Who Are the Nader Sisters and Why Are They Everywhere?

by

Engagingly speaking, immersing myself in “Love Thy Nader,” the alluring Hulu/Freeform reality series tracing the lives of model siblings Brooks Nader and her sisterly cohort in New York, seems akin to enjoying an exhilarating episode of Cocomelon, artfully decked out with TikTok’s audacious glamour filter. This show masterfully captures the essence of what it believes a reality TV show ought to be – charming siblings rebelling against their conventional upbringing, navigating public heartbreaks, unveiling fashion lines, and squabbling in full finery on girls’ escapades.

The latest show, Love Thy Nader, tries to capitalize on the formula made popular by Keeping Up With the Kardashians, which has been attempted by shows like The Culpo Sisters, The Family Stallone, and The Bradshaw Bunch. These attempts have shown that while it may seem easy for the Kardashians to be a successful “it” family, it takes a lot of effort. Love Thy Nader follows the public drama and personal struggles of glamorous sisters (one of whom, Brooks, is more famous than the others), as they try to establish themselves in show business, while exchanging sharp comments for the cameras. A key similarity that could potentially secure the show’s place as the Kardashians’ successor is that the first episode is based on a well-known tabloid story.

The show takes off with a bang as Brooks’s passionate relationship with her “Dancing With the Stars” partner, Gleb Savchenko, crumbles when she finds evidence of his infidelity through his phone. This isn’t just great drama for reality TV; it’s a plot line that many viewers can relate to outside of the show, making it more engaging. It’s a scandal that’s making headlines, and the show is offering an exclusive glimpse into the aftermath, whether you were following this split or not. The concept of a “Dancing With the Stars” romance should be recognizable enough to help you navigate this world. Or, it’s more probable that they’ve caught your attention through their promotional tour, which included appearances on shows like Jimmy Kimmel (who’s also an executive producer), podcasts such as “Not Skinny But Not Fat”, and even “Nightline”.

After the August 26 debut, I soon found myself engrossed in this show, and it didn’t take long for me to suspect that it could be among the most intellectually challenging TV programs out there. The more identical sisters that popped up, the more my brain cells seemed to work overtime, trying to distinguish one from another and understand why I was even watching them. To help those just joining in, here’s a summary of all you need to know about the Naders family.

Brooks Nader, the Model

As a passionate film enthusiast, I’d rephrase it like this:

My journey into the world of modeling started unexpectedly when I won the 2019 open casting call for Sports Illustrated’s “Swimsuit” issue. Raised in Louisiana with traditional values, this was quite a departure from my upbringing. Initially, I became a frequent face in the magazine, and in 2023, I graced its cover – an accomplishment I am extremely proud of.

The following year saw me participating on Dancing With the Stars alongside Gleb Savchenko. Though we ended up finishing in ninth place, the show brought us closer, leading to a romantic relationship that blossomed off-stage. This romance followed a significant life change – my divorce from Billy Haire, who I had been with since I was 19 years old. Billy has since moved on and is now dating Southern Charm’s Naomie Olindo.

Gleb Savchenko, the Ex

Initially, the couple’s deep bond was showcased at the start of the first episode (Gleb met Brooks’ parents and they discussed cohabiting), but Gleb soon transformed into the main adversary due to his vulnerable phone password and excursion to Joshua Tree. The supposed infidelity served as the catalyst for the storyline, prompting Brooks’ siblings to support her during the separation. Even when he was not physically present, he cast a long shadow as she navigated the backlash from the breakup – with many suspecting she orchestrated it for publicity purposes – and engaged in textual disputes with him. Throughout these episodes, there was a disclaimer stating that he denied all allegations of infidelity. Interestingly, although Savchenko hinted at being let go from Dancing With the Stars on TikTok during the summer, he is actually rejoining the show with partner Hilaria Baldwin.

Breaux Nader and Holland Greene Nader, the Parents

In the beginning of the series, the Naders’ parents travel to Soho to assist in the debut of Brooks’s collection with Hudson Jeans, but they also function as a traditional counterbalance to their daughters’ behavior. They are cautious about Gleb well before the Joshua Tree incident and offer comfort when things take a turn for the worse.

Mary Holland Nader, the Wall Street Manager–Slash–Model

At the outset of the season, Mary Holland finds herself at a crossroads, contemplating whether to ascend further up the corporate ladder at Deutsche Bank or transition to modeling and endorsements. She eventually makes the bold move to leave her position as an investment manager, choosing instead to embark on what she terms a “mini-retirement.” This decision leaves her father aghast, but why subject oneself to office life when one can earn a living by having a film crew visit?

Grace Ann Nader, the Public Health Student–Slash–Model

As Grace Ann pursues a career in public health, she’s simultaneously making strides in the modeling world – though she prefers to navigate this field independently from her sisters, who she feels tend to be overly critical of her professional decisions within it. Known as the wildcard of the show, it is revealed that her sisters staged an intervention for her in the past due to her problematic drinking habits. However, it should be noted that while Grace Ann is not currently sober, she emphasizes that her drinking behavior has significantly improved since then.

Sarah Jane Nader, the Other Model

As the youngest Nader, I’m also a model, and while I don’t entirely fit into traditional labels when it comes to my sexual orientation, I find myself leaning towards the LGBTQ+ community. My family, who are quite conservative, have had issues accepting my divorce and my career in bikini modeling. However, they seem to be even more apprehensive about discussing my personal relationships, a topic that is rarely brought up compared to what they inquire about my sisters’ dating lives.

ChatGPT, the Therapist

In a rather unusual turn of events, it appears that ChatGPT could potentially make its reality show debut, given the frequent interactions between the sisters and the AI. This occurs when one sister, unable to discern which among them, seeks advice from ChatGPT on how to uplift Brooks’ spirits following her discovery of Gleb’s texts. Remarkably, they later resort to using this AI bot to draft a breakup message for Brooks to send to Gleb.

Ralph Nader, the Politician

No relation.
