One person cheekily replied to the post: "Do AJ and Kai not speak, or is it such pure filth you cannot broadcast it?" with another adding: "Since they got questioned over their Bodyguard dance, maybe they are trying to keep quiet." A third person wrote: "I wonder the same thing. We never get mic’d moments from them."

Fans have been speculating whether AJ and Kai are together over the past few weeks, and the TV presenter acknowledged the rumours on Instagram on Tuesday. Kai posted a video of the pair dancing on Twitter, writing: "My Argentine tango queen. So so proud of you @AJOdudu #strictly." A fan replied: "If you two don't get married I’m going to have a breakdown."

Do you think the pair are together?

While AJ didn't say anything in response, she did reply with two laughing crying emojis, hinting that the pair are being very light-hearted about the dating rumours.

Chatting to HELLO! on Monday, former Strictly finalist Debbie McGee revealed why the pair have sparked such rumours with their performance, explaining: "You're playing a role so in the Argentine Tango, you've got to be passionate, you've got to be breathy, and those moments we saw with AJ and Kai… and yes if you fancy someone it's wonderful, but you have to make your viewers believe that you're in love with somebody."
