Strictly’s Mollie King addresses the AJ Pritchard romance rumours

The two were sharing affectionate posts to each other

Mollie King has put the rumours that she’s struck up a romance with her Strictly Come Dancing partner to bed.

The stunning blonde was paired up with AJ Pritchard two weeks ago on the show’s coupling-up episode and both looked ecstatic at the union.

Rumours of a romance were sparked when the two posted a number of affectionate social media posts to each other.

Mollie posted a video to her Twitter, which has over 916,000 followers, revealing that she and AJ were watching a recording of the programme at her home. When the video span to AJ, he couldn’t keep the smile off his face.

The Saturdays singer captioned the Tweet: “So we might just be watching this together. Couldn’t be happier! Let’s do this @aj11ace xx #strictly [sic].”

Fans of the show immediately started speculating that the good-looking pair were perhaps already a little more than just friends.

AJ fuelled the rumours even more by sending out a Tweet to his followers which read: “I’m so happy @MollieKing @bbcstrictly 2017.”

However, Mollie has now squashed the gossip. Speaking to the Huffington Post, she said: “I think there’s always some kind of romance rumour so it didn’t surprise me but I hardly even know him well so far, so there’s no truth in that.”

“But he’s such a sweet heart and obviously he is a beautiful boy so I’m very lucky.” she continued.

The pair definitely seem to be getting on very well, with the 30-year-old blonde continuing to post her fondness for the professional dancer on social media, including a snap of them out shopping, where she described him as a “#gent”.

We’re excited to see how the two perform on the show!
