AJ Pritchard refuses to "label" his sexuality.
The ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ professional thinks it is more important to "follow your heart" when it comes to relationships, rather than stick within the confines of society or a label.
He told Gay Times magazine: "You never know how times will change in where you are in your life. But it is always about being happy and being true to yourself. Like always following your heart – obviously listen to your brain – but really just at that time in your life. It is mad that everything always has to have a label, whether it be the clothes by designers or whether you are in a relationship.
"Everybody always wants to have that label when it is not always necessary. At that time of your life, whatever you are, or wherever you are, things always change. You can’t ever say never, because you don’t know what is around the corner. As long as you’re happy, that is the main thing. It’s something people forget way too often these days – getting so stressed thinking about what other people’s opinions are or what they need to do tomorrow."
AJ had previously admitted he is "open" to finding love again on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
Speaking before he took to the floor with Lauren Steadman during last year’s competition, he shared: "I’m happy people are interested in us. We’re both single and we will see what happens. I’m sure people will enjoy our romantic performance in our first show, which is going to be something special. I’m open to finding love."
