Twinkly-fingered star AJ moved on quickly with girlfriend Zara Zoffany after they met while filming MTV’s The Challenge, but their romance was said to have fizzled out last month.
said a source Sun at the time: ‘AJ was totally in love with Zara, but as time went on she got bored of him.
“Everything was very intense in The Challenge and they fell in love with each other. But out in the real world, when they started dating, everything was very different.

“Zara is very outgoing and she thought that AJ had changed. She really wasn’t happy and she ended it.
The source added: “AJ was hurt, of course, but it was for the best.”
AJ confirmed his romance with Zara in October when the pair were seen sharing a kiss while enjoying a shopping trip together.
It fizzled out: However, their romance is said to have fizzled out last month when Zara (pictured) noticed that AJ was much calmer at home while not filming for TV.
A beaming AJ put his arm around Zara, who is the founder of an exclusive London social club.
It was while filming the reality competition in South America that the 27-year-old fitness fanatic caught the ballroom dancer’s eye, AJ’s ex Abbie has claimed.
Abbie said everything was normal until AJ traveled to South America in September to film The Challenge.
Oh no: Abbie revealed that her ex-boyfriend AJ dumped her after she caught him texting another woman (pictured from July)
She said that for the first part of the trip things seemed fine between them, with the pair making video calls, but then her phone was taken away to film the show.
Abbie explained how, when he finally got his phone back, he “seemed completely distracted and different.”
AJ then returned home and the couple discussed proposals after seeing Ferne McCann get engaged on his TV show.
But then Abbie noted that he was on the phone a lot with someone he was on the show with, and that when she questioned him, he allegedly “became cold to her.”
In an exclusive chat with MailOnline in September, Abbie paid a loving tribute to AJ and praised his support as he recovered from second and third degree burns.
The dancer required three skin grafts after a YouTube video she was filming with AJ went horribly wrong and she saw a wine bottle explode and set her hair and clothes on fire on January 19, 2021.
Speaking to MailOnline, he said: ‘I can’t thank those at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital enough. AJ has been to every one of my dates, she’s always there holding my hand…he’s honestly the best.
‘However, I haven’t seen him for a while, I should see him tonight. He’s been filming something exciting, he’s top secret so I can’t tell you.
