AJ's facts and stats

  • AJ reached 3 Semi-Finals in a row but was eliminated at this stage each time: with Claudia Fragapane in Series 14 (2016), with Mollie King in Series 15 (2017) and with Lauren Steadman in Series 16 (2018)
  • All 3 of AJ’s Semi-Final eliminations were ballroom routines: a Quickstep with Claudia (S14), a Waltz with Mollie (S15) and a Tango with Lauren (S16). Each time the judges unanimously saved the other couple sending AJ home
  • 5 of his 8 tens came when he danced with Saffron Burrows in Series 17 (2019), though this partnership saw his earliest Series exit after a Week 10 Samba
