Mollie King denies AJ Pritchard romance

Mollie King is surprised that she is not "sick" of AJ Pritchard as they spend 12 hours together every day.
The Saturdays singer insists she is not dating her ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ professional partner and has instead dubbed them as "best friends".
She said: "No we are not together, promise! We get on so well. I think that’s maybe that’s why there are these rumours. We are literally like best friends. We spend so much time together. We’re training 12 hours a day and I still love spending every minute with him. It’s mad that you’re not sick of each other! With Strictly, they always like to think there’s a romance. Because we are both single, everyone loves a love story. We are loving the show so much. It’s the most incredible experience."
Meanwhile, AJ also revealed Mollie’s love of learning more has made her the perfect dance partner.
AJ said: "Mollie always wants to learn more. The quick step was a nightmare one. It only really clicked on the day. I do worry about that a lot. It was a worrying week."
Whilst talking about her dance skills, Mollie added: "I feel like I’ve really tried my best, we both have, to make me improve. That’s all I can do …
"I think people are consistently getting nines and tens now. But we were on cloud nine getting that nine! AJ has to put up with me teaching me everything."
Mollie and AJ are dancing the Rumba this week to ‘Hopelessly Devoted To You’ and the blonde star admits it is the "dance of doom".
Speaking on ITV’s ‘This Morning’, she shared: "I call it the dance of doom. It always seems to get people in the bottom two. It’s so hard."
