Strictly Come Dancing professional AJ Pritchard has gone Instagram official with his girlfriend Abbie Quinnen. 

The couple are believed to have started dating in May and appearing to confirm the romance for the first time, AJ shared a snap of himself and Abbie on Instagram. 

The pair are currently on holiday in Crete and underneath the picture, AJ wrote: “Feeling HAPPY.”

Abbie shared the same snap on her page, writing: “Making memories.” 

The couple reportedly met when Abbie, who is also a dancer, auditioned for a part in AJ’s upcoming solo tour. 

In May, the Sun claimed they had enjoyed a number of low-key London dates, but were taking thing slowly as AJ wrapped up the Strictly Professionals tour. 

Confirmation of AJ’s new romance comes as his brother, Curtis, is continuing to crack on with Maura Higgins in the Love Island villa. 

Friday’s episode saw Curtis and Maura officially couple up, following his split from Amy Hart. 

After the break-up, Amy chose to leave the villa voluntarily in order to give herself time to recover from the split and let Curtis pursue other relationships without her there. 

AJ will be back on our TV screens later this year, when Strictly returns for its 17th series.
