Aj Pritchards ex-girlfriend Abbe Quinnen claims he ended their relationship after she discovered messages from another woman on his phone. Former Strictly dancer AJ is now reportedly dating influencer Zara Zoffany, 27, just weeks after dumping Abbie 'out of the blue' last month.
The couple had been going through a difficult time after Abbie suffered third-degree burns when a Tik Tok tutorial went disastrously wrong in January 2021. Following the accident, the 25-year-old required surgery and has been left scarred for life, the Mirror reports.
Speaking of her 'devastation' over the break-up, Abbie revealed that she and AJ had discussed marriage just days before he told her he didn;t love her anymore. In an interview with The Sun, Abbie said: “I’m completely devastated and my world has fallen apart.
"AJ isn’t the person I thought he was, after everything I went through with him I thought we would be together forever. He has been the biggest disappointment to me.
"This has knocked my confidence after my accident and I need to rebuild myself now. AJ was my world and I didn’t recognise the guy who was breaking up with me."
Abbie went on: "I kept asking him about the girl from the messages, but from the moment I brought her up he completely changed. Just a few weeks back AJ and I went on a romantic holiday to Turkey, it was so lovely."
The heartbroken dancer said she had "so many plans for the future" with AJ and had wanted to get engaged to the ex Strictly pro next year and were even looking at buying a house together. Abbie says AJ's sudden change of heart felt "completely out of the blue to me."
While AJ was away filming Celebrity SAS, Abbie said that she missed him endlessly. But when he got back, things were so distant between them, and Abbie noticed that he was messaging a girl.
After quizzing him about the messages, AJ wasn't able to give Abbie answers and her world was 'turned upside down'. The blonde beauty said while AJ went grey during the break-up chat, she was shaking and crying and the waves of emotion crashed down on her.
The couple started dating back in 2019, after being introduced by mutual friends. The two first met when Abbie auditioned for his Get On The Floor Live tour and AJ fell for her immediately, as reported online.
They went on to dance together in shows as well as litter their Instagram with loved-up selfies. Both AJ and Abbie took to Instagram to announce the news as they shared a video showing them both smiling wildly and holding hands while on the Greek island of Crete.
AJ said he was "Feeling HAPPY" while sharing a red heart emoji, and Abbie declared they were “Making memories” as they shared the same image while going official. The Mirror has reached out to AJ's representatives and Zara for comment on this story.
