate relationship has created turmoil in our marriage and absolutely torn our family apart."

Meanwhile, Chrishell previously admitted to being "saddened" by news of Gleb's relationship problems.

She recently said on Instagram: "I am so saddened about the news of Gleb and Elena's split. It is unfortunate that this has caused rumours to swirl about my personal life."
