His younger brother Curtis has been busy doing bits with Maura Higgins in the Love Island villa, but it seems AJ Pritchard has got a romance of his own.

The Strictly professional proved things had progressed with dancer Abbie Quinnen as he went Instagram official with her – which is like, the most serious you can be on the relationship tier before marriage basically.

The dancer, 24, shared a cute photo of the couple dressed in their best holiday garbs during a getaway in Crete.

‘Feeling HAPPY,’ he wrote, accompanied by a love heart emoji.

Fellow Strictly star Karen Hauer was quick to comment, posting her own love heart emojis.

Abbie, 23, shared the same snap on her own page, writing: ‘Making memories.’

Now we might have to put our Sherlock caps on for this, but we think this means they’re officially dating?

The couple, who’ve clearly been blessed by the gods of genetics as well as dance, were snapped together out in public last week.

AJ, who’s been giving plenty of Love Island advice to Curtis, was spotted with Abbie after they watched Neil and Katya Jones perform at their show, Somnium: A Dancer’s Dream.

Discussing the photos, AJ told OK! Magazine that they were in the early stages of dating.

‘I’m currently seeing another dancer [Abbie] but it’s very early days. I’m working constantly so I don’t get to see her too often, but I’m very happy,’ he said.

You coy man, you.

Hilariously, AJ’s mum Debi was also at the interview and was confused because she’d thought Abbie was just her son’s friend.

‘I’ve met her but I didn’t realise she was his girlfriend. I just thought she was a friend,’ she admitted.

Oh, to have been a fly on the wall in that conversation.

AJ, who previously said he wanted to be partnered with a ‘mature lady’ on Strictly, fell for Abbie ‘straight away’, sources claimed.

The Sun reported that they spent the May Day bank holiday together in London, before AJ headed to Nottingham to perform on the Strictly Professionals tour.

Abbie, from Surrey, has starred in the West End production of Cats the Musical and started rehearsals in February for AJ’s dance tour – which travelled around the UK.
