During rehearsals for the Strictly final, Mollie and AJ looked closer than ever following their semi-final exit from the show. They joined Strictly’s returning stars from the series and were seen holding hands as they posed together.

Mollie then took to Instagram in a gushing post about her professional partner, as she told fans it felt ‘so good to be back dancing’ with him again. AJ re-posted the image to his own account and penned: ‘Back in ACTION with this STAR.’
