There was no need.
As we all know, there is a rumour circulating that Mollie King is dating her Strictly Come Dancing partner, AJ Pritchard. While neither of them have confirmed whether or not they are an item, all eyes are on them for signs.
They’ve been spotted hanging out behind the scenes, in between practices and getting close.
It’s never really been mentioned on the show or by the Strictly team, until last night that is. What’s more, they all made things very awkward for poor Mollie and AJ.
The awkward incident happened after they had received their results from the judges. Bruno gave them a 9, which meant their overall score was 31. It marked their first time to receive 9 from any of the judges.
Naturally, Mollie was delighted with this and threw herself around AJ in celebration.
But then, all the dancers and crew started shouting, “kiss, kiss, kiss”, which left them both pretty red-faced.
Claudia Winkelman even followed with, “They’re all shouting kiss, we’d all like it but we’ll wait until the wrap.”
Viewers were left cringing too:
Well that “kiss kiss” bit wasn’t awkward at all! lol! #Strictly

“Kiss, kiss, kiss,” the #Strictly professionals spurring on @MollieKing and @Aj11Ace… and then @ClaudiaWinkle brings it all together by egging them on, too. Great score tonight, their first 9!
